Spectrum Computing

Seems that Juan Carlos Montalban has rectified and republished his EXODRON game with another loading screen. However, Mojon Twins' death screen hasn't been modified...

Minimum effort law applied.

I suppose Monty is actually modifying game file and tape inlay, after what happened with game's loading screen.

Just for knowledge. In their last update of Kickstarter blog, Nicola & Anthony Caulfield announces the film is already available in digital, plus extras, for backers only. I've just viewed a part of it and looks quite impressive (of course, I backed their kickstarter campaign)

Juan J. Martinez 'reidrac' says that Monty's remade loading screen from his The Return Of Traxtor videogame was used without his permission.

So it goes...

Okay. Thanks

I've already known of a programmer who isn't very happy having realised AY/mp3 files ripped from his game being available for download from Spectrum Computing and other site like ZX-Art, without his permission . Having released his game about 1 year ago, he doesn't understand the meaning of this. I ...

I can help with Microhobby type-ins.

I'm done with Micro 7's ones. Just five entries.

Rest in peace. He's been one of my favourite artists in the world of ZX Spectrum.

Thank you.

Maybe it was mentioned long time ago, but I don't know how to reach to that thread or post. There are some fields in some entries I've been watching from time to time and I'd like to know, for my own curiousity, if they can be filled by any registered user via ZXDB preservation tools, or that's just...

Got it and a very nice mini-conversion of Hoppin' Mad. With 10 lines length IvanBasic has done a great work.

Already submitted to ZXDB with basic information. No files added, yet, unless it's free for download (or paying something to his author).

Task finished! I'll take myself some rest of several days.

Next thing, check other magazines with ZX BASIC listings in short from Germany and Italy: Computer Kontakt, Computronic, CPU, Electronic Games (Italy), Happy Computer, HC Mein Heim-Computer, Home Computer (Italy), LIST and finally Paper Soft.

I'm almost finishing and completing my uploads of BASIC type-ins that are left from this Spanish magazine. Only issues from 38 and 40 have still something interesting, while last issue 41 is full of cheat loaders for several classic videogames, most of them specified for Spanish releases. I don't be...

Duplicate entries for Ventamatic educational software called 'Areas'. This and this are almost equal to each other.

I think we can start adding the titles, I was taking a look at the first issue, and all the programs I checked seem original, and some of them have the author name in the code.

Good!

In the 1st of March, El Trastero Del Spectrum published a new update of their archive, adding complete scans in PDF of Spanish pressings of book series published by Dorling Kindersley Ltd. in the 80s: 'Step-By-Step Programing ZX Spectrum' and 'Step-By-Step Programing ZX Spectrum Plus'. - Programació...

After a long time, I will be uploading to ZXDB most of type-ins published in "ZX" magazine (not everything, just better ones of every issue, except existing ones in the archive) in the following days. However, I will have a break for about fifteen days, counting from beginning of March, in...

Good! Thanks!

So, this is The Guild re-release, right? Not archived at SC yet, so I don't want to mistake before submitting both TZX to the archive.

OK.

Not preserved at Spectrum Computing since then, yet. Do you wish I upload their files any day now, André?

Is it inspired in popular Cartoon Network TV animated show? Looks fine.

Coming from this thread , about one of latest Mojon Twins releases for the Speccy: Phantomas Tales #4 - Severin' Sewers (2024 Edition) When a new version of a previously released videogame has been published, does it need to be uploaded with the rest of items in its same SC entry or would it be done...

New version runs on 48K, by first. Some graphics and colour display have been modified or improved. If in doubt, ask creators at their itch.co site for more info.
