Re: Flagon Bird

It's great to see the Dragon homebrew scene starting to take off again. This game is a killer example of what can be achieved within the limited (by modern standards) confines of the Dragon 32/64. Well done, Bosco. My seven year old son played it last night on xroar and he thought it was "cool". You...

Re: Chess on the Dragon

Thanks, Alastair! I'll have a look at these tonight. TBH, given my own level in chess, the more basic the game, the better :D

Text based adventures software

Does anyone know of software for Windows which helps in the design and coding of text-based adventures? I have a few ideas that I want to try out, with the ultimate goal of trying to port to the Dragon.

Re: New Dragon 32/64 Software

Just to add my ha'penny worth. I too would love to see new games being developed for the Dragon and would happily pay €10 to €12 for a cassette or download. My own preference would be for text-based adventures or arcade clones. Maybe if a game designer gets the coding done, a kickstarter campaign co...

The quality is acceptable - there's probably only so much I ca...

Re: Question about emulation modes in Xroar

Success! I used the ROMs that you linked to Zephyr and they all seem to work nicely. Thank you. I am now happily EXEC'ing away in Dragon 64 mode enjoying the extra RAM. :D
