Sam Coupé fan. don't dislike other systems either. z80 + vids dabbler, graphics, writing + life. Grumpy! Dislike nasty folk. Tinyurl.com/samstersvideos I also like to waffle about music, Television, etc. Love most 80's, 90's and clubby music.

Wouldn't risk your safety going over while the tangerine tyrant is there

Remember speaking to the author of Supercom. Also did an unusual Sam game as well.

Mine gave me a pretty nasty scar on the back with a table leg when she was about 6 years old!

She was pretty strong for her age for sure.

Definitely hope to get one of the new machines eventually!

Hmmm... I need help from the BlueSky hive mind.

The next phase of Beast development is going to cost for prototyping and dev kits. There's some interesting stuff planned, but I can't afford to push it forward.

Selling MicroBeasts helps, though sales are hard in the current economic environment. 🧵

i'm not sure on the soundspecs on the system, but are you considering a sound effects/sample option for special circumstances?

sounds like a good addition

Always enjoy a good "mash-up" - and particularly if its two favourite songs...

Pet Shop Boys - Postscript (I Believe In Ecstasy) YouTube video by kurirox

A genuine hidden track - on the original relase of the Pet Shop Boys Album - "Very" - just after the last track.

And Chris actually sings on it!

Aye probably but the tangerine tyrant still hasn't been charged

I am keen on a lot, and good to see a number of different styles but it's personal choice at end of day. Always ways they could be better

Caligula I believe?

The '81 came out the right time with many electronics dabbling publications being about, so a lot of interest in a cheap machine to interface with projects.

Ending up with things like this of course.

I enjoyed the UK computer shopper magazine - even the adverts were interesting!

One of my favourite films, and the song is fun too.
