Reviewing Sinclair Games - Send me your (Soft)wares!

Post by Villordsutch »

Hello all. Some of you may know that I'm reviewing games on YouTube and a lot of you may not. However this is a call if you've created an ZX81 games that are rather splendid on 1K or 16K (Hi Res or not) could you let me know as I'd like to give them a run on my YouTube channel?

I'm also interested in some wonderful ZX Spectrum homebrew'ed games to so just show or point me to them.

I'll link people towards them in the description and as you can see in my descriptions people are credited.

If you want to have a look at my YouTube channels I've listed them below.

Been watching the reviews of ZX81 games and your Sinclair user countdown, all really fun stuff, more please. I'd nominate the classic ZX81 game "The Gauntlet" for a review, I personally feel it's one of the best Scramble clones on any system. http://www.zx81stuff.org.uk/zx81/tape/GauntletThe

Still working on a concept of a cardgame engine where you select rules and make a cardgame in that way.

I wouldn't call it Hires (or HRG - like it was called back then) it looks very much like User Defined Graphics (or UDG).
Looks like "dk'tronics 4K Graphics rom" Character Set No. 3.
