Thanks Goblinish!

So as I understand we should save it in database as a new game "Rogue 2", not a different version of "Rogue". But maybe show in comment relationship between these two games.

rogue with 8x8 tiles is beta-version or my attempt to create game.

rogue2 is improved version with fixed bugs and new music and graphics.

May I wrong with naming game?

Nice one, looks great but it could do with some instructions.

Ok I'll give both the same ZXDB ID for a game called "Rogue". Both will be available under the same page - with 8x8 as a dev version and "Rogue2" as the final, proper version. Let me know if you disagree.

We've just had a ZXDB/SC update so these changes will not appear until next time.

Ta Pav, but the is already available as part of the same ID as Souls.

I think Raiders of Lost Ark was actually released on December, 31

That's true mate, I decided to give the news few minutes before the end of 2017! Maybe it could be considered the very first release for 2018, anyway (it's a matter of minutes).

I take this opportunity to report some upcoming releases:

- EXPLORER - compiled Boriel's Basic, first release 2015, upcoming 2018 physical release by Bumfun Gaming;

- EXPLORER 2 - AGD, September 2018 physical release by Monument Microgames;

- RAYS' REPRISAL - AGD, September 2018 physical release by Monument Microgames.

Does demos count as new software?

Wow that's quite a party.

Yes certainly*, generally anything more than a tune or a screen. So the LowEnd Intros, Demos, Procedural graphics, Wild etc will be added.

*you can browse demos on SC by going to the homepage, select "Scene: Demo" for Genre and click 'Search', it brings up all demos currently in ZXDB.

Okay, the snare drum in this one is pretty badass.

Aye that caught my ear too, but PUSHAF really leapt out at me.

That AER has a touch of the Aphex Twin about him (that's a compliment ).

Totally. Reminds me of Ben Daglish's percussion?

What is Mozaication all about?

Is it ULAplus or some Timex mode? How does one take a representative screenshot?

I'm playing with the timing modes on EmuZWin but still I can't see anything similar to the video. I see the palette rotation, but a lot of flickering.

I think it’s (a) Pentagon-specific timing-wise and (b) uses that nasty 50-at-25-fps mode that works only on some LCD TVs. Never was a big fan of that trick.

Pentagon only.

Pentagon only.

Cheers. Can you (or anyone) provide a representative screenshot?

[g0blinish]

there are no screenshot : typical issue with timings

Thanks! How did you find it?
The author name - "Paweі Sіawiсski" seems Polish to me but could be Russian as well, yet some letters are probably wrong here, could you check it?

[g0blinish]

yes, he is a Polish.

I parsed levels.dat to obtain 30 levels, and I write engine - it was very easy toimplement rules of game.
