Your Game is Our Answer Retro Games Battle

    A little less than half a year ago, the Retro Games Battle 2014 contest was held (a post on the hub ), in which new games competed for a standard configuration ZX Spectrum retro computer with 128 KB memory and a processor frequency of 3.5 MHz.

    However, in addition to warm and tube old-fashioned Spectrum, there are already more sophisticated models, both quite old ones in the face of ATM Turbo , and super-modern in the face of ZX Evo (a post on the hub about other lotions to the Spectrum). Your Game 5

    contest was held in parallel with Retro Games Battle 2014, and, unlike the latter, did not limit the participants to the classic Spectrum configuration. Your game competition has

    long history . Starting as offline with the newspaper “Passage”, now it has modernized and went online . In order to stimulate the development of the ZX Spectrum platform, this time the game contest was held not only for the classics, but also for ATM Turbo 2 and ZX Evolution.


    The competition presents 10 games of varying degrees of “coolness” - from a sapper to a 3D shooter resembling Zero Tolerance. You can download the archive with the games (the customized emulator is attached) on the official website of the contest .

    And most importantly, you can vote for these games and help you choose a winner who will get a decent prize pool. This can be done until August 13 (until 23:59) on the voting page . Unfortunately, I have to register, but it seems to me that this is not a big obstacle.

    Almost all of these games work the same on ATM Turbo , and on another hardware that supports compatibility with it. In addition, Dune 2, Mine and Sexwords even work on the classic Spectrum.
