New show Episode 4 streaming now. Please share. It seems I am doing two a week at the moment. I'll calm down eventually I suppose. But for now it's a very absorbing retirement hobby and besides something I've wanted to do for YEARS. www.mixcloud.com/philsouth/th...

10/10 headline in my news feed today.

A headline from ScienceDaily, suggesting that a 'massuve asteroid hit the North Sea and triggered a 330-foot tsunami'.

While technically correct, the headline does not clarify that the event happened about 45 million years ago.

Thought I'd check the Steam sale to check out whether video games these days are still utterly bonkers. Yes. Yes they are.

Well it's taken a few years but we have finally made it. It took quite a bit to get it over the line in the end, but Lee Bee has done a phenomenal job on the music BubbleBack, our sequel to Forward to the Past, now available for free on Itch. Enjoy! sloanysoft.itch.io/bubbleback #ZXSpectrum

Someone at the Post Office is going to be getting an unwelcome visit.

A 2000ad comic, which has been rudely ripped in the mail. Ironically, the cover features Judge Dredd, saying "Break it and I'll find you, Creeps!".

Voting has concluded in the SpectrumComputing.co.uk Game of the Year 2024 vote. We had a remarkable 164 eligible Spectrum 48/128k games in scope. The final results are as follows. 5th : Scramble RX An impeccable port of the 1981 arcade classic. Better late than never. #speccy #zxspectrum

Superb loading screen for Scramble RX on the ZX Spectrum featuring stylish spacecraft speeding towards a futuristic city, mimicking the style of the original arcade cabinet.

Gameplay of Scramble RX on the ZX Spectrum, as the player ship speeds above a row of fuel tanks and rockets, blasting fire at the enemy alien craft. Eat plutonium death, you disgusting alien weirdos!
