CSS CGC 2013 Officially Open

posted by TecSoft

And for the duration of the year it will live at: www.csscgc2013.blogspot.co.uk.

The comp.sys.sinclair crap games competition started in 1996, when a competition to create the crappest game possible for the Spectrum was decided upon following a suggestion by a visionary known only as 'Blood'.** Inspiration came from the most buttock clenchingly bad compilation ever: The Cascade Cassette 50, the exciting inlay and advert betrayed a sorrowful collection of unplayable BASIC games created by uncredited 14 year olds paid £10 for their trouble (which they possibly used to buy the cassette!).

The competition is in its 18th year and is so highly regarded across the world it has a page on Wikipedia.

Please email your crap games to: cgc2013(at)rocketmail.com.

[PentEvo] Uwol, Quest For Money

posted by breeze

Вот так тихо и не заметно вышла ещё одна игрушка под альтернативную прошивку TS Labs для Pentagon Evolution. Sergey78 портировал SEGA-версию от Shiru игрушки от MojonTwins - Uwol, Quest for Money.

Управление: стрелки + пробел или Kempston джойстик. Пауза - Enter.
В игре используются хардварные тайлы и спрайты, поэтому для запуска нужна конфигурация TS-Labs rev.618 или новее.

Задать вопросы автору и высказать свои пожелания, вы можете на форуме TS-Labs в соответствующей теме.

UPD: Просьба перекачать архив с игрой, исправлен небольшой глюк.

Brand New Game: Dead By Dawn by Malcolm Kirk

posted by nix./site

Screenie Dead By Dawn is a new 3D adventure game heavily inspired after the cult movie called Evil Dead 2: playing as Bruce Charcoal, you need to find twelve pages of a spellbook so you could seal the evil you've accidentally unleashed back. The controls may be a bit unorthodox, so here's a rundown of the game complete with the author's description, controls list and download links.

To make things quick, you can download the original pack or Goodboy's disk version.

Brand New Game: Dave Infuriators by Black Jet

posted by nix./site

Screenie Okay, here's a new platform game from England, which is completely unorthodox to anything you may have played on Spectrum before. It's controlled with only two buttons (spacebar for jumping and M for changing direction), it's full of traps, it's pretty hard to beat the clock or your own record (although that depends on what difficulty you choose).
