Really cool game! One more proof that Locomotive Basic, together with the great CPC firmware, was the best 8-bit Basic at the time! And call &bd1c for having a coloured 4x8 font is just genius!

You really are right! I am very proud to have owned one of the best machines of the 8-bit era, which was very poorly exploited.

Regarding the colored font trick, very apparent results can be achieved, it's a shame because I really expected more participation, once the trick was released. Maybe in the next editions...

I remember seeing this effect often when "something went wrong" with my machine code and returning to the basic prompt led to the unreadable font. But I never got the idea of using it for good!  

I used this 30 years ago, but never thought of generating fonts or graphics for games like now.

Hihi, I might have an idea to use it in the next CPCRetrodev, if you don't mind competition in the Basic category...

I'm absolutely glad of know that. For me, programing and see other Basic programs on the Amstrad is the best manner of sense I'm back 30 years ago. I'm counting the minutes left to see your work. Enjoy!!
