Regarding my edit

My edit earlier to the article was reverted, due to being "unconstructive". I edited the article because I didn't think the Criticism, Debate and Tips sections were encyclopedic, and because the Tournament section needed citations. If I am wrong, please explain to me how. Thank you. 90.231.13.46 (talk) 16:28, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Clones

The article currently states that the game is nowadays known as curvefever in the very beginning of the article and at the infobox. Curvefever is just a clone though and not the original game. Though it is maybe nowadays the most popular game with the "curve and wholes idea", the first sentence and the infobox are just wrong. I never edited an article nor did I undo revisions. Can someone else do? (if my arguments are correct...). --Pseudopseudonym (talk) 12:38, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Curve Fever is just a clone. This page is about the original game, and it seems to be becoming a promotion page for Achtung clones. I've improved the article slightly, though the article is still in horrible shape. 87.195.132.237 (talk) 19:52, 14 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am trying my darndest to separate Curve Fever from Achtung, die Kurve! The Dutch translation is about Curve Fever, but all the other translations have their facts mixed up. The English version should be called Achtung, die Kurve!, instead of Curve Fever. The Dutch translation should be spun of as its own subject, for that one is completely unrelated to Achtung, die Kurve!. I'm doing my best to parse the facts in the other languages, but unfortunately English and Dutch are my only spoken and written languages. Any help would be greatly appreciated. --Kevin_HMG (talk) 11:10, January 4th, 2018 (CET). —Preceding undated comment added 10:11, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Multiplayergame?

There are actually some verisons of this game that can be played singleplayer. There are a few actung die kurve versions with singleplayer mode and there are also ipcurve. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.217.12.248 (talk) 14:33, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about the original Achtung, die Kurve! and whether there are clones out there with singleplayer capability is not relevant when talking about the original game. But I'd say anyone is allowed to add a chapter about the clones and their improvements towards the original game. --F4LL0UT (talk) 13:27, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also the article starts "Achtung, die Kurve!, nowadays Curve Fever," which is quite irritating. The original game is just "Achtung, die Kurve" and there is the clone "curvefever", which has nothing but the basic game idea in common with the original one. --Pseudopseudonym (talk) 12:24, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Similar GBC game?

I remember playing a game similar to this on my game boy, but they piloted mechanical snakes that fire missiles. They also didn't die immediately when they crashed on walls/their tails. I forgot the game's name though, and I think it deserves to be mentioned in clones and remakes.120.28.71.147 (talk) 01:19, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Version for Wii

I heard that there is also a version of Zatacka for the Wii-Console. Could anyone add a link to this in the "Clones and remakes" section please? 84.115.137.46 (talk) 22:51, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done! 84.115.129.116 (talk) 22:54, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Damn, this was fast dude! Wikipedia is so fucking great shit. Love this page. 84.115.137.46 (talk) 23:00, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is indeed so fucking great shit. 9+6+1+1 87.78.3.205 (talk) 22:13, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What is this I don't even?

From the article's introduction: "The game is a mode for Microsoft Paint." Can someone please explain to me what that's supposed to mean? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.216.213.97 (talk) 08:30, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Another clone or original?

I remember playing a version of this game with several notable diferences. I don't know the name of it, nor if it was a clone or release before all of this, but the differences were this: - no spaces in the snake bodies - always same starting position from one of the corners - there was some kind of power that could be used either to rapidly slow or accelerate for a few seconds - walls were passable snake appeared from the other side of the wall, so the only way how to lose was to bump into another or yourself snake "body"

Does anyone remember this version and has any more info about this? I would love to get this version and play it but I can't find it. --188.244.50.117 (talk) 16:55, 14 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If this game is from 1995 then it is also just a clone. There's a similar game from 1994 (the last version is from 27.10.1994) called ViperAGA. I still have it on my Amiga and it's still downloadable from aminet: http://aminet.net/package/game/2play/ViperAGA12 The article says "The game is a clone of the lesser known Cervi (Worms) from 1993, differing in that the lines now have holes." but in ViperAGA the trails also featured holes and players would get points for crossing through them.

Curve Fever IS Achtung, die Kurve!!

Curve Fever is not "inspired by" or "a clone of" Achtung, Die Kurve!". In fact, if you go to achtungdiekurve.net, it says that the game has been RENAMED to Curve Fever. "Achtung, Die Kurve!" translates directly to "Pay attention to the curve!". I'm sure you can see where the new title comes from. 108.36.129.47 (talk) 02:18, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The owner of this company, Geert van den Burg, who created Curve Fever 1, 2 and 3, did not continue Achtung, die Kurve! as a franchise. Achtung, die Kurve!, the DOS game from 1995 is the subject of this page. Therefore, Achtung, die Kurve is NOT actually Curve Fever. We would hereby like to request the English page be moved back to Achtung, die Kurve. The Dutch page, which is still called Curve Fever, is actually about Curve Fever, written by the creator of Curve Fever himself. This has nothing to do with Achtung, die Kurve!. The Dutch translation of this article is therefore faulty and should be its own article with its own translations. --Kevin_HMG 11:50, January 4th, 2018 (CET)

Official history of Curve Fever

Hidden Monster Games, developers and creators of the Curve Fever games, posted a short but to-the-point history about how Curve Fever came to be, as well as how it relates to the original Achtung, die Kurve! from 1995. This should be used as a new reference point for the content of these pages, given that Achtung, die Kurve! 1995 and Achtung, die Kurve! 2010, are completely different games, made by different developers.
