Roadkill
Here's another fun little game. Originally published by Timex as part of the "Mixed Game Bag III" collection, 1982. Programmed by Micheal Orwin. My mods... I've increased the play area to the full 24 line display. Changed control keys to Q-A-O-P instead of 5-6-7-8. Sped up the game with a couple MC ...

Alien Attack CHR$128 version
This is a frantic little game! The original is only around 900 bytes, 512 bytes for the MC and the rest is for the BASIC loader. The program is interesting in that multiple key presses are permitted, so you can move and fire at the same time, you'll need to do this. There doesn't seem to be an ammo ...

Re: multi-statement in zx81 basic?
Implementing multistatement lines is actually fairly simple, in MC. It's just a matter of keeping track of the chr addresses in the line. The program "SHREB" from 1986 uses multistatement lines. Since you have a ZXPand you maybe interested in these programs... https://www.sinclairzxworld.com/viewtop...

Re: Zeddy displaying wrong characters on screen
I recall, along time ago, that I had a similar problem and replacing the voltage regulator fixed the problem. I got this idea from a forum posting but I can't find it. Not being a hardware guy I have no idea why the voltage regulator would garble the display, but replacing it worked for me. Regards ...

Falling Balls
"Falling Balls" is another interesting strategy game. First published in "Hebdogiciel", the type-in was done by XavSnap. My version is essentially the same but with french text replaced with Google english. I did add a SEED mod so that you can replay the same game again to get a higher score. There ...

Black Hole
Black Hole is a nice little strategy game, no twitchy fingers needed. The object of the game is to get the highest score possible. It does take planning your moves. There is no winning you compete against yourself. Strategic hints... Don't collect a Platinum or Diamond asteroid until you have a big ...
