Re: MCP40 "hand written" font

I remember it was a type-in, maybe from "Oric Owner" magazine .. if anyone has those, it'd be worth a peek, there is one issue dedicated to the printer .. (#9)

Re: Not another boulder dash clone!

I really like the effect that happens when you switch between the birds-eye-view map and then rapidly into the game level .. this is a sort of polish not usually seen on an Oric game, and sort of makes the whole thing smooth, imho.

Re: Line Feed - Oric MCP40 demo at Solskogen

Pushes my nostalgia button up to 11, very nice to see the old MCP printing away, and amazing how visceral the sound of the pen-change mechanism is to me, even today ..

Re: Not another boulder dash clone!

Really nice game! I made some screenshots so that others can see the polish and refinement in your effort. ;) I like this game a lot, and we'll be playing through it as much as we can .. Nice one!

Re: writing disk images for a real Oric

Welcome to defence-force witchy, great to hear of your adventures so far - would love to be kept informed of what else you get up to with your Orics! I think you do a great job of keeping the spirit alive, sir!

Re: OASIS development

That Soviet Worker Green is surprisingly similar to the hue reflected in my experiences during work at a cubicle farm. Productive, Comrade!
