Yeah, it may be illegal (not sure) but deffo the appropriate thing to do, and I imagine the owner would be grateful. It looks like the cop just wants to play the โ€˜I am the authority hereโ€™ game.

I'm thinking about keyboard input for RR2 on Mac and Windows PC. Imagine most people will use joypads? If not, maybe 1 or 2 players on keyboard, which keys should be default?

Ah yeah. The little notices, like speech bubbles from the car, I use them for all sorts, position changes, damage indicator, lap number, taunts from AI cars etc.

Yep, that's the one. It's not my original game, I was just paid to port it to the Beeb, I think it could have been a C64 game, can't remember.

Quid de Qwak ? Qwak is a particularly well-crafted game in the style of Lode-Runner / Bubble Bobble / Bombjack era, but with the level of polish of the Amiga era

If I had to pick a game I know that could be the one-year project of a pair of students, that would rather be sylvainhb.blogspot.com/2009/04/quid..., though. Fairly fun to play, reasonable amount of features.

Its developer @mrqwak.bsky.social might have a different opinion, of course ^^"

03.04.2025 08:57 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yes, that's that one. It's probably over 40 years old that game.

Original Qwak was on the BBC. Before that, I made the BBC version of Dead or Alive for Alternative S/W and before that I had a number of unpublished games on the BBC, including โ€˜Zap!โ€™ which was later released. The earliest game I remember making was space invaders on the BBC but with only 1 invader!

Hey thatโ€™s a cool article thanks, and I think they understand the game well, itโ€™s design elements etc. I canโ€™t read the French (is that right?) bits though, are they translated to the purple text?

Actually it's a total Hot-Rod ripoff, don't tell SEGA! :)

Is Retro Racing 2 a blatant rip-off of Micro Machines?

Yeah the competition idea to win free copies isnโ€™t a bad idea! Just thinking what format would work bestโ€ฆ

Be honest, am I making too many spammy (look at my new game) type posts here? I really think I need to post more often and about different things; any requests?

Well yeah, confusion on County / Continent aside; it's called reciprocity. You do good things for others, you get good back. You try to screw others, you find out!

The brilliant Retro Racing 2 Pro from @mrqwak.bsky.social is now available at a bargain limited time launch price of ยฃ2.99. Even the normal price of ยฃ4.99 is a steal

I already own it on iOS but that didn't stop me getting it on Android too (just don't tell Mrs RR8!)
