Super puzzle, but time goes by too fast. Fortunately there is pause in the emulators.

Re: The Legacy of the White Crane (Ishido 2)

Hi mzx, I liked Ishido and this new chapter looks, sounds and plays even better. Well done and thanks for sharing :D One question: why the No ULA+ version is without AY sound? Alessandro, I'm really glad you enjoyed the game! Sorry, indeed, for some reason there was no AY sound in noula+ version, I...

Re: Trace It!

It is very refreshing. I just can't stop. It's like we've stepped back in time to 1983. Simple, funny look with a great idea. For me, one of the best of recent years.

Re: Kong vs Donkey Kong

Stuart Campbell just posted a request on WoS for a hack of Donkey Kong with better coloured sprites. They managed to do it, but unfortunately the download link seems to have gone. Does anyone have a copy of the 128k version of the hacked game? I made the TAP and TZX (with Mick Farrow's beautiful lo...
