Great to hear @Gears of Games,

We could do with explaining the red links (or removing the hyperlink).

Hi @Gears of Games,

If the link is red then it's not currently a valid link. Are you clicking on one of those, or the page number? Thanks

I'm locking this thread as the user has asked for their account to be deleted.

It seems unusual to ask for assistance, get help and then delete your account.

Thanks for sharing these @PeteProdge

Excellent article here from the BBC

@Timmy,

Derek's C guide is very good. I'm not sure we need another one. I've read some of your previous guides though, they are great!

@_dw,

I think you have decided C isn't for you. It's great there are so many languages to keep everyone happy.

@_dw,

Many of your z88dk observations are answered in Derek's comprehensive guide. Z88dk was a mystery until I worked through it. The website documentation isn't great

It's a Spectrum Next Emulator. Search the forum for Cspect.

#CSpect is now being hosted on itch.io

Issue 11 of 8 Bit Magazine. Brand new. Just cover postage which is a second class large letter stamp (£1.55 PayPal F&F).

Some of the Level 9 adventures such as Gnome Ranger and Ingrid's Back only contain illustrations on the +3 Disk versions.

My first Kickstarter Next was delivered by Yodel and it was fine. Just thank your lucky stars it's not Hermes!

If anyone missed out on the Kickstarter and has very deep pockets, there are two available for an eye watering £750 each.

Apologies @briefer

We missed this one. I will add it for inclusion in the next update.

Are you OK with us hosting the game file?

would be even better if you define a criteria why some games have been selected, and some don't. There will be 4 preliminary polls, one per week, over the next 4 weeks. Eligibility depends on the game being registered in ZXDB, with a publication date in 2023. The 4 polls are loosely, but not exactl...

The latest ZXDB update has been applied. There is a script running currently which updates the magazines. This may slow down the site for the next hour.

Mine was habit @Mpk,

Just changed my votes from 1 to 3, and will pick the other two later this afternoon.

Thanks to PeteProdge for mentioning this. The full list of reports is here: https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/forums/app.php/scores Just a reminder for new users, every software page has a voting section. You need to logged into the forum to vote, and your username is stored in the database against ea...

Good suggestion @akeley,

I will add.
