Back To BASIC

So I got an emulator! This emulator in fact. Already through hands-on experience I have discovered that:

- Monsters wasn’t as scary as I made it out to be.
- It’s probably not worth doing a post on Arcade Action, Acornsoft’s attempt to write some games in Mode 7 so that owners of the BBC Micro Model A could actually play a game at some point in their hopeless, useless lives.
- The fact that games load in seconds means that I don’t have the same patience with them that I did when loading them took a half hour so you’d better be pretty damn sure you wanted to play.

Also, I’ve discovered that I can still write programs (or ‘code’ as you children call it) in BASIC.

So it’s time to bring back… my Fantastic Four Comic Generator! This is a program for the aforementioned BeebEm that I’ll be making more and more complex as the weeks go by, until finally you get randomly generated issues of the Fantastic Four delivered live to your eyes. Right now, all you’re getting is some fairly basic titles.

Download it here, then plug it into your BeebEm and ‘load state’ – then sit back and enjoy COSMIC RETRIBUTION!!
