Re: Add loading screen to .tap file

Hi again oblo , Personally, I use Basin's Tape Creator utility -it's simple and gets the work done. But if you need more features to work with tape blocks, ZX Blockeditor is a good option. Maybe a step by step of how you got the contents of the screen grab you attached please? D Ok, I'm assuming yo...

Re: Arcade Game Designer

Hi. I've downloaded the Multi-Platform Arcade Game Designer 0.7.2 and start to read documentation before try anything. Anyway, do AGD support no gravity/loose inertia (I don't know how to put it), something like an astronaut in space or a top-down car like Ironman Offroad, or something like that, we...

O-EYES

Hi all I've just finished my last game: O-EYES, a ZX Spectrum port of the arcade game EYES. Don't know why but I like it to play some quick rounds, so I decided to make this version. Oh, and as you can see, I've used the ol' and cheap trick to print in the inlay an arcade screenshot, instead of an a...

Re: Couple of ideas for next project

With regards to the FF bok, would you be doing this as a text adventure or similar to the existing FF games for mobile devices which have the dice role option and are a pure version of the books?
