I’ve put 10 books on eBay - https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/bob-tmh/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from= - as part of having a clear out. They’re mostly Spectrum related.

I don’t remember doing anything particularly different with OLG compared to any other of my ZX81 gamespatters wrote: ↑Fri Apr 02, 2021 8:33 pm Most of the games I've tried have worked, but not One Little Ghost for some reason. I wonder why it's not compatible with the turbo loader.

I’m sure there’s a way to embed tweets into a thread, but until I work it out here’s a video of the conversion...

Re: Was there ever a good Centipede for the ZX81?
Very true - it’s ruined a few good cups of tea when I’ve been concentrating on coding it instead of pouring the kettle

Re: Was there ever a good Centipede for the ZX81?
I did start work on a version, but Melkhior’s Mansion, and trying to make it a perfect clone, got in the way. I may well resurrect it in the future though.
