I will have to do this for you as support for Z88 is experimental but it does work as I have already compiled and tested games for this target.

You need to correctly set-up your emulator or real computer.
The standard version of the games use the Kempson joystick. I can make keyboard versions as well.

I have also made keyboard versions. If you want I can build versions that use IJKL and the space bar.

Re: [BASIC] How to read from the keyboard buffer?

Maybe I could do something like:
let c=peek(23560): if c<>13 then print c: POKE 23560,13

Re: [BASIC] How to read from the keyboard buffer?

So if a key is pressed I need to detect it and not miss it but I need to detect it just once. In principle INKEY seems to do that but it does no...
