Game Overview
This is the DOS Conversion of Knightmare originally a MSX vertical scrolling shooter computer game. The player is a knight, who has to fight his way through several levels. Knightmare was an innovative upward-scrolling Shoot 'em up game on the MSX system. The top-view graphics were considered very sophisticated for its time, similar to other MSX games such as Nemesis and Penguin Adventure. The graphics are also notable for being developed with a keen awareness of the Texas Instruments TMS9918 Video Display Controller that the MSX incorporated. The enemies (notably the bats) had additional shadow sprites that, being placed at a vertical offset, did not add further pressure on the max-4-sprites-per-scanline limit of the TMS9918.Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
