Release id #218010 : Miner 2019er +2D

Why is 7 a downvote? 7 is "OK, but nothing outstanding".
From work I know that US people and Germans interpret 1-10 scales differently.
US: 10=Outstanding, 9=Good, 8=Average, 7 and below=Shit
Germans think more in percentages where 70% is an "OK, but nothing special" vote for docs and 2 counter trainers added to a multi-filer but rest left in original state. No dependency on the releasing group.
Just my few cents.

I'm sure there is/are other thread(s) about the topic of "downvotes" elsewhere, these for example: What's downvoting... , Anonymous Downvoters / Haters , (Of course they are closed for a reason ;)), downvoting (still open! Take your chance before it's closed too!).

It's a very popular topic.

Didi: I was thinking it was more 5=average and anything above is "better".

I suspect this is one that can be level packed & IFFLed, if I am not wrong the file browniglo.prg is just the sprites on the main game screen which will free up space between 0800-0fff for some nice custom loader code.

Does the original game also keep the ladder on level one when restarting it due to loosing a life?

Following on from the slow loading comments....

Also the memory depack for the KOALA & MUSIC in addition to the SFX packing on the main PRG is slowing startup too. Then it loads the game, exom 3.1 f-memory depacks an loads many unpacked assets as tiny files too.

Demanding a properly packed, fast loading release is considered "butt hurt" nowadays, Knight :)

Seems the quick intro link (yaya, even trainers!) was required given the recent release flood on this (actually well playable and nice) title :)

I must have missed the part where something prevented you from making your own release if you don't like this one.

Oh, I did not notice this discussion before.

Phew ... fortunately, I did not vote a 6 as I originally intended. :D

Still, I'm glad to see that a simple vote on a release sparks such a lively discussion. C-64 scene is alive and kicking!
