So, #SpaceGame is coming along nicely with the help of @SpectrumNez and his SpecForge utility. Looks like I'm going to add loads more rooms and complete this project quickly. #zxspectrum #gamedev #pixelart #retrogaming

You can now import an image into SpecForge to use as your loading screen! Whether you should do, though, is another matter!😂

Before I go to bed, SpecForge 1.04 is up: • NEW! Energy: a hit reduces energy instead of taking a life, and collectables can restore it! • NEW! Tiles can be drawn in front of characters, so the characters can walk behind them! • IMPROVED! Games with ammo run a little faster! spectrumnez.com/specforge

It anybody speaks Italian, here's a nice play through attempt of Tobobobo Go Home - made in SpecForge! I watched it with auto-translate English subtitles and I had quite a chuckle at some parts! "Mamma Mia!"😂 youtube.com/watch?v=a6oPMcuL…

The first, in-the-wild, use of SpecForge's inbuilt tracker to create AY Speccy game music! Well done, sir!🫡
Quickly knocked up a crappy tune to go on the title screen. @SpectrumNez #zxspectrum #retrogames #gamedev

I hadn't considered a ruins theme until yesterday morning, and I nearly binned it because I really wasn't happy with it. Just over a day later, it's shaping up to be one of my favourites! #ZXSpectrumNext #RetroGaming
