I was reading a comparison of sabre wulf on the spectrum, cpc, bbc micro and c64.
It claimed that the yellow orchid could not be collected..
is this a bug or is it part of the cpc version?
I've only ever seen it disappear just as you enter a room. Which would seem to suggest that it's a bug that it doesn't appear, unless I'm seeing things. :)
Interesting... I thought the yellow orchid had been left out of the CPC version on purpose.
I don't remember ever seeing it.
In fact back in 2008 I wrote a Sabre Wulf remake (sadly incomplete), and I only included the other 4 orchid colours because I was basing my remake on the CPC version!
This video was not uploaded by me, and looks a bit jittery (however the game itself runs at 60fps), but you get the idea.
I really should finish/rewrite it some day.
