This is another catch-up release announcement.
Sharp-eyed forum regulars over at *. will already know that Andy Ford's beeb ports of two ZX Spectrum adventures
Galaxias and
Project-X: The Micro Man were launched over there, last year.
Right from the first release of
Galaxias, Andy included a link to
Retro Software on the epic title screen, and has now offered to maintain them as freebies under the RS label, to save these conversions being lost in our busy forums.
You can find DFS disc image downloads for both the new text adventure conversions at the permanent project page here:
http://www.retrosoftware.co.uk/sgapBoth games were authored with
The Quill text-only adventure creation system for the BBC Micro. If anyone is able to lay their hands on a copy of the original disc version of
The Quill, Andy would dearly love to hear from you in the forum.
Please leave feedback for the author in the
forum, on your progress through the games.
Many thanks and do keep an eye on the project - Andy is already considering more ports, including the first game he started on:
Urban Upstart.
