Today I did some work on the archive. The following changes were done:

Today I've released an update of the MoonBlaster v1.4 driver.

Changes in this version:

• fixed lock-up in sample ram detection
• fix bug disallowing filenames without extensions in DOS1

The first fix caused the driver not to complete loading at all, which makes this a pretty important bugfix.

The driver can be downloaded from my Home Page or MSX Banzai!.

This is how it would look when finishing the game in 1 second:
