I have gone back to this game recently and was looking at the 2 player option. If you pick the 2 player option then type ALLY that's the way I have been playing it to see if I can complete the game more quickly.

In ALLY mode both players travel together as one.

In the 2 player game both players have all the items from the shop available to them but obviously there are still only 1 of each of the other game item in the game.

The way I figured that two players would have extra carrying capacity amongst other things. I haven't completed to the end so don't know if this is going to work.

The ALLY command is a cool feature.

Strangely, I've just been corresponding with the author and have popped a page up about the Hopesoft games here... http://8bitag.com/info/hopesoft.html
