Space Panic videogame, taken from Lo Varese ZX Spectrum
A snapshot file with the name 'Panic.sna' was found inside Lo ZX Spectrum In Italia website. In fact, I haven't seen any reference to this platform arcade at SC archive by their screenshots (see below), unless its similarity with Mikro-Gen's videogame in some elements of in-game screen, like score a...

uMIA: Kong, by Tim Boone
I've found a possible uMIA from a group of archives located in this section of an old ZX Spectrum games site, unactive since many years ago: Lo Varese ZX Spectrum In Italian and called 'Crazy Kong', this game may belong to Tim Boone as his name appears at the first opening screen of the game, once l...

Re: Magazines
In the meantime, I'm submitting to ZXDB many HCW type-in programs files already existing (not here at SC, I'm afraid), thanks to the effort of Jim Grimwood and his collaborators in the past, if any. Many of these listings were copied long time ago for The Type Fantastic site of Jim's. No clue why th...
Re: Magazines
Hi, I've noticed that all issues of Home Computing Weekly magazine, scanned as PDF at Internet Archive , have a very poor resolution. So, I'm using existing JPEG files from same site (Generic Raw Book ZIP) to convert every issue in this type of image into new PDFs with a better quality. I usually us...

Re: ZXSR bugs
Sure each one of them appeared on covertapes. "Inglese I" in issue #9 - 1985/Oct and the third part of this English course in Issue #11 - 1985/Dec of the magazine.

Re: "Frogger" - uMIA type-in from Radio Elettronica & Computer magazine

uMIA type-in from Personal Computer World: Qix (Feb. 1985)
I've already typed and transfered into a TZX file an uMIA game called "Qix" from PCW magazine, developed by Y. Yu (or so it seems). After a long time trying to make it perfectly checked of free errors, there must be something bad inside the program. So to start, once I press RUN and ENTER,...

Much appreciated. ;) For instance, as I could watch on May 1984 issue (from SC archive), there's a list of back issues that could be useful for Mort, PeterJ and more people to try their search in any form, or just having this info for something else.

I'm actually checking Electronic Games (Italian edition) magazine from Magazines section and I've discovered in its 6th issue a full review of a complete unknown football manager, or so it seems, from page 22 to 24 in the PDF ( at Internet Archive ) with a tape inlay image on it. "Caccia al 13&...

Re: Lots of German Spectrum games/programs preserved, all the German users, HELP identifying and classifying them
Kunibert game looks like the one already available at SC (from Homecomputer magazine) with almost same UDG graphics, but the one at El Trastero is more simple. Maybe a first version?

Re: Invaders
I've been looking for any "Invaders" type-in at Grimwood's The Type Fantastic site but no one corresponds with this 1987 release. Unless there are English texts on several PRINT commands after checking main listing, it could have been published in any non-UK magazine.
