Cheers. I have an old twitter account that never came to much. I'm hoping people with an 'in' can chip in rather than me doing it.

EDIT - unnecessary link

Oh hang on, I'll drop him a message with a link to this thread.

Edit: Done!

Oh, and I forget how we define machine type—as the very minimum requirement or as a subset of features—but Yankee now uses the AY chip for sound effects. So, perhaps, it should say “ZX-Spectrum 48K/128K” now and/or “Features: AY Sound”?

Thanks for the Twitter likes and retweets. I've never been so popular!

Wow

Was that an exaggeration ?

I'm sorry but we have a policy against doctored images.

However I took a new screenshot myself, please take a look. I hope you approve it!

Correct. Both these changes you be in the next ZXDB update. Thanks for reporting them!

I believe a screenshot taken closer to the middle of the gameplay is more representative of the game itself, than one taken just a few seconds in on the easy setting.

Please consider replacing it with this one (a frame from another RZX recording).

Thank you [mention]pavero[/mention]. I hope you were not badly injured?

R-Tape · Post by **R-Tape** » Thu Apr 30, 2020 9:11 pm

These inlays are brilliant. Some of them are amazing art, and others, like Droid Buster, capture the 1980's feel perfectly too.

I'm kind of glad to not be collecting so much anymore, as I don't have space!

(Erm, Los 4 Churros, Flame Princess Adventure Time...WTF

)

I'm worried. Pav's a man of understatement. I suspect his hand is the only thing he can move...

There were some days (one or two) when we could consider this statement very close to the truth.

I can picture the scene in hospital...

(Friend/family member visits)

"Well, make sure you let me know if there's anything we can do or get for you while you're recovering..."

"Hmmm... Well, since you mention it....."

Here's a better in-game screen:
https://mega.nz/file/wKB2DIhQ#1tXfv1liZ ... waeo2S1dEM
I've kept the file naming system the same, so this will be 0035787-run-2.scr - and shows that it's a "colour lines" game.
