The infinite lives trick looks like an "underflow" bug. Basically, loose 2 lines when you have one. You end up with -1 lives which the game interprets as "max" lives.
@saltystick_992 жыл бұрын
Pretty much. Though it doesn't become '-1' because then it could theoretically expand to an infinite number of lives. It has a cap of 255 and causing the glitch makes it that number. Which...Is still more than enough for the staircase sequence.
@rollanddev2 жыл бұрын
@@saltystick_99 I'm not sure what you mean by "theoretically expand to an infinite number of lives". As a signed 8bit value, 0 - 1 will result in 0xFF, which is interpreted as "-1". As an unsigned 8bit value, 0 - 1 will result in 0xFF as well. Only this value is interpreted as "255" rather than "-1", being unsigned -- (this is the case with the game, with the ghost in the door likely forgetting to call the "check if we're out of lives" code and allowing the player to continue playing with "0" lives) Neither of these cases (the value being signed or unsigned) can possibly make the player's lives "infinite" though. The ghosts can still kill the player and correctly check if the game over screen needs to be called once the player's 255 lives run out.

I know if one were to die 255 times (or 254, I don't know if dying to underflow would count to that), then the player would get a game over.

The distance you need to drive is the path you created with your logo on the map screen. What is not displayed in the NES version are the path marks you leave on the map. In the C64 version that is displayed. You are drawing a path, that hits as many ghosts as possible, then you drive somewhere, following the path and you will encounter the ghosts on your way that got stuck on your path, so you can suck them up with a ghost vacuum cleaner you can buy at the shop.

Don't let it build. Move your cursor around the map to block the ghosts attracted to zuul. Those are the ghosts you vacuum & the distance you drive is the distance you covered on the map using the cursor. Tap on the doors to try & get the ghosts to go inside. We used the NES Advantage for turbo mode. Get sound gen & ghost suit. Ghost bait messes you up. We did this constantly. GIT GUD. Props for beating it.

The reason the distance in the car segments changes is because its based on how much you move around on the map. It makes you drive longer the more you move the cursor on the map. So if you move from the gas station directly to the shop the driving distance will be low. If you move the cursor from the gas station down to the hq then to the zuul building and end at the shop, even though the destination is the same you route you took with cursor is longer so the driving stage reflects that.

Woah! - shop items: there's a sucktion to catch the yellow map-ghosts. They are the time-limit of the game, so... There's also a google which makes you easier to catch ghosts invading houses (the ghosts float otherwise behind the walls, and can be seen only when at windows). There's also the Marshmanllow Man trap - any time MM destroys a house hurts you 5-10K $, which is a lot. - the supertrap has I think 15 charges - not entering a red house happens if you accidentaly entered the house on the other side of the street. You have to push the direction beside clicking the action button. - the Zuul-building opens up when the city accumlates enough PK-energy. Nothing to do with your money. -

"I don't know why it's so far to get to the shop." I can answer that. The distance you need to travel to get to your chosen destination is actually directly tied to how much you moved around on the map screen before choosing where to go. "I don't know why but I just got kicked out of there." Maybe you actually drove to the building to the left rather than the one that was blinking. Can't say for sure. "The Zuul Building always opens up once you get a certain amount of cash." That is correct. The Ghost Vacuum is a good item because it lets you catch the ghosts you see on the map screen by going over them, then using it when they appear on the road screen. The game manual itself recommends using a turbo controller. Probably more like ~127 lives if it's an underflow. I feel like you can shoot the Marshmallow Man to push him back down the building if you really need to.

The ghost vacuum (which you ignored) can let you capture ghosts on the road, which otherwise give the PKE a boost when they get to the Zuul Temple.

1:30 It was 1000m the first time and 200m the second time because the game determines distance by the actual path you traced moving the GB icon around town. The C64 version actually drew your path as you moved the icon. Trace a short trip, drive a short distance. 3:40 The Zuul building opens when the PKE level reaches the max. If you buy the PKE meter you can track it. 4:45 Stay Puft comes out when the PKE level reaches a certain point, but not enough to summon Zuul. You can buy the ghost vac to catch the ghosts in the map screen. Equip the ghost vac, trace a path through a ghost then catch it with the Ectomobile as you drive through them. You can buy ghost bait and drop it if Stay Puft begins to form to stop it. Every ghost on the map that reaches the Zuul building raises the PKE level by 100. 8:00 Why 20 floors? Watch the movie. Why are they so slow? Watch the movie. Why'd they choose that mechanic to move them? IDFK.

The more you move the logo on the overhead map screen, the longer your drive is, which is why you should buy the Ghost Alarm ASAP, then you can drive straight from bust to bust once you get the super trap, and cut down on drive time significantly. Of course I played the game when new, like 35 years ago, so maybe that knowledge was lost between then and now, and only I remember it.

U can also switch Ghostbusters in the capture screen by pressing Select. Also, it's cross the streams 😉

I rented this many times from the local Movie Land as a kid, I tried to like it because it was Ghostbusters. Never made it up the stairs as a kid.

I wish I knew all this when I was about ten years old. My own childhood experience was described perfectly by AVGN.

On the MSX version, you had an item to trap the Marshmallow man and they gave you cash for preventing him from destroying the building.

You can also walk up closer to the building which makes getting them even easier.

They should have had a single ghost in the ZUUL Building or allow firing beams to damage ghosts.

Liked this on atari 7800 as a kid. Give it a try. Would love to see ur frustration dealing w staypuff attacks XD. Aand as another mentioned ur trip length is determined by the path u create on the map. Ty and take shprt trips.
@adamkrasneski36792 жыл бұрын
To be clear, the atari has these weird little switches on the front (i dont remember what theyre for, reset maybe?) and staypuff runs on the screen, u flip the switches a particular way and he runs off the screen w out attacking a building.

Either beat it faster with glitch or typical spam even now with the 100k which makes you own it, I would suggest laying ghost food half way and everytime they are atleast a floor below you put one each time on the far right, it should keep them out of the way and slower.
