I want to try something new for my next game... please read!

Post by dr beep »

For my latest (not fully released yet) game WORLDCAFE I asked you all to help me with lands for in the cafe.

Those who replied got the game this week and the rest of you will get the game when MAY THE 4TH is with you :)

However.... i all my released games a small line is mentioned : FREEWARE, BUT FEEDBACK IS APPRECIATED.

The feedback is also to keep the forum a bit active but seeing the amount of downloads the feedback is just minor, although appreciated.

So I want to try something new!

You can get my next game earlier but with a catch....
When you sign in for a early release you will also write/make a small review.
Rod Bell is often doing a review in a hilaric video but I would like to see more.

So now about the next game I have in mind:

A game like TRAINGAME A for the ZX Spectrum.
In 1K, screen as large as possible. The track will be plotted and the train is a single flashing dot/point/spot on the track.
So the title of the game will be a reference to the traindesign : TRAINSPOTTING

Your job will be to guide the train (dot) over the track and visit defined places in order within time by chanching the tracks.

At the moment I just started and I am working on a routine to follow the track.

So you can register here for a prerelease although the game is yet to code.......
When the game is ready you will get a PM with a downloadlink.

You can only register here at sinclairzxworld since this forum is how the link will be distributed.

I will make another thread about the development.......
