Does anyone have the tape file for this? Maybe [mention]Daren[/mention]? I see that god of gaming, Albert Valls, submitted the RZX, is he around?

I've emailed Albert asking if he knows if the tape file is available.

Not until the next update. It somehow has been missed all this time.

Here's a snapshot made from the RZX until then. It's a nice little Pacman clone.

I see there are a few Spanish Pacman games called "Comecocos". How does that translate? It looks like "Eat coconuts".

Interesting. So is that what all Pacman games are to Spanish and Portuguese people? Not gobbling pills but coconuts?

I suppose is the usual thing in which a guy translates it that way and after that everyone says 'coconuts eater'.

That's curious, I've never thought about if they were pills or coconuts, just assumed its name since the first time I've heard (and seen) of it, I don't remember when.

The only thing I perfectly remember of it was the first time I saw that screen and the sounds and lights... :shock:
