They have a link to a "digital version for emulators" in the description for only £1.99.
https://cronosoft.fwscart.com/product/z ... r-emulator
I wonder if that version can be made to to run on real hardware...
As that's only $2.72 USD, I just tried it, thinking maybe they will e-mail the file or something...
Dr. Beep's stuff is well worth it...
I did get an order confirmation, but no attachment or download link yet...

I saw that link, but didn't see the names of any of those games in the dropdown list. Let me know if you get the files.

They are part of the "Super Programs 10" collection, which is what I ordered (digital version for emulators).
No download link yet, so it might have to wait till Monday if they are off for the weekend...
I don't generally do emulators, but for my TS1000, I generally load everything from a TZXDuino so hopefully that pack includes some .p files. (Or .wav or something I can convert and use on my TAXDuino)
As I'm in the US, shipping for physical tapes is a bit extra and I haven't actually tried any real tapes yet...
(I do have a tape drive from my Aquarius that might work if I ever need to try it...)
I'll let you know if it does so you could order it too... When I get it...
I didn't know about it before so I wasn't in a rush, but now that I have ordered it, I want it!!! No patience!!!
Have a good one!

Just got the e-mail with all the .p files attached!
So yeah, all you have to do is order the digital edition of "Super Programs 10" and they will eventually send you the .p files for all those programs, including those three games!

Hello, Dr Beep here.
I coded the games for Cronosoft since I got requests to bring out my games on tape.
An extra request came to have a digital version also and that is indeed now also available.
You can convert all .p to .wav with a p2wav program and then load those wav in real hardware or record it yourself on tape.
The games are tested and will run on real hardware, even in 1K and yes... sometimes memory is really tight.
Games like K-MAN and LADYBUG have a packed screen that is needed to load the game. After loading the screen is unpacked to fit each byte in 1K.
The games are out since june so at Cronosoft only at the moment.
BTW I only allowed the games to be released on tape. I am earning exactly nothing on it.

At least it is supporting Cronosoft...
And I got your book earlier, so I can support you that way at least!
Thanx again!
