Finally got hold of a copy of ‘Ghost of the Badlands’ with fantastic artwork by @GPrime85. Really looking forward to this! 👌

@JeffArnoldX @gamesyouloved 👆 THIS !

@gamesyouloved 10p and lucky if you last 3 minutes 😂 Pacland

What was your ‘go to’ game in the arcade when you were a kid (not a teenager)?? Mine was this - I was 11 years old and played the crap out of it one holiday in the Arcade. A trifle difficult even with my reactions then 😂

The Cannonball Run a 1981 film directed by the legendary Hal Needham and starring Burt Reynolds. The Cannonball Run Archive is my tribute to this iconic film. cannonballrunarchive.com

@DirtyWalsall Thanks for the info. Really appreciate it!

@SpectrumNez Yeah they both opened today. Unfortunately they don’t call at Walsall but don’t see why in the future they can’t have trains from Rugeley Trent Valley to Shrewsbury via Walsall to get them connected. Would be really nice to have a direct train to Wolvo again from Walsall

Cheeky return to Wolverhampton from Willenhall on its opening day why not, lovely weather 😁🚅 🌞

@DirtyWalsall Has the Darlaston one opened today then as well? I might have to try them at some point as the Tamebridge parking situation in now beyond ridiculous!

@SpectrumNez Nah it wasn’t busy. Less than 10 people but it was about 3pm. Very useful if you live in Willenhall and work in Birmingham city centre. 20 mins 😀

I read it! I loved it! I can’t believe Disney have the rights to this and have done nothing with it. They must be totally demented!🥴

Tonight! Ghostopolis by @DougTenNapel 👌

@tomjamespotter Dude. This is an amazing improvement! I get the feeling that, once you step into assembly completely, you are going to be unstoppable! You’ve not only got the skills, but the ideas! 👌

Woohoo! Trying to increase the map size, I kept getting slowdown issues with my scripting tools, so I rolled up my sleeves and rebuilt the entire scrolling routine in pure Z80 assembly. Look at it GOOOOOOO!!!🚀🚀🚀 #ZXSpectrum #retrogaming #8bit #indiedev #Sinclair #lasersquad

@CommodoreBlog Windows is absolute garbage these days. I’m forced to use it for work and I absolutely hate what it has become. An ugly, bloated, AI ridden mess.

I'm almost ready to hit the order button for the Mac mini m4, I really think my time with Windows is over...

@merman1974 @RetroGamer_Mag Hi Andrew. That would be ace. I’ll get in touch with Geoff and come back to you!👍

@SpectrumNez Very cool, would like to cover this for @RetroGamer_Mag

1/2 A quick, rough look at ‘The Portal War’. A Spectrum Next game coming out this year. A turn based strategy game (think Advance Wars GBA). Music by me! (Yes, you can turn it off!)😂

@scottwolf14 @DougTenNapel Just ordered it! 😎

I just finished reading @DougTenNapel's Ghostopolis. It was a good read. Got a couple chuckles out of me and the Bone King was easily my favorite. It's got a few flaws but art direction and storytelling weren't among them. The imagination aspect was played off really well.

@tobobobo @Indie_RetroNEWS @AmigaBill_ @hayesmaker64 @TheRetroAsylum @ClassicReplay Agreed! That slow walking though… 😶

@Indie_RetroNEWS @AmigaBill_ @hayesmaker64 @TheRetroAsylum @ClassicReplay I am a die-hard Speccy fan …but that is beautiful.

Can’t beat a bit of Monty on a long train journey! ZX Spectrum on the go!🕹️👌

@hardistymark @eBay_UK My Mum bought me this from a local shop back in the day. It was absolute rubbish! Just couldn’t get it to work with the surf board. She ended up taking it back and getting her money back!

Fun dual-format title. Think to still have the surfboard is a rare thing? Check out surfchamp ZX Spectrum/C64 - TESTED - INCLUDES RARE NEW CONCEPTS SURFBOARD ebay.us/m/cAUI3H #eBay via @eBay_UK
