Re: MCP40 "hand written" font
I remember it was a type-in, maybe from "Oric Owner" magazine .. if anyone has those, it'd be worth a peek, there is one issue dedicated to the printer .. (#9)

Re: Not another boulder dash clone!
I really like the effect that happens when you switch between the birds-eye-view map and then rapidly into the game level .. this is a sort of polish not usually seen on an Oric game, and sort of makes the whole thing smooth, imho.

Re: Not another boulder dash clone!
Really nice game! I made some screenshots so that others can see the polish and refinement in your effort. I like this game a lot, and we'll be playing through it as much as we can .. Nice one!

Re: OASIS development
That Soviet Worker Green is surprisingly similar to the hue reflected in my experiences during work at a cubicle farm. Productive, Comrade!
