ZX Spectrum game mash-ups that don't currently exist.

Post by PeteProdge »

Not sure if this belongs here in Games/Software or fits in with Design/Ideas, but anyway, another daft brainfart I had this morning.

Purely fictional (at this stage anyway, some of these could be amazing, but to be honest, most would be laughably poor), and just a bit of fun, here are some game names I've created from bringing together a couple of familiar games.

Rebelstarquake
Ant Atic Attack
The Worm's Three Weeks In Paradise
Fireflylord
Death Chase HQ
