MAME Info:
0.34b8 [Brad Oliver]
WIP:
- 0.138u2: Stefan Lindberg and Dumping Union added PCB locations to Liquid Kids.
- 0.108u4: Robzia fixed flipscreen mode for Liquid Kids and other games using the same Taito graphics chips.
- 0.100u4: Bryan McPhail fixed flipscreen in TC0100, which improves Liquid Kids.
- 0.98u1: Bryan McPhail fixed one of the TC360 sprite blending modes (used in Pulirula round 2 and Liquid Kids attract mode).
- 0.89u1: Bryan McPhail added TC0360PRI blending modes to the games with rotation layers. This includes Pulirula & Liquid Kids. One of the blending modes is new to these games (not used in Gun Frontier) and I have no way to verify it's actually correct - someone with a working board will need to verify (Liquid Kids: Fish going in water in attract mode, Pulirula: Crystals on level 2).
- 0.56: Fixed rom names.
- 0.37b5: Added 'Difficulty' and 'Unused' dipswitches.
- 0.36RC2: Added 'Cabinet' dipswitch.
- 0.35RC2: Added clone Liquid Kids (US). Yasuhiro Ogawa added clone Mizubaku Daibouken (Japan). Changed parent description to 'Liquid Kids (World)'.
- 0.35b3: Eugenio De Renzi added high score saving to Liquid Kids.
- 0.34b8: Brad Oliver added Liquid Kids (Taito 1990).
