Rick Dangerous releaser

Who is the one that releases the game? Not the publisher? If so, the article should be corrected as Rainbird Software published the game, and not Core Design. If not, pardon my ignorance. Gelbard 08:08, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bug in the PC version

I seem to remember that some of the PC versions shipped had nasty bug. I actually owned a copy with this bug.

Basically, it was impossible to get past one bit on (I think) level 2. There was a trap which fired a spear at you as you tried to jump over a spike pit. Due to the bug, it was impossible to make the jump and avoid being hit by the spear.

I can't find any info on it now. Does anyone else remember this? Mojo-chan 13:40, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:RD2screen.png

Image:RD2screen.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 03:28, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Low priority??

Pity this is low priority for "Wikipedia 1.0". The Rick Dangerous games were classics from the 16-bit Amiga/Atari ST gaming era. 216.94.11.2 17:43, 12 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rick Dangerous 2 - connection to "Flash Gordon" movie

I think it is an oversight that the only mentioned reference is to Indiana Jones movie. I belive there is obvious reference of RD2 to the "Flash Gordon" movie. This is why Rick's costume is changing aa the beginning of second game - it is now related to the different story. See also game's box art: compare villain in bottom right corner with the movie poster. Apparently this is not only my opinion - please compare with [1]. -- Piotr b (talk) 12:15, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
