Hi yerymyey :)

You can find it here (in the attachment)
Cosmic is, in my opinion, a very good game. It was publushed by the Brazilian Magazine Micro Sistemas (a very very good publication)
I do discover the Micro Sistemas mags and some really good softwares form Brasil, the last year and I must say that the Quality is very High.

Many thanx!
It's very impressive (of course idiotically difficult for me, but it's cool to take on some ZX party :) ).

Hm, maybe now the attach would work?

PS: The game seems to be much faster than on the video. It might be related with PAL/NTSC machines.

Yes, it might be annoying.
Maybe I'm wrong but they say NTSC machines are slower. So - maybe somebody wrote the prog to be faster. And when we load it back into the PAL computers: it results with too high speed. maybe somebody could hack the game?

When playing in 50 Hz mode ("PAL"), it is too fast. But 2 of my Zeddies have Andy's ULA2 installed. So
POKE 101,5
switches them to 60 Hz mode ("NTSC") and then the game is slower and playable :-)
