'''Dick Tracy''' is an adaptation of a movie (with Warren Betty and Madonna sexy as hell) based on an famous american Comic book franchise.
 
 
== Information ==
This game exists on CPC version and GX4000/PLUS cartridge.
The 2 versions are quite different (better graphics for the Cartridge) yet none are really good. Too bad as this could have been a decent [[Robocop]]-like game.  Concerning the Cartridge version : Again, the major flaw was the too heavy use of the Hardwired sprites for the characters sprites (player or creeps) : those are DATA-heavy and slow to "animate" properly, as the 16 slots are too few for a proper animation with numerous frames or simply to feature enough enemies on the screen (the same probelm with [[Robocop 2 ( Cartridge )|Robocop 2]] yet this one turn to be more a platformer than a shooting-punks-game). Yet the scrolling is quite decent, fluid and smooth. And graphics are colourfull, the hard-sprites being in pseudo Mode1 with 15 colours. ==Comparison== [[File:Dick tracy cpc screenshot.png]][[File:Dick tracy cartridge screenshot.png]] CPC and Cartridge versions.
