Sadly I do most of my gaming on Retropie, and absolutely none of your games work on the Retropie ZX81 emulator (a port of EightyOne)

On EightyOne you need to activeate WRX-hires, so that could be the problem.JohnsBargs wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 3:42 amSadly I do most of my gaming on Retropie, and absolutely none of your games work on the Retropie ZX81 emulator (a port of EightyOne)

I have it activated. But I gather the problem is that there's no way to set lr-81 to only 1K memory.dr beep wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 8:55 amOn EightyOne you need to activeate WRX-hires, so that could be the problem.JohnsBargs wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 3:42 amSadly I do most of my gaming on Retropie, and absolutely none of your games work on the Retropie ZX81 emulator (a port of EightyOne)

the games also run on 16K. The RAM-pack then needs to be capable of hires. On an emulator that can't be the problem.JohnsBargs wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 1:26 pmI have it activated.

Very cool 1K games. I was amazed by Qbert in 1K, awesome gameplay and fantastic port!dr beep wrote: ↑Sat Dec 12, 2020 10:46 am Hello to you all....
I notice that my games are downloaded A LOT, all for free, b ut I asked for a nice review of the games which, besides the hilaric videos of Rod Bell seems to stay away.
Since Rod did not review all the games I am starting this simple review topic.
You pick a game from the 60 1K games (even now 74 are done, we stay at this link https://www.mediafire.com/file/iyor7x1b ... 0.zip/file)
You play a game and write a small review here in your own comment.
After a review the remaining games are free to pick.
You may write another review when 2 other persons placed a review of a game.
In the end all the games have a small review, extending the views on the games.
Have playfun during these hollidays,
Johan "Dr Beep" Koelman
I also liked the Defender type game, would love to see you create a 16K version of Defender and can't wait to see the new Pacman game you are working on!
I downloaded your development kit and tutorial for 1K hi-res and started working with the assembly code in the demo, I need to learn Z80 assembly in addition to the hardware. I know 6809 and 6502 so it is much fun to learn Z80 architecture on minimalist Sinclair hardware!

I really like the individuality in the different ports of the classics that programmers have brought to the home micros over the years and interesting new takes on them.
I really like the psuedo hi-res port too where the characters break apart a bit when the desired bit patterns are not present and an approximation is substituted, creates a pleasing Walt Disney hand drawn quality on the animation I've never seen on other home computers.
