Put Up (DOS)

Put Up

Platform: DOS Year: 1991 Developer: Sphinx Software

Put Up is an arcade game with puzzle elements, which was originally released in 1987 on the 1987-10 issue of MSX Magazine as a program listing, programmed by Yuichi Ago (吾郷裕一さん). Your goal is to pass through as many rounds as you can, avoiding enemies, collecting fruits, and obtaining the keys for exit.

This unofficial DOS version was developed by Valery Bostan in Moldova in August 1991, credited as Sphinx Software (part of Friends Software), distributed both independently and as part of the ASIO package for the SeleN Sound Card (an ISA Stereo-On-1 Covox clone, manufactured in Chisinau). It features the original first 15 rounds but adds 35 new ones.

Screenshots

The title screen. High scores. The very first round. Opened an exit. Bitten by tooth monster! Game Over.

Music

The game contains two music tracks - one for title and one after game over when you get high score. In most cases if not in all, the game developers of Sphinx Software / Friends Software arranged the music for their games. Music was written using Sound Wave Pro, a tracker software by the same company.

Recording

Recording was made using OpenMPT.

Music and sound files are located in the game root directory. PUTUP9.DAT contains raw sound effects. PUTUP10.DAT and PUTUP11.DAT are Scream Tracker 2 modules.

For some reason the music file headers are masked with dots, making impossible to play them using many STM players.

The game rip also includes STM music files with fixed headers, recognizable by many players, and sound effects converted to WAV format.

Audio Devices

The game uses PC Speaker in RealSound mode to play music and sound effects.

It doesn't seem to support any special sound card and there is no audio setup.
