What ZX81 game are you currently playing?
Re: What ZX81 game are you currently playing?
Does it need joystick support??
Re: What ZX81 game are you currently playing?
Actually I admit I was thinking about it, as it's typical arcade-game (kinda space-shooter), so it wouldn't hurt.
Well, it _would_ hurt flying enemies for sure.
Anyway I don't hide I'd be grateful, hehe.

Re: What ZX81 game are you currently playing?
Hmm, I can't make it work in EO - even configured as a 16k zx81. The game loads and shows a busy playfield but I can't start the game..
Any clues? :¬S

Re: What ZX81 game are you currently playing?
Hmm, that's trange.
I turned-on the EO with 16K config.
LOAD.
Any key.
5 key.
0 key (fire).
The game works. 1&A = up/down. 0=fire.
Seems like the newest EO still is bugged. (I use an old one especially because of such occasions).
Hm. Sorry I couldn't help more. :-\

Re: What ZX81 game are you currently playing?
The busy playfield is a demo of the game. The idea has been taken from arcade machines (there's the same). Any key should stop it and the game should go to the menu, like I wrote above.sirmorris wrote:The game loads and shows a busy playfield but I can't start the game..
maybe the emul is broken after all...? Keyboard's reading?

Re: What ZX81 game are you currently playing?
Still MinerMan. For hours.
And with NO cheating.
EarlGrey and ZX81 in the evening, after work - that's it, hehe.
Of course I'm not a good player, so it was actually surprising to me that I can play this game for many days.
And of course it had to stop obviously, at some point, heh. All levels are logic.
Except the 37. There is only some pure luck to finish it. So I will probably stop here.
The biggest problem is, that the game has supposedly... 38 levels! So I got stuck actually in the end.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.
