Maps In Progress / Re: The Amazing Spider-Man (Dos)

« on: April 11, 2011, 02:18:10 pm »

Hey!  I remember this game!  When visiting family in Toronto back in like 1993 (or thereabouts), my cousin had this game on his computer!  I never got very far, but it was fun at the time.  This is the one where Spider-Man's health is represented by an image of him that turns skeletal as he takes damage, right?

Yep, that is the one. Here's how the "not-creepy-at-all" health bar looks like

It's pretty annoying actually to beat the game, because the save system doesn't work as it should. It only saves on takes (where the movie clappers are) and even that is lost if you exit the game. Yes, you'll have to start over and some of the puzzles are pretty frustrating and time consuming for reruns.

And this is a "No stars version"

There's only one stars only screen and it is available ingame - "Starry Starry Night"
Another question - some of the rooms are not in their initial state (e.g. buttons were pushed and stuff have moved), should I fix those?

Here is the spiderless map without the tips. I've put one Spidey on the starting position. There are no items in this game, only switches and levers and some of them are hidden.


Also should I remove the starry starry background or leave it?

Thank you for the input, I'll proceed with removing the spiders. Does the moving enemies have to be removed too?

Also I guess I'll have to remove the "protips" from the clean map and leave it for the guides.

Gentlemen,
This is my WIP


Clearly I've missed a couple of screens (the dummies) and there's also one of the sewers missing and the last two I have yet to reach.
Protips and such will be helpful.

Is it necessary to remove the Spidey from every screen or it could be left as it is?
