This was a joke thread by @PeteProdge. It's a picture of Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago home when the confidential papers were found

Gaz Richards from Monument Microgames!

Great fun today!

If you are local then come and say hello!

Another review. This time from TJ. Thanks for the mention!

Good spot @Stefan. I'm very keen on us only storing 'virgin' type-ins (other than where there are errors in the listing) so I will make some changes to the entry..

Between The Stars is a ZX81 program, but the screens show flashing green.

I just noticed that the YouTube video in the entry for The Bard's Tale is apparently from a 2022 version. If you go to the YouTube page it says: This is an updated 2022 version made by Monsters Productions and Tiboh, and it has these changes: - Intro converted from C64 by Tiboh. - The game is conver...

Thanks @Pobulous,

So the PMGs (I think that's the phrase Atari use) are colour independent of the normal mode restrictions?

I'm with you there Pobulous . I can understand the appeal of the C64 Maxi, and Amiga Maxi (If it appears), but not the mini ones. As a slight aside, from a BASIC programming perspective I've never had a huge amount of love for the Atari 8bit range. To get anymore than 5 colours on screen at one time...

Thanks. User and threads being deleted.

This made me chuckle.. https://www.mvtcomputers.com/-_-/res/56a3e487-1a93-4c13-bcdb-ffad7d2e9dc1/images/files/56a3e487-1a93-4c13-bcdb-ffad7d2e9dc1/ee19ab3a-02d7-4b0c-89f6-936821c42044/768-641/b3de2e7472e8e4acfa2a427e6c1809ff5fa60b10 https://www.mvtcomputers.com/ New hand made steel cases based on th...

Done!

Very nice work gabriele amore and Lee Bee , You really do make the very most out of the Spectrum's colour pallette gabriele amore . Easy to get into, attractive, fun to play and not to hard for the occasional game player (at least on the early levels!). Lee Bee , I do love the rendition of 'Hungry L...

Hi DoctorRad , Are you also Dr_Rad ? If so, we need to merge accounts. You can't upload images (we don't have the storage space). Most users use sites like imgbb. Then you can include images in posts. PM me if you need any help. https://i.ibb.co/Y8bfBY9/image.jpg https://i.ibb.co/G93VcM1/2024-03-23-...

In the documentation he thanks the author of Classic99 (and others) for their contributions and support, so I'm guessing everything is tickety-boo.

I used the itch.io link @akeley.

I may well be wrong, but I don't think there is a PC version? It runs via the Classic99 emulator.

Scroll down. There are screen-grabs from each version:

If you fancy a bit of TI-99 adventuring action, then checkout this rather nice looking RPG: http://quixotic.adamantyr.com/roa.htm https://youtu.be/z_4IN5MscXg https://adamantyr.itch.io/realms-of-antiquity-the-shattered-crown https://img.itch.zone/aW1hZ2UvOTMzMzY4LzUyODc0ODEucG5n/original/Bvbf95.png ...

@arkannoyed,

Please could you share via Dropbox and PM @pavero with the link?

Thanks for finding them again.

Or update the latter entry to multi-language. I assume the Next version would need it's own entry anyway? Regarding the Spectrum version, I suppose it depends if these changes justify a new entry. I've no strong feelings either way. An attempt has been made to improve the literature, correct bugs, ...

Welcome adventurer! «The Elves of Maroland» is the English translation, from the original Spanish, of my first conversational adventure. Furthermore, this is the port / remake made with DAAD between 2022 and 2024 of the original adventure, made with the legendary PAWS in 1993. An attempt has been m...
