RodMan
A downloadable game
Guide RodMän around the maze, collecting the round purple things. Also collect the yellow diamonds because they're bombs and can be used to blow up RodMans enemies.
When moving around, avoid the things which are also moving around, as they aren't very nice.
Apparently, the things that move are called
● Naughtly Nic
● Dirty Tim
● Desperate Dave
● Spurious Pete
● Teflon Timmy
Although no one knows why.
There are three levels, and each level has three screens:
● Garden
● House
● Basement
Giving a total of nine unique screens.
Digital download includes 6 different versions (Commodore64, Commodore VIC-20 + 16k extra mem, ZX-Spectrum, and few versions for Atari 8-bit)
20.03.2021 more versions added! MSX, Oric and Amstrad
18.05.2021 C16 version added

I may have found an issue with the Atari 5200 version of the game. We played it on Friday on the ZeroPage Homebrew stream and after approx 9 minutes the screensaver kicked in and none of the buttons on the joystick were able to disable it.
Here's a link to just before the screensaver kicked in on the ZPH stream.
Excellent game and super fun but it switched to hard mode when the screensaver goes on!
Oh,
I have no experience about Atari 5200 HW and that version was a very quick (and dirty) test.
I didn't even know that A5200 has this kind of feature :D
..but It's a nasty bug (of course)
I absolutely love the Vic20 version. It's brilliant, great graphics, very playable and with nice sound! Great job!
Thanks,
All versions use same gameplay source code, but VIC-20 resolution works better than others
I should organize a Rodman tournament here at home, inviting friends to play on the real Vic20! =P
Cool,
I would love to see video or pictures :D
Nice version for Atari 8 bits ! Please as soon as you can, make Rodman Jr and other of your games to Atari 8 bits too. Atarians will be very grateful to you. Cheers.
Awesome version for VIC 20
No ZX81?
very good
Hello!
Just purchased a copy of Rodman from TFW8B for C16. Many thanks. Was hoping to grab a PRG to stick on the SD2IEC, if that's at all possible?
Hi,
I added D64 file for C16. I'm pretty sure it works on the SD2IEC
Will give it a shot at the weekend!
Many thanks!
This works great.
Many thanks!
Any chance of the Oric version being added to the list? Outside of the sold out Special Edition boxed set it’s not available anywhere.
Oric, Amstrad CPC and MSX versions added! Enjoy!
Thank you!
Cool game. If I recall correctly, I thought that I saw a video of the C64 .tap version of Rodman a long time back. Any chance for a .tap version to be added to itch?
Hi! ..and thanks
Sorry, I don't have a turbo loader version of Rodmän (that official version) just right now. Daniel Kahlin made it and he's busy.
Okay, no problem.
