Kid Saviour was to be a Giana Sisters clone by Roy Fielding, who did some music work and also did Hectic 2 back in the early 90's.
All the hard work according to Roy was done, with decent collision, scrolling and sprite animation ... but he never got to finalize the baddies or the maps/levels. It just had one test level overall.
Sadly Roy swapped his C64 back in 1992/93 and gave all his disks away with it, so the source is sadly lost. However there is faint hope in the form of another ex-C64 developer which we are quizzing at the moment.
He has kept all his disks, and Roy sent him a copy of the test level many moons ago. So the search is on, and we could hopefully see some remains of this interesting Mario/Giana clone very soon! More soon on this one we very much hope!...
Frank.
