The novella included, is the original
Midnight Chronicles that was in the box, back in the day. I only checked a few paragraphs but I gather they didn't change it. Chris Wild was very respectful to Mike Singleton and his work, rest in..
Do not expect here the new novel
The Lords of Midnight.
48MB this game.. 48K the original, bit of retro-chuckle there. Although in correct numbers the original filled the full memory of the ZX Spectrum, which was actually 32K if you removed the screen data. Mike Singleton managed to barely fit the data into the machine. The code was so densely put that there wasn't even space for the loader and it had to take up part of the screen (of course it wasn't visible). There wasn't even space left to have a "saved game". Not convinced yet?.. It was so packed that there wasn't space left to even begin a new game.. You had to re-load the game again if you wanted to start again!
And it was a
good game, ahead of its time..
