Tape Recovery Simulator 96K

Post by claudiu_cwg »

hi Everyone!

Tape Recovery Simulator 96K (TRS96K for friends) is a game about recovering data off of reluctant and grumpy old tapes.

Image

Loading data from tapes is a lost art. You need fine adjustment to compensate less-than-ideal-sound (to say the least). And there's always the dreaded Tape Loading Error looming around the next block.

Image

You'll definitely need some extra buttons to do a good job. By default, data doesn't want to be retrieved. You need a lot of tweaking to pull it out from the decaying state it likes to linger in.

You'll also get emails:

Thank you +3code!

It started off with myself trying to load a game from a real old tape and I realized sometimes loading a game was is just as fun as the game itself. Especially when it puts off a fight and you earned the right to play it.

Emulators make things too easy sometimes.
