Zippy Race - Sega SG-1000 to MSX conversionDescription

Don’t think this is gonna be a 100% Gold Remake, it’ll have its differences. Extra battles (some’ll be optionals, tough but rewarding), Hoenn Pokemon (in every area, and hard to find) New areas, Remapped some dungeons (so your old guides wont work) , Extra recurring characters (some’ll hate you, some’ll help you)

Note that the hack is incomplete but feel free to enjoy the hack as-is.

== USAGE ==

* Use your favourite IPS tool to patch the ROM dump with "ZIP2MSX.IPS"
  (it's called "Zippy Race (SG-1000) [!].sg" in GoodSMS, CRC32:BC5D20DF),
* optionally rename the game file extension to the standard used by MSX (.ROM),
* run the game on your MSX or MSX emulator with at least 64KB RAM, have fun!

Controls:

Keyboard: LEFT/RIGHT to steer, SPACE to drive, GRAPH to brake.
Joystick: LEFT/RIGHT to steer, TRG A to drive. TRG B to brake. (port 1)

On MSX2 or higher, hold down SELECT during boot to prevent 60hz mode,
and/or hold down BACKSPACE to prevent the palette from being changed.


== NOTES ==

The goal of this project was to get me a bit into Z80 ASM, this basically was
my first Z80 programming experience, I'm satisfied it succeeded. I've included
most of the source code (*.asm files) for the ones who are interested. The
rest of it was too messy to deserve inclusion :p

The result has been tested thoroughly on my (t)rusty old MSX2, it should work
fine for everybody.
