This is my take on this classic video fruit machine it's main feature apart from nudges was the ability to sidewind a reel when happy it would let you swap reel two for one or reel three for four and so on resulting in a win.
 
I borrowed the payboard art from Andy Tutton and Pembos art from mame I still think it looks ironed :/
 
keys are the usual affair
 
space start 
g gamble
c collect
s sidewind
c cancel
1 2 3 4 are hold/nudge
 
Thank you to andy and pembo for the art I have borrowed  for the pay board stanmarsh14 and the dadsfme testers and also Reg for assisting with the  meters and of course wizard for coding mfme.
 
Hope you enjoy and I don't get a bad review at dif :S

Thanks very much for this Alth, nice to see it finally getting released.  Definately prefer it's better looking sister, Spellbound, but when you consider this machine is the best part of 40 years old, ACE did a fantastic job in pointing the way to the future of fruit machines.

Not had a chance to try it out yet, but thanks so much both to you Altheric and Wizard, without whom I wouldn't ever be able to play video fruities while listening to the time tunnel on Heart FM lol.
