You're all wrong. I refer to the time-travelling Bill and Ted, of Bill & Ted's Adventure, greeting philosopher Socrates as "So Crates!"

How about Fruity Frank, then?

After almost 3 years of our previous philological argument on the correct greek names pronounciation .....
...and after the release of the excellent Mr.Do! port for the Speccy, I see no further progress on the subject of this topic...
So I am calling all Speccy coders from around the world to have a look at this:

Notice that the colours that this game uses are more or less similar to the Speccy 8+7 palette (apart from some purple, which could be replaced by dark blue). So the original graphics for a multicolour attempt are almost ready from the MSX version... The music is 100% ready and I don't know if part of the disassembled code could be used as well, with the required adjustments.
Would it be THAT difficult???
Yesterday we were celebrating the 39th anniversary of our beloved Spectrum, so this could be a nice project for the 40th, perhaps???
