Here is my first layout a dx of super jester (1024 res), I hope you like it.

Thanks to compost corner for the images, adydb, razors back and pash for playtesting and pook for the helpful posts about lamping.

Controls: c = collect, ¬=cancel, 1 2 3 = holds and nudges, space = start, a = autoplay, 0 is pound in and f10 is toggle reels.

Thanks for playing it, please let me know what you think.

thanks alot, i had no idea this game was so popular i really only made it because i loved the game when i was younger. i really thought it would be removed from the database because nobody had downloaded it, but obviously i was wrong.

I used to play this at Skegness :) [lol] in the 'kids' area of some of the larger arcades there, and seeing it emulated has brought back memories - surely that is the best thing emulation can give?!

The fact it is your first release makes it the most impressive - I don't remember there as being a classic, and so AFAIK you have put together a pretty damn good DX release of a machine that hasnt had a layout released for it before!

Nice to see, I'm lookin forward to doing something over my halfterm [this week], to compensate for the Trig + Mechanics, and the Kirchhoffs laws if thats how you spell it :)

Watch this space for news on my first layout, It'll only be a couple of hours a day but I think it'll be ok-ish in the end!!!

I remember playing this as well when I was younger.

The version I played though was £4.80 Token Jackpot.

50p for Grapes. £1 for Melons. £2 for Bars. And £4.80 for Jokers.

Funny thing is I had started on a DX for this ages ago but didn't get around to finishing it.

Well done on your first layout. Not a bad one at all.

Bugs and Leeham released a Classic for this a while ago.

Have a look:

Can you just refresh my memory Pook on what your first DX was?

I'd like to see it so I can take the piss out of thee.

It was a PDX based around Farscape using the Superstreak roms, it's not on my site actually, not sure I still have it, I'll have to dig it out.

Here's the original release thread from FF.

I like Lo-Techs, you REALLY DON'T need a DX for them to feel realistic - just bung cash in and press 'George' like the grannys do :)

Seriously, I'll be digging through the old classic layouts over the next week, I'm sure most of the 7200 users [where the f**k did the come from / go??] haven't played the Classics as they look like Visual Basic - which is probably why I like the look of them!

Lord knows what I'll do as a layout - if anyone hs any recommendation and theres a flyer/scan available I'll have a shot, otherwise I'll do something weird, you can be sure of that!

I'm gonna mke myself out to be really stupid now but this is one thing I never understood about this machine when I was playing it back in the day in Blackpool and Skegness.... what exactly was the point of the 4 playing card symbols in the top left? Why did they light up? And what happened if you got them all?

[ady]

As I said to Hurtand165 i'm not at all happy with his DX..........


..........................


Couldn't leave the Bugger alone and I was late for work!!!!

Blinding release.....Really playable

[hurtand165]

the thing with the playing cards is when you light all of them you win the jackpot.

[msmat999]

yah but y do they light up in the first place, is it just random?

[hurtand165]

i have never seen a pattern and i had been playing it for hours while making it. no pattern to when the cards hold either.

[fruitymad2003]

Yep Well Done Mate. Cracking DX

[hurtand165]

thanks fruity i am sure your five liner will be good as well.

[fruitymad2003]

Not as good as that!!!!
