Seems a cool game. I think it's time to give it a try

Hmmm.
I've solved the picture puzzle, and now have the conical flask, but I can't think what to do next. Am I supposed to guess a number combination for the fax machine or microwave?

New Text Adventure: TrolleyMania

(Recoded from a design discovered in an old folder, dating back to about '92. Produced for my own amusement. Not much to the actual game!)

Looks great, but, i can't get the SCL file to load in Fuse. What's the best emulator to load .SCL files?

Have you got Spectaculator? That just opens .scl without having to worry about configurations.

Spectaculator or Unreal. Fuse handle with SCL too

It’s a TR-DOS image. You need to enable the Beta Disk 128 interface in Fuse’s preferences.

Yep, downloaded Spectaculator and got the game up and running.
Just like R-Tape I've finished the pic puzzle, but, no idea what to do now:
What semaphore is being used once you finish the pic?

Aaah, I pressed a key too quickly and didn't see it properly. I assumed it was a celebration graphic, rather than a clue. It must be that.

I've not had chance to try this out yet!
I'm collating stuff ready for the next update. Would you be willing to summarise the backstory for a comment that will appear with the entry (1993/2018 etc)? Or perhaps I could convert your web page article into a .txt?

Grabbing the article to pop in a .txt file would be fine. 2018 is fine for the date of release.

Manic Scroller
https://jswcentral.org/mminmods_mscroller.html
A mod of Manic Miner which you can treat as some kind of curiosity.Everything has been enlarged so the game scrolls now.

Nice little end-of-year cracker, took me about 10 minutes to finish it.

Seems that my last post won't be my last one in this thread
Super Master 2
(seems to belong to 2018 yet)
The download:

Probable related to earlier Super Master:

I've spotted it on Facebook groups. Shame that Speccy content is so scattered today all around the web. Like they couldn't all come to Spectrum Computing

Thanks to everyone helping to keep track of all the new releases. Another good year. An especially big thanks to Ralf for keeping his ear to the ground.
Should we have a best game poll?
