Otro programa BASIC para el ZX Spectrum de la revista alemana "Happy Computer" tecleado y listo para ser usado. Un simulador de vuelo nocturno publicado en su número 15 (Enero 1985), de aspecto sencillo.
Próximamente, en el archivo de Spectrum Computing.
Poco a poco, tacita a tacita...
“The result is, if anything, trancier and more full of shimmer than the first album’s compositions, with undertones of Dollar Bill-like Afro-influence in its polyrhythmic textures,” writes Jennifer Kelly. https://dustedmagazine.tumblr.com/post/777836291758997504/basic-dream-city-no-quarter #music #basic
Cool blog post on Leaded Solder (one of my favorite blogs), where they make a space shooting game with Nintendo Family BASIC on the Famicom.
From unboxing to programming to the finished video of the game on YouTube, everything is carefully pictured, linked and documented-- an amazing post that really shows why I dig this blog so much.

My #qbsh talk also had a number of easter eggs in it that were easy to miss with the lightning talk format. For example, the slides were all numbered in tens:
10
20
30
With the last slide header being "200 SYSTEM" to indicate that slideshow was now over.
'The cover of MAD magazine No. 258 from October 1985 announces a “special computer section featuring the MAD Computer Program”.'
Somebody typed in all the source-code to draw your own vectorised Alfred E. Neuman on your 8-bit microcomputer of choice, so you can render it yourself. They also explained all the Sergio Aragones cartoons in the margins, because cultural references have drifted a bit in the past forty years.
@tml @jarizleifr @magdalenahai @PetraSaarnisto Eliza oli kova juttu myös kasarilla kun kotitietokoneet tulivat. Silloin tuli se Basic-ohjelmien kirjasta naputeltua ja kokeiltua. Oli vänkää hupia.
Kommenden Monat verramscht #Sony in #PlayStationPlus #Basic das aktuelle #Bioware #Spiel #dragon_age_the_veilguard. Hab ernsthaft überlegt es zu kaufen, jetzt kann ich es ohne zusätzliche Kosten spielen. Über #TMNT_The_Cowabunga_Collection 13 Spiele mit den Pizza mümmelnden mutierten Schildkröten die ursprünglich zwischen 1989 und 1993 für #ArcadeAutomaten, #NES, #SNES, #GameBoy und #SegaMegaDrive erschienen sind freue ich mich aber um ein Vielfaches mehr!

En el mismo número de Homecomputer en el que figura "Mr. Pacman", se publicó también otro juego para ZX Spectrum basado en una recreativa. En este caso, "Pooyan" (Konami, 1982).
Hasta el momento presente, es la única conversión de dicho arcade para el ordenador de Sir Clive Sinclair y está escrito en BASIC. Tal vez sería una buena idea, no muy original desde luego, de que alguien pudiera realizar una nueva versión del mismo pero utilizando código máquina.
