Kai Temple is a budget title for ZX Spectrum, where the player tries to defeat waves of guards in a dull race against time.
Developer Message#
Hidden in the game is a message from coder Ian Wright. This can be found in the .tzx dump starting at hex address 0x755D and is repeated multiple times in the game. Spaces were added after the periods and commas for easier reading.
When my game is loading the screen buffer it makes a long whining noise due to all the 0's.
So to stop this I have inserted this really interesting message. This is my first ever
machine code game. Looking back I can see where I have gone wrong, and where the programming
is not as good as it could be. Such as the really slow sprite routine, and the scrappy
detection routines. Well at least next time the programming will have improved.
I dedicate this game to me, because I deserve it.
