I didn't use it directly but it helped spur on the competition with acorn and the BBC micro that did change my life, I didn't appreciate the ZX at the time but have grown to love it and the impact it had.
A reminder that Rob Napier's history of Acorn, the BBC and ARM is available to buy now! Do spread the word, as he's also donating a percentage of the royalties to various computing museums, including @tnmoc.bsky.social 😀 Link to order here: amzn.eu/d/00BQj8tz

Simpler for eBay to make more profit, companies always disguise a terrible experience for users behind catchy marketing 🤪🤬
Clever use of palette change part way down the screen to make more visible colours than the usual 4 available in mode 1, this was a popular game for the high score competition on stardot

Highlight for me, a friend and I played this many nights and weekends until completion, great game then and still fun to play, difficult yes but ultra engaging and rich in gameplay and mystery.
QTeletextMaker v0.8-beta released. The Level 2.5 #teletext editor now renders DRCS characters and slightly improved diacritical'd G0 capital letters.
Grab a Windows exe from the zip at github.com/gkthemac/QTe... (mind the SmartScreen warnings!) or compile the source on Linux with #Qt6 and CMake.

Latest version of BeebEm available. Without such great work as this I don't think I'd even attempt any retro development as such.

It's done! I have just released the Compendium version of #Elite for the #Acorn #Electron.
This massively enhanced version of the original game contains pretty much every feature of #BBCMicro Elite, but on the Electron. Just add 16K of sideways RAM.
Links in thread.

My new version of #Acorn #Electron #Elite is feature-complete! Now for some testing.
Here's the feature list. It’s big! Big enough that this is effectively a Compendium version of Electron Elite; to sit proudly alongside the #BBCMicro Compendia. 🫡
Not long now!

My favourite musician that ever lived just died 😭. Rest in peace Sylvester Stewart!
I will never forget the first time I heard 'You can make it if you try'. It was one of the best moments in my life and I will never forget that feeling. Fly high Sly! #slystone
