The Speccy version of Green Beret is very good.
I've got to work out some more strategies for dealing with those jumping guys. I knew how to get them on other versions. But these guys just hang in the air for so long. 🤔

My ZX Spectrum tweet in celebration of 40 years of the Speccy. (A machine I never had. But a friend at school did, and man it was fun.) 😄

Years later I found this thing on the Amiga called an "emulator" and I was totally hooked. 👍

My Favourite C64 Arcade Adventures No.15

Saboteur

Durrell

1986

It may be a straight port from the Speccy original but Saboteur is still an excellent game. A cracking combination of stealth, beat ‘em up & arcade adventure, it’s addictive, exciting and thoroughly engrossing.

Underwurlde was, I think, the first mega-maze game I played. And it was Sabreman, who is just adorable. I played it a ton on my friends Speccy, played it more on my C64, and then played it even more after getting the Zzap!64 map. It was beautiful in its cruelty. Up 5, fall 10. 😮

Thank you Speccy, you did an amazing job.

I am happy to announce that the ZX Spectrum graphics for Rabenstein are ALL done. I am working on the MSX1 gfx now and I am adding extra pixels wherever I can, to make use of the extended palette and not just port the Speccy look over. And boy, do the MSX1 graphics look great!
