Thanks. I followed the link and it says listing closed even though there are two available. Argh.
oops so it does... sorry my bad... maybe keep your eyes open for the next special event at RCM ( http://www.retrocomputermuseum.co.uk/) and then drop Baggers a line to see if he is going, he often does.. take an SD and ask him to sign it :lol:

anyway the download version is working just fine for me with an original zxpand running 2.6 firmware. you did read the read me, right ?

Yep read it and done what's asked and zilch. The only key that does anything is the M key which when pressed just shows various vids from the game no other key does anything, although the vid player works.

The reason I asked if this is a demo is because of this line taken from one of the TWO read me files.

The Eighty One version just freezes as I said before.

so it's just a movie, not even playable on the zx81? But does anyone have the source code for the game?

It is movie clips, and it works great on a real ZX81 with ZXpand attached.

Just to clarify - it is an implementation of the full game - not JUST video clips / a movie
