First PC Remake (before I created Cave Heroes): Seesaw Circus

Yep, even I released Cave Heroes first on this forum, this game was wrote before it and was originally released at BOYAC comminty, due this game was designed to use in a M.A.M.E (An arcade emulator) cabinet using a game frontend.

So, this is just a really tiny little game based on a old arcade classic with name Circus by Exile. The arcade game rom's is even downloadable from the M.A.M.E homesite without any illigal.

Due this was meant as a arcade game, there is a simple credit mode (5 key, just like M.A.M.E) support as well very configurable by config.ini (you should look into that before running the game), example widescreen or normal screens.

This game is by default set to windowered (yep, not fullscreen, I prompenty "forget" fullscreen as default while I was created the game, and that is half year ago or such), 4x3 resoltions, but DONT use widescreen options in windowered mode, or it would look wrong (works only for fullscreen).

Hope you enjoy the really little tiny game and was fun to do creat this game again (it was second time I did that remake, originaly it was a loading game for the java game I created, a unofficiel Space Taxi game).

PS. The game really need a nice looking modern skin (the game is skinnable too and should been simply), not far the style of my other remake, Cave Heroes. The game is included Blitz Max source code..... But 100% playable.

PS. I also created Space Taxi as well Cheeky Mouse as remakes to, but it was a java game and can been played at my homepage, http://www.spacefractal.com, but I think I should post it as own thread, even these game is somewhere old, these is not a real PC game.

This is actually pretty good. Perfect little game to stick in a cabinet, though I'd like to see how it plays with a joystick compared to a mouse.

you need a analog joystick if you want to play with joystick (like UltraStick 360 from Ultimarc). You can't play this game with a digital joystick.
