I think we did ourselves poor service by hacking the game too early! Playing in order teaches you some of the tricks of the trade and you gain experience and better insight into the game mechanics. It was surprisingly much easier this time around. On a whim I decided to actually try play and beat every level of Supaplex, and this time do it patiently, one by one, in order, so I could keep track. I think dad managed to beat a few more levels this way, but we haven’t played too much, as we were both on to different hobbies by then.Ĭhapter 4 (after 2012): Years passed, but still have the retro-gaming itch awakening from time to time. My first reaction – was “Wow, so this is how it was supposed to be all along!”. We didn’t know it back then, and eventually both of us kinda gave up.Ĭhapter 3 (~2002): Fast forward again, and I discovered the “speedfix” version.

Part of the problem was that the PC was too fast and the game was running at the wrong speed.
Still, I don’t think he managed to beat more than half of the levels, and I probably could ever do like 25 of them (including maybe the first 15-20). Although he did not have as much experience as me with gaming in general, it quickly became obvious that dad plays Supaplex better than me. I was mostly watching.Ĭhapter 2 (~1996): Several years later, when we got our first PC in the mid-nineties, we discovered Supaplex, which seemed a near-perfect clone, with puzzles just as hard and interesting! We quickly discovered the save file hack which allowed to mark all levels as “completed” so we could play them in any order. «My history with Supaplex is very long, spanning several different time periods.Ĭhapter 1 (1990): When I was about 6 years old, my dad and I played Boulder Dash in some computer club and enjoyed it thoroughly (especially dad). I am truly grateful for being able to play it so early on. I have as you can imagine so many diferent emotions and fragments of life linked to this game. Looks like there are so many new levels! This game is immortal!Īh, thanks for taking your time reading.
I think I am ready for some more Supaplex. I feel better now, with melancholy I remember that sad moment, but at the same time the fun I had playing that challenging and amazing game, all the time I invested on it. What was worst, I felt like I didn’t want anything to do with the game again, I don’t know, just felt that way. Sadly, that very same day my cat died, I was devastated, felt really bad for days. It was years later, 2011 that I found out about level editors and newer versions of the game, I was so thrilled, I was finally making my own levels while remembering and replaying the game. I also remember making my own “levels” on paper, using a pencil and a little of imagination. I remember showing this game to friends and family, I remember the joy of making the level “Run for your life” completely black. Mom made me a cake and we celebrated with my brother and a friend. This was 16 years ago, I was 12 years old and had finally beat all 111 levels of Supaplex. I sent you a picture I already have online. Actually an anonymous Internet traveller suggested me this page after I went on typing without thinking while remembering the game. I been reading some stories in the official website. «First of all, thanks for making this amazing game.
