Hard thing is that it is about 300kb in size. but hardest thing is that the name is "Hero"

I would really like the 1.1 version.

The game was made by a man named Brad Miller.

The game is a dungeon crawler whit randomly generate levels.

You start of in a forest with a shopkeeper and a staircase down to the first level. this start consist of one screen. Every level in the dungeon consist of 9 randomly generate screens.

Game uses 16 colors and is top down.

So what Im looking for is: Hero v1.1 by Brad Miller.

1.1 is probably going to be impossible to find. Found a couple other forum requests with no luck.

Can probably find 1.0 though. Sure 1.1 exists?

Yeah, all I found is 1.0 on one of those abandonware sites. I see no proof that 1.1 or 1.2 actually exists other than people asking for it. 1.0 seems to work just fine under dosbox though. Fired right up.

Ok. There was 1.0, 1.1, and 2.0. I don't see a reference to 1.2.

Shit that Brad Miller is quite a bloke. I dunno how he finds time to make games, even old DOS ones.
I did a google fer him thinking maybe he had a site with this game on it.
In addition to being a super hero without powers
