Thanks. Some real gems out there, can't wait for Melkior, BL1-M3Y, and SMEG.

Re: An article about the coming up Spectrum Homebrew games
I was about to ask for a link to the English version (though I did learn Spanish at school for a few years, that knowledge has long gone), only to realise I was only looking at the first paragraph for each title.
Re: An article about the coming up Spectrum Homebrew games
It is mind boggling how much activity there is for this platform. Good to see Go Go Bunnygun in the list. Hope it comes out soon.
Re: An article about the coming up Spectrum Homebrew games
These all look great, and pretty diverse too.
Atomix ZX, Smeg and Coleco (a 'thrusty' game?) especially catch my eye.
Melkhior's Mansion is looking to be one of those games that, if released BITD would have landed the authors either inside a mansion or a wicker man! Speaking of which, glad to see that Savage Princess is probably going to happen. We're way overdue a Kevin McGrorty game.
BTW is there a main link to this MK1 competition? Not heard of it before.
Now is the perfect time to start that duolingo course! Usually though, this is all you need (and is about my limit!)

I clicked 'translate' and it was part of the fun guessing which one was Ivan's and which Google's.DouglasReynholm wrote: ↑Sun May 03, 2020 6:06 pm I was about to ask for a link to the English version (though I did learn Spanish at school for a few years, that knowledge has long gone), only to realise I was only looking at the first paragraph for each title.

Ivan, great article! You don't update your blog very often, but the content in those cases is terrific. Hats off to you
Re: An article about the coming up Spectrum Homebrew games
Actually now you mention Dinamic, you'd think that many brits of our vintage would know "TU MISION HA FRACASADO HAS PERDIDO TUS EFECTIVOS" off by heart!
(sorry Ivan - offtopic)

I couldn't find an English version, sorry.
In short, the deadline is 30/09/2020, the point of the compo is to use the recently released MK1 and the email to send the game files is [email protected]. There is additional details in the page, with a bit of mojonesque humor on it as well, I dare you to google-translate all of it and see if you can fully understand it all.
There is no shortage of Spanish speakers in this forum if you need help
Re: An article about the coming up Spectrum Homebrew games
Hehe. Google is better than you think. In some cases I preferred your phrasing, other Google's. All was fine.
Already starting to think about WootYes, impressive stuff over there, it is time to code, Dave!!!
Re: An article about the coming up Spectrum Homebrew games
It's not been forgotten. Unfortunately I'm one of those people who still has a job to go to at the moment!
It's in the middle of a bit of re-organisation to work out what data can be compressed to save memory. I've probably designed more sprites than I actually need instead of getting on with the coding, since I wrote a sprite sketcher for my Nintendo DS!
