No music without MSX-Music but it works.
I can't always switch carousel. Did I miss something?

Do you mean reaching the second row? That's the challenge, but bear in mind you can move the claw while it's falling. Dodge and weave!

Thank you Ro! I couldn't quickly figure out how the tries counter managed to get past 0, but I changed the logic a bit so that if it does happen the game will catch and correct it instead of letting the counter underflow. If anyone is extracting the COM file from the DSK and lost track of which version is which, the new one has a "V1.1" in the bottom right hand corner of the title screen.

Glad you're enjoying it, thanks for playing!

Also, I really shouldn't have forgotten to mention this in the requirements, but the FM-PAC isn't the only audio module this game supports. Plug in an SFG and see what happens!
