Prototyping/Programming games for retro machines. I also enjoy #pixelart. (Iapetus/Japetus(pronounced Yapetus) was a Titan in Greek/Roman myth.) 日本語が大好きだ。At the moment programming Zezito in the Glittering Caves for several retro machines. #forth
I dont't mind the other keys but 'ZX:/ RETURN' would be the ones during the 80's for me. I didn't have an elk then but the two key sets positioning were also available on the machine I played on. my friends normally preferred the AZ set

The flu still lingers, but just started again with Chuckulus.... Found a bug that I swear wasn't there when I got ill. What's the 'GO!' bubble doing over there ??! 🙄
Put in a key control set option, so you can choose between 'ZX:/ RETURN' and '<>AZ SPACE' to control Harry ! Which would you choose?

thx.couldn't help as I have a vg5k here.But it helps also with develpmnt of my other z80 versions of the game as the logic will be shared,this 1 also was faster because I had z80 stuff from the speccy. But the sprt engine was harder as it only has char modes & port communication with VRAM is slow.

Many thanks to @rasto1968.bsky.social and @0xc0de.bsky.social for testing a very early beta version of Chuckulus.
I'm ploughing through *cough* a few issues they have bought up, one of which was the scrolling appearance of the DUCK cage at the top of level. I knew it wasn't right, that's better !
