Re: Tee Off

Fantastic work.
Until I saw I saw it on Ebay a couple of months back thought this game did not even physically exist in the small cassette form......I hope nobody spent a small fortune to get the tape.

Re: Hello all - ex Dragon owner

Well worth the wait at 1.5 mins- and a vast improvement on ten mins plus.....

I wonder if the real aim of the extended loader was to make sure c15/c20 tapes would not fit the games, making them less attractive to copy......

Re: Hello all - ex Dragon owner

Thanks, great idea. The Buzzard Bait case certainly has room for another cassette with a truncated version..... :D IIRC Buzzard Bait was indeed released without the dongle- certainly for the Coco, pretty sure for the Dragon too. Every version of Cashman I have ever seen has been the super long one t...

Re: Hello all - ex Dragon owner

Hello! I have to admit that I like cassettes, so much so that if I have a cassette that does not work I will actually blank the cassette and re record the wav onto the cassette, or if it is totally knackered a new C15. Very, very sad, I know, but somehow it feels like cheating otherwise. I never had...

Re: 3d deathchase

Well thanks very much for the link, I will look forward to giving it a bash on a real 64 and a Tano. I really hope you do get to contact the elusive fellow and get a physical release like the fabulous Glove had.

3d deathchase

Can I ask if this is in the archive still- I can't see it there in either cas or wav form?
I can see the threads here about the game being added to the archive (the link to download it is not working), but I can't see the game.
Were there copyright/permission issues regarding releasing it?
Thanks,

Re: Tano Dragons

Just a little update on this- the other day one of my games randomly artifacted Orange/Blue rather than Purple/Green. It then reverted back to vivid Purple/Green.

Mower?

Does anyone know the origin of a Basic game called "Mower"? Its about a lawnmower that runs about leaking oil and dodging molehills. I am not sure if it was a type in game from a magazine or part of a compendium- it did not ring any of my Dragon User memory bells, but no doubt someone will recognise...

Re: Attic Bug - ebay - Dragon

Feel free to not say, but may I ask which ones tempted you to buy?
Do you think people want to own copies of something multiple times in each format and with each packaging it was released in?
