Nope.
Here's some more - I've (badly) removed the game name from top-left.

Nope.
It's from the screen$, not in-game.

Re: The best playable demo of a full price game on a YS/Crash/SU covertape: vote
In terms of how often I loaded them up for a play, I'd say: 1. Skate Crazy 2. Ikari Warriors 3. Xenon However, the most useful thing a playable demo can do for me is highlight games that maybe get decent reviews, but that you personally don't get on with. On that scale, Stormlord, Turrican, and TMHT...

Re: Atari 400 Mini
There's 4 player "sprites" and 4 missile "sprites"
The 4 missile sprites can combine to be a 5th player.
Each player is one colour, or 3 colours if 2 players are combined, and these are different colours to the rest of the graphics.
Multiplexing is possible.

Re: Atari 400 Mini
4 colours is usual for most games, but you can change the colours every line without tying up the CPU. On top of that, you have sprites, which can add extra colours. You also have over 100 colours to choose from, so the 4-colour mode is more flexible than on the Amstrad. It can look and sound fantas...

Re: Atari 400 Mini
I don't get the mini computers with non-working keyboards - this one is pretty ugly, too. C64 breadbin was just about fair enough, although with working small keys it would have been much better. Might as well use one of the hacked mini consoles - the Playstation Classic was great value when it was ...

Re: A 16K/48K/128K Spectrum game?
Has there even been a game that was different on 16K and 48K? In the early 48K era that would make some sense.
I wouldn't imagine any commercial games would support 16K in the 128K era, although it would be an interesting game design and coding exercise.

Re: Atari Driving Controller Games
The Driving Controller is digital, rather than analogue like the paddles, so can work on any system, as long as the game is coded for it. It uses the standard UDLR inputs to encode the current angle. By reading the joystick port and comparing to the previous reading you can ascertain which way the w...
