MANIC MINER for the NGPC has been killed off by those helpful people at
Jester Interactive

Manic Miner originally written by Matthew Smith in 1983 for the Sinclair Spectrum and published by Bug-Byte and Software Projects. There have been many other versions for various machines including the PC.

I decided to do Manic Miner as my first NGPC project as the original 8-bit computer versions have fairly low numbers of colours and basic graphics. This version uses a mixture of Tiles with Sprites and the display scrolls to compensate for the lower resolution on the NGPC, but the graphics will be the same as the original Spectrum Version, but it may have the extra 12 levels from the Oric version.
