Not many Spectrum games like that!! It will have a feeling that I want to experience already!!Ralf wrote: ↑Tue Aug 07, 2018 11:13 am Actually it won't be icons but clickable words, like in Lucas games. But no, it's not a remake of any Lucas game
Still it should save you a lot of frustration coming from "word hunting", when you know the right thing to do but the parser sucks and doesn't understand you.

I will enter but the game will not appear until 2019. I need to finish Bean Brothers, then it will be time to start work on the Woot! magazine.
There are so many fun possibilities for the MIA category, but I think I know what I'm going to do.

The results from ZX-dev forum:
Amazing comp. The most important driver of Speccy homebrew these days. Thank-you Ivan et al!
I was one of the judges, and I broadly agree with the results. I would put Misifu & Elon Musk much higher, and Maze Death Rally X MUCH, MUCH higher (it was my top choice!). That said, there's no arguing that any of the top 5 could have won it.1-Aliens Neoplasma 13120 points
2-Redshift 13058 points
3-Old Tower 12996 points
4-Manic Pietro 12847
5-Mister Kung Fu 12660
6-Booty the remake 12210
7-Ninjakul 2 11892
8-TikiTaca 11868
9-Sophia 2 11824
10-Maze Death Rally X 11549
11-ZX Larry 11306
12-Comeme el chip 11270
13-Droid Buster 10750
14-Mini Explorer XXXI 10644
15-Elon Musk 10569
16-DeadZone 10512
17-PTM 10332

Re: ZX Dev MIA-Remakes - The new ZX Dev is already here!
Of course I am biased being one of the contestants, therefore I would have liked to find Sophia II higher in the chart. Number 8 and 7 are less than 100 points distant from it, this means it could have easily gone up one or two position. Almost a tie with two very good titles like Tiki Taca and Ninjakul.
I don't think Aliens Neoplasma was the best of the other titles. Technically impressive for sure, but gameplay is actually pretty thin in my opinion, without the same width of scope of other Sanchez productions, e.g. Survivisection and Castlevania. I would have rather seen Redshift or Mister Kung Fu at the top, and a higher placement for Comeme el Chip as well.
Anyway, the general level was very high, and Spectrum fans and users can only be glad of being part of such a vital scene.

Re: ZX Dev MIA-Remakes - The new ZX Dev is already here!
I had it around this position, but with Tiki Taca higher. It's strange how the voting categories don't always reflect how one feels—despite it getting a lower score, I generally enjoyed Sophia2 a bit more than some that ended up placing higher.Alessandro wrote: ↑Tue May 07, 2019 1:21 pm Of course I am biased being one of the contestants, therefore I would have liked to find Sophia II higher in the chart.

I loved Aliens and got it in the top 3; it was hard to not give it full marks on many of the categories. Could the graphics have possibly been better? I don't see how, but then I didn't give it 100% in that category. I thought it played really well, had an amazing atmosphere (it's creepy as hell when they attack you), and had enough restart points to keep you playing.I don't think Aliens Neoplasma was the best of the other titles.

Maze Death Rally-X was my top spot because it fulfilled the competition brief perfectly. A remake of the arcade game/original zx game could not have been much better. Some might say it should scroll more smoothly, but then you'd get colour clash. Graphics and sound could have been fancier—and I don't doubt that TomD was capable of making them so—but it would have been inappropriate for the game. I found it the most enjoyable to play too.
Amen.Anyway, the general level was very high, and Spectrum fans and users can only be glad of being part of such a vital scene.
Re: ZX Dev MIA-Remakes - The new ZX Dev is already here!

I would be happy to assist in running this with RVG and this site if that was something you was interested in?
Re: ZX Dev MIA-Remakes - The new ZX Dev is already here!
Thing is I don't want to see ZX Dev to die. That is all.
I could run something simulace this year And see what happen.
