we write the year 2013 - about 15 years after ik+ was originally released by system 3 , arndt (|) and me (herpes) got seriously pissed off by the interruptions during gameplay - we wanted to kick each other's ass and not kick bombs or deflect balls!  that's the reason i started to analyze the game. to be honest i did not do it on an original amiga although i own a couple of them as well as an action replay mk iii - i just used the winuae debugger (shift+f12 during gameplay) and started to set some breakpoints :-) since i am a natural born lamer it took me quite a while and i was very grateful that arndt (|) joined in and so we had a lot of fun ripping the game apart. by the way - i am really astonished how 'robust' ik+ is against all the nops we inserted to find out the correct routines...         end of prologue ... now to the main part:                         howdy fellow nerds of the c= treffen graz! today@ctg '0d' - the final release of the hacked ik+ game hits the 'nerdy' public. way back in 2012 @ctg'0b' i already showed a quick and dirty pre-release where it was possible to play ik+ without the annoying bomb-kick and ball-deflection interruptions. anyway there where some problems with level counting, with the loader and with different ram  and os configs. this should be fixed by now (at least i hope so). i tested it with 512kb up to 2mb chip ram with and without fast- and slow-ram - os1.3 and os3.1. it should just work. if you find a bug, please drop me a mail:        amix@pc-dome.com           	... i decided to pack everything into one file since i had troubles with the huge binary  and the loader.  anyway it's more handy now.             and now the inevitable greetings:          all the fellow nerds at commodore treffen graz austria:  lara, martinland, flexman, berniemac, mav, logiker, lord lotek, peter - and all those guys i can not remember their nicks.      all the hardware gurus from the a1k.org board - my favorite german board!all the hard-core coders on    eab.abime.net board - my favorite english board.  of course not to forget the wonderful people i started the fun-crew 'sign' in the 90s: anarcho, anus, molly butterkeks and jugo korl (rip).                         there is fortunately nothing more to type ... system is about to restart the scroll text! 10 ... 9 ... 8 ... 7 ... 6 ... 5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... 0 ... restart!
