It's Friday! Yippeeeeee! Here is a mish-mash of stuff from various loading screens, all copied/pasted directly from the archive. Can you identify each game?

I haven't played it much, but it's got all the hallmarks of a decent Shaw game. That loading screen really stuck in my head.

I think the F is from Fast Food. It matches a lot of the large-letter graphics in the game.
Spectribution: Dr. Jim's Sinclair computing pages.
Features my own programs, modified type-ins, RZXs, character sets & UDGs, and QL type-ins... so far!
