Re: In game beeper music
Jet Set Gertie (which is oddly not a JSW mod)

Re: R-type question
The massively inaccurate horizontal collision detection between your ship and the pixel-scrolling background objects always did for me on level 6, as you had to get fairly close to the vertical walls.

Re: Atari 400 Mini
I have an 800XL and it's a nice machine - very similar to a C64, in a lot of ways. I use a Raspberry Pi 1 as disk drive for it. It was a shame that the Atari 8-bit software started tailing off a lot earlier than the C64 or Spectrum, as it was well capable of having decent conversions of the later ga...

Re: How to detect MCoder II games?

I picked out quite a few in another thread somewhere.
