The Ultra from PSS (1983) by J.B. Marshall
No transfer errors (fully tested).
Can be used with a PASE joystick with the program Joystick Adapter 1.
FUN: if you leave the demo running, you'll see that the computer sometimes makes it to level 2 !
Many versions of this program were released.
Oric-1 only / UK version:
-------------------------
The first version was Oric-1 only and had a white sticker saying "Approved Oric Software" (see General Look picture). First side had the fast recording, and side 2 had the slow recording. The tape is black and red, labelled "Oric 16/48K".
Instructions are on the inlay, nothing on inlay_b.

Atmos compatible / UK and FR version:
-------------------------------------
This second version still had the inlay is labelled "Oric-1", but a yellow sticker on the tape box says "Atmos compatible" (See General Look picture (GL)). The tape is black and red, labelled "Oric 16/48K" on side 1 and "Oric v1.1 & Atmos" on side 2.
Instructions in English are on the inlay, nothing on inlay_b.

Atmos/Oric-1 / FR version 1:
----------------------------
French version, released by PSS and "Micro et Logiciels", with the French instructions now included on the inlay - and this time, inlay_b has instructions printed on it.
This version now has the inlay labelled "Oric-1/Atmos" and not only Oric-1. The tape is white, labelled "Oric 16/48K" on side 1 and "Oric v1.1 & Atmos" on side 2.
The program itself was strictly the same (not translated).

- tape side B: [ultra_tape_b_fr1.jpg]
- program on side A: Oric-1 only version [ultra_o.tap]
- program on side B: Oric-1/Atmos version [ultra_a.tap]
Atmos/Oric-1 / UK version: missing? Does it exist?
--------------------------
Atmos/Oric-1 / FR version 2:
----------------------------
French version, released by PSS and "PRISM", with a different French inlay. The instructions have been translated again, in a much better way! French instructions are on the inlay, nothing on inlay_b.
The tape is black and red, labelled "Oric 16/48K" on side 1 and "Oric v1.1 & Atmos" on side 2.
FUN: it seems the side A and B labels were reversed, and that they corrected this mistake by adding the correct labels over the previous ones.
The program itself was strictly the same (not translated).
