Is there supposed to be audio?

A challenging side-scrolling shooter in the ZX81. Marvellous!

Nice video, good work.

Nice game! Is it written in assembly or basic?

Uau beatifull game.

Game is highly recommended. Definitely worth the price! :) 👍👍

Let this video be a lesson to everyone - don't smoke weed before filming a video for public consumption. Thus endeth the lesson.

Those enemy bullets sure put a lot of pressure to get the aim right ... or else!

Wow, this brings back some memories. Remember using CP/M extensively back in the 1980s especially on the Amstrad PCW. For the time it was a good OS. Might be worth taking a look at Locomotive BASIC that came with the PCW (and possibly the Spectrum +3).

MBASIC80 (or 85) - by Microsoft, is the most likely version you need, that was the most commonly distributed and used for games BITD. And, yes, between KS1 and KS2 the legal status of the CP/M distro files were clarified, which meant we got permissions to include them direct on the SD card, anyone with KS1 who upgrades to the KS2 images will also get the files - but the result is the same as if you followed MikeC's video you referenced, just a lot less manual work for the pre-setup KS2 images. -Dx

There was a game called "Merchant of Venus" by Crystal software which I rarely see mentioned but I was fascinated by. I think Crystal had gotten the idea from "Elite" on the BBC micro and tried a similar idea set on a single planet. The player would have to pilot his "lander" over the landscape to various trading posts and mining instalations to conduct business. This was easier said than done as it was VERY hard to land at destination without A crashing or B landing so hard that your ship was effectively wrecked. The graphics weren't hi res but they were lovingly crafted and if it wasn't for the difficulty curve in piloting the ship, it would be a pretty compelling game...

Bbc basic? Spectra? Ulax? Vdac2?

Better to try MBASIC.

For a ZX81, that's impressive.

I think less than 1% of the Amiga games were barely playable... I wonder if anyone tried those games before publishing it.

cool stuff, but you sound like you're a bit sad :( i suppose im just used to people being hyper energetic in these youtube videos. anyway good games all around. personally i dont have a single retro system (even though i respect them a lot) so there's just me and my trusty modern gaming pc. i enjoy a lot of VR games to be honest. but excluding those, i would love to get back into apex legends. incredibly fun game, if you like player vs player combat.

wow when you were talking abt the next i thought it was some retro system, rather than something released in 2017! looks awesome ill check it out a little

Very cool!!

good work.

My grandpa and I would have freaked, if we had seen this in the early ninety's, in the US.

A very nice vid showcasing many of the top games but as someone else has pointed out, please review SABOTAGE and also Kevin Tom's FOOTBALL MANAGER next time around. I realise these might not be from your actual recollection(s) but they are both very very worthwhile and playable titles for the most wonderful 1980s Sinclair monochrome creation.. ever! :-)

i always liked "Maze Death Race" and "Tai" very much.

I'm afraid the audio is terrible, I can barely understand you listening on Smartphone. But anyways, congrats for the content :)

instead of compressing individual bytes, mutate the abstraction to count associated information. ua-cam.com/video/eJIp_mgVLwE/v-deo.html A sliding zipper/unzipper reads in linear form, so the joint probability is the frequency of a byte to the next.

Nice video. Do you have links to the resources used?

Cool

That cloud triangle level is evil!

Nice - as Boriel Basic has been designed for classic ZX Spectrums it has no inbuilt ability to target the next apart from the --zx-arch switch which enables some faster multiplications. There is a suite of tools that use Boriel called NextBuiild which enables you to control the Next's HW with keywords and produce NEX files.

Load some of my lowres games and see why the emulator needs an update. Loderunner, 8bitwars, K-man, Dropzone, Lunapark81, snake, Hidden picture etc...

Cool. I'm working on a little project with Boriel and NextBuild and I'm just reaching the point where I could do with some debugging, I haven't delved into the CSpect 'break' stuff yet but this has given me a taste. Thank you! Keep up the great work, these are really interesting videos!

Wow, never saw that 3D defender before. Flight Simulator brings back memories, it made me want to be a pilot!

Nice. But why no sound?

Thanks for posting!

Hey..Thanks for showing our game (TX-1696). This is only the demo, the full version is coming this year 2024.

TOP ! Thank u !👏👏👏👏

Bearing in mind it was a ZX81 with a plug in wobbly RAM Pack (caused more crashes than i can rememeber), and the year this was created, (It was 3D lets not forget!!!) 3D Monster Maze is IMO the very definition of a classic game. I used to sh1t myself back in the day as the T-rex got closer... When games where games..

Cashing on sinclair. 😅😅😅

Hi! Some how-to about? Were I can find the emulator and the game?

ohhh this looks cool

Nice video. What is the model of that joystick? Where can i buy it?

Games for spectrum next should be transormed for modern design solutions

Good looking games. No colour clash. Ah color clash. Brings back memories .

he also came to me, I rejoiced like a little child

Argh! You opened up the scissors and them used the backside of the blade to slice the tape. That's like taking a tomato form the fridge and using the back side of the knife to slice it for your sandwich!

They are lovely. I remember when mine first arrived. I hope they do another kickstarter as I could do with another.

that restyled zx81 is the king of x81s.

Thanks for uploading the ZX Spectrum Next version of this game. I have seen and played the ZX Spectrum 128k version and that is amazing also. This version looks good with the colourful sprites. I am surprise this video hasn't got a few more views and comments. Great content.
