For 020 Amiga CD32 +FDD users:

Unfortunately the game hangs up when it shows the game screen.
You must delete "GOSUB940" in the line #160.


Heading & Kick

Release:
"Program Pochette" Jan. 1987 Issue
Program length:
9 screens
Z: Jump to the left.,   X: Jump.,   C: Jump to the right.,   G: Restart the current level.

For disk users:

hkick-graphical-glitch
A minor graphical glitch occurs after restarting the current level even once.
This is because Disk Basic always writes other data to F1AFH, F1B0H, F1B1H, and F1B5H.
To prevent this, modify the line #20 as below.
hkick-line20
If you modify the code as described above, each checksum will change as follows. (Use version 3.1 coded by the "MSX•FAN" team.)
hkick-checksum
Sorry if there are any typos, however, I have tested my data, including the ending, and had no problems.
This game is originally for tape. The 1st disk's work area will be destroyed after RUN the program, so do not save or load file(s) once you RUN this program.
Turn off your MSX once if you want to modify the program further.

Joystick support:

"STICK(0)" is found in the lines #90, #110 and #280.
"STRIG(0)" is also found in the lines #90 and #110. The quickest way is to simply replace each "0" with "1".
In addition, modify the code as below.
hkick-joystick
This is for Amiga CD32 and SNES+AD adapter users. Real MSX or modern emulator users must swap "STRIG(1)" with "STRIG(3)" in the line #265.
hkick-screen Trigger 1: Jump to the left.,   D-pad up: Jump.,   Trigger 2: Jump to the right.,   Hold D-pad down & Trigger 2: Restart the current level.

For Amiga CD32 users:
Unfortunately you cannot move the main character if your CPU is 020.
