My slot machine game from 1982

Post by angus »

There's one other game doing the rounds that I uploaded to a ZX81 site back in 2000. I was quite amazed to google it and find its on a lot of sites now!
That game is called 'Whale Attack' and is a very simple game that survived as a hand written listing.

More recently I have retrieved some of my cassettes from my parents' loft...and here is one of the fruits. Literally as it is a basic fruit machine (slot machine) game that I wrote way back in 1982. Be kind to me, I was 9 years old!

For your enjoyment, I present Lucky 7's by Whitethorn Software (the name I attached to my programs). My idea at the time was to produce a suite of 4 or 5 arcade type games, there was a pinball type game which I did finish but it won't load from the tape. There was a space invaders game that I also completed but that was as far as I got.

This is a Z81 snapshot from the eighty one emulator.

I've been playing with eighty one and vbzx81 as well as the real ZX81 lately.
