This was such a good intro to the game, really set the stage, and the gimmick boss battle is fun

Well, I will say other than this hiccup and the usual Super ZZT problem of figuring out exactly what's on screen at any given time, the experience of editing has been very smooth so far, nice work (using ClassicZoo DOS in Zeta for Mac)

Ah thank you! I just kind of assumed it was a FIFO queue sort of thing, but that makes sense too.

...you know, it just hit me, "Enter/Return" is working for most things, it's just one thing that's not working, copying whatever's under the cursor to the pattern list. But that's probably more likely to be a bug with ClassicZoo SUPERZ, I guess?

Does anyone happen to know how to make an "Enter" keystroke (as opposed to "Return") on a MacBook Air keyboard? @asie.pl maybe since this is for use in Zeta

Nomura no Famicom Trade was a stock trading application for the Japan-only dial-up modem add-on for the Famicom. Through a Nintendo collaboration, the game featured Mario on the information screen, doing a unique little dance.

New blog post! A what-if scenario where we try to see how a home computer designer might've dealt with the field-sequential color television, had the Korean War not stopped that standards' rollout. Enjoy! nicole.express/2026/the-app...

A screenie of Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis intro sequence in room with lots of cat statues and pottery, with unexpectedly sharp Japanese characters over the cursor given the 320x200 resolution

A screenie of Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis intro sequence in room with lots of cat statues and pottery, with unexpectedly sharp Japanese characters over the cursor given the 320x200 resolution

Learned a neat fact about the FM Towns thanks to musing how it managed to such sharp kanji on a 320x200/240 game while trying out its port of Indiana Jones & The Fate of Atlantis.

Its custom video chip allows a higher resolution layer to be overlaid with a lower res one. In this case, subs.

A rather serious biz style ad for Sharp's EL range of electronic calculators, now with 'rolling writer' function. It's got white serif text on black and a photo of the silver grey calculator.

Now you can try and type even longer rude worlds using numbers

In today's installment of twee names for technological leaps that would soon become standard: Sharp's 'Phantom Display' desktop calculator from 1980.

No more being restricted to only what will actually fit in a little display; now you can tiptap something longer than it for the first time.
