Spectrum Computing

well executed, I've seen the screen bitmap/attribute manipulation in demo's over the years but I don't think I've seen this in a game before

I like it

there's a fresh 2024 mod with beeper sfx but the tune isn't the original one

not seen that one...would like to try it

if you have a DivMMC try R-Type GT on a real speccy ,it's a SCL file but can be converted to TRD. The 128k music and effects really do the business.

I had clicked on this thread with some trepidation, thankfully I was wrong in my assumption...

time to get the konix speedking out....

Can you explain the difference from the original? I played it briefly and I noticed that there was good music at the start. What else? I got to the first bonus stage and nothing was really happening. (Loading screen does kick arse though. ha!) Apart from the loading screen and ay music at the menu ...

added a note to the text file, amazing work thank you so much for doing this

Thanks gOOdbOy

Oh my sweet lord... With a huge thankyou to gOOdbOy, there are a couple additions to the Turbo The Tortoise 30th Anniversary zip file. A TRD file where you can choose to play the vanilla version, or modded... Not only that but a single load 128k version...seeing that is believing! http://bit.ly/3XzZ...

please specify, what is wrong download and TAP should work OK, alternative link is at https://zxart.ee/eng/software/game/arcade/shoot-em-up/highway-encounter-hgfx-edition/ Do you use a real hardware or have you got the latest version of the LnxSpectrum emulator? Meanwhile, here is a short video htt...

that would be awesome too

great idea

:o .tap file would not work on my +2 is that via a DivMMC? or similar? Tested on SpecEmu, Spectaculator, physically on 128k Toast Rack, +2, +2a, +3, 48k machines The original unmoddeed TAP doesn't either as it still uses a custom loader, it will work in emulators and on real hardware as a physical ...

that was a massive help, thank you

Woah, for a first dive into assembly that's a cracking start! Taking a look, it's definitely do-able to have the tune play back (just the once) with the new loading screen still present and then prompt for the Kempston support - it's about a 12 byte remedy Looks (and sounds) a bit like this - the c...

I wasn't sure what to do when I first saw the game. Looking again now it looks like a substantial MOD of Arkanoid, and given the response here alone it's noteworthy, so yep I just created an ID and added the files. It'll appear after the next update. Does anyone konw if the authors "Mart"...

The top left keys - 1 for left, 2 for right and 5 for fire will map to an IF2 joystick in port 2 But the odd thing is, that support for the Kempston joystick is already present in the original code but the BASIC loader skips over it 10 CLEAR 24268: BORDER 0: PAPER 0: INK 0: POKE 23624,0: CLS : LOAD...

They are planning to add Kempston and mouse support not really, there's a kempston mouse modded version of arkanoid, the plan may be to add the alterations to that but there's something a bit off about the ball placement on game start if I can stop that from happening then maybe I'll mod that versi...

just as a matter of interest, will this make it in to the archive?
