The Velvet Ascent

Tobias Duarte, 1989. Game for arcade cabinets.

Description

An arcade platform game by Tobias Duarte, 1989, read from the board’s ROMs.

Provenance

Found during a house clearance in Willowvale Springs and passed to Lazarus. The window labels had peeled and the EPROMs had been exposed to light, so each was read many times. The image matches a checksum published by the original distributor.
