Searching games...

Hi,
I'm looking for a long time these games, but without results.

I know there are playable versions for browsers, but I could never find anything for emulator or for real ZX81.
Can you help me?
Thanks.

I know there are playable versions for browsers, but I could never find anything for emulator or for real ZX81.

Maybe there aren't any, as in: they don't exist? Quoting from:

www.zx-gaming.co.uk/index.aspx

The games are written in Typescript, a superset of Javascript and use a library which includes methods for the main ZX81 BASIC commands : PRINT, SCROLL, CLS together with a sprite framework for quicker game creation.

The library is available here on GitHub.

Which I read as: they're not games you can run on real ZX81, but written in another language that plays in a browser with ZX81 look & feel.

As for this "bomber" game: if you haven't already, you might want to try Sinclair-distributed "Bomber" (on the B side of "Space Raiders"). Download or play here.

"Dodge" reminded me (a little ) of this booorrring game called "Space Travel" ("Ruimtereis" in Dutch). Found as "spacetra.p" or "spacetra2.p" here.

There's also a Windows exe version of zx caverns and a YouTube video.

Thanks for the answers...

I know the website, and I'm pretty sure that the games in question are of the '80s. Probably were compilations of games, for example FUNGALOIDS was in CASSETTE 4, published by M. Orwin.

Also ZX-Caverns should be in a compilation, but I have no enough information about it. While BOMBER should be of the B&B Software. I have no information about DODGE, maybe it's a recent game...

Yes, I know.
I will continue my search...

Hi,

The middle one, bomber, looks like a 1K type-in that was in Your Computer.

It was called B-52 Bomber in the September 1982 issue:

Hope it helps.

My friend is looking for a game with a submarine in hires. Any tips?

Hmm - it rings a bell - I am sure I played it, but cannot remember the name - there was Sea Wolf which might have been it:

Not hi-res though...

Could be Sea Mines which was a type in by Richard Taylor. Was published in Volume 3 issue 9 of Your Computer Magazine.

Page 124 (got it in front of me)

One of the games I always wanted to type in but never got around to at the time. Just recently got hold of a copy of the magazine but haven't typed it in yet again

There is a download of it here http://zxspectrum.hal.varese.it/zx81.htm
