It's done! I have just released the Compendium version of #Elite for the #Acorn #Electron.
This massively enhanced version of the original game contains pretty much every feature of #BBCMicro Elite, but on the Electron. Just add 16K of sideways RAM.
Links in thread.

My new project is an all-singing, all-dancing version of #Elite on the #Acorn #Electron.
It's early days, but I'm really enjoying it. So here’s a thread about the wonderful community hardware and software I'm using to port #BBCMicro Elite to the Elk. (1/7)

Atari Missile Command for the Acorn Electron + 16k of sideways RAM.
Progress remains good, moving as much as possible out of the main memory map into the SWR memory space to get the fastest speed possible.
No sound at present, going to be a challenge to emulate a POKEY chip on here.

Multi-part tunes via SWRAM banks are now working on the BBC Micro Music Player & Driver. I can finally play lengthy conversions such as Rob Hubbard's epic Knucklebusters track at nearly 17 minutes. Time to put some new music disks together...

On a whim I counted all my retro computers. I have 24 of them. That is either very bad or very good, I'm not sure which...
