The Texas Chainsaw Massacre -SEGA Mega Drive-

 by BigStump81

First of all, thank you for checking out my remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre!

I've always had a love for classic video games, especially the ones that bring back memories of the Atari 2600 era. There's just something special about those old-school games, and I've always enjoyed seeing what can be done to bring them back to life on newer hardware.

With this project, my goal was to bring The Texas Chainsaw Massacre from the Atari 2600 to the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive while staying as faithful to the original game as possible. I wanted to preserve the simple but addictive gameplay that made the original unique while giving it a fresh 16-bit look and feel.

That means bringing Leatherface and his trusty chainsaw back for another round of chasing victims, avoiding obstacles, and trying to rack up as many points as possible before running out of fuel! Along with the upgraded graphics, I've also worked on improving the animations, sound effects, and overall presentation while keeping that classic Atari 2600 gameplay experience intact.

I also want to mention something important: This is only my second attempt at creating video games! My first project was a Sega Genesis remake of Riddle of the Sphinx, and I'm still very much learning as I go!

There's definitely been a lot of trial and error along the way, and I'm sure there are things I could have done better. There may even be a few bugs I haven't discovered yet. So please, go easy on me! LOL!

I'm not a professional game developer. I'm just a retro gaming enthusiast who loves classic games and wanted to challenge himself, learn something new, and hopefully create something that other retro gaming fans can enjoy.

BACK OF THE NET! -ZX Spectrum NEXT-

Top-down footie for the ZX Spectrum Next by crofrsoftsoftware

Top-down football with local two-player matches, club management and hundreds of parody teams for the ZX Spectrum Next. 

 Pick your team, work the ball into space and put your chances away. Back of the Net! brings top-down football to the ZX Spectrum Next, with direct player control on the pitch and squad decisions between matches. 

Start with a friendly against the computer or a second player. Tap fire to pass, hold it to shoot, then use aftertouch to influence the ball. Headers, slide tackles, diving keepers and set pieces give you more ways to attack and defend. Meanwhile, an on-pitch referee follows the action, plays advantage and hands out cards. Each referee has a lenient, fair or strict temperament, so watch your tackles. 

 For a longer challenge, enter a preset competition, build your own league or cup, or take your club through a season. Play matches yourself or simulate results as you progress. Where competition rules require a winner, extra time and penalty shoot-outs settle the score. 

Career mode adds the manager’s office, transfer funds and board expectations. Buy, sell and exchange players as you reshape your squad. Results affect your job security, while sackings and job offers bring fresh decisions about your next club. 

Choose from 444 parody clubs across 24 countries, plus 36 national teams. The database includes around 200 spoof star players. With the team editor, you also have control over names, kits, players and positions. Use the tactics editor to prepare your approach, then change your line-up and make substitutions when the match demands it. 

Instant replays let you watch the action again, while crowd sounds and music accompany the football. Save your progress to SD card and return for the next fixture.

Quasar Forge -ZX Spectrum NEXT-

 by refactornator

Quasar Forge is a ship-building space combat game for the ZX Spectrum Next, inspired by the open source 'Event Horizon' by Pavel Zinchenko. The game uses 320x256 256-colour graphics in Layer 2 and is written in Z80N assembly.

Players start at the edge of a spiral galaxy consisting of 35 sectors arranged in four rings. Each sector contains nine areas, with a boss at the center. Defeating the boss conquers the sector and unlocks adjacent sectors. Progressing inward, players face escalating opposition: corvettes, frigates, destroyers, cruisers, and battleships, leading to the final confrontation with the OVERLORD battle station.

Ships defeated in battle drop credits and components. Salvaged wrecks can be added to a fleet of up to eight ships. In the hangar, players configure their ships cell by cell, fitting weapons, armor, reactors, devices, and drives. Components can be combined to form higher-grade equipment. Planets held by the player offer raiding opportunities via scrolling shooter levels, granting credits and blueprints for advanced parts manufacturing.

'Quasar Forge' incorporates gameplay features such as customizable ship-building, strategic sector progression, salvaging, equipment upgrading, and a mix of top-down galactic exploration with scrolling shooter sequences.

No Trust (ZX Spectrum Next)

 by shrek128

A platformer for the ZX Spectrum Next where you can't trust anything. Not even the floor.

You are Jax, a maintenance engineer from Sector Nine. You came to repair the station's core and found the names of the crew it had erased. You copied the missing crew log – and the core marked you for deletion. Every exit locked. Thirty sectors full of machines stand between you and the surface.

Your suit can restart your heart. It cannot make the next room safe.

About the game

• 30 sectors, 120 hand-built rooms. Each sector introduces one new idea and four rooms that push it a little further every time.
• The machines play by rules. Every trap behaves the same way every time. A saw warns you before it comes out, a press has a moment of delay. Learn the rules and you get through.
• Old traps come back. From sector eight on, traps from earlier sectors join each new mechanism, and the last sectors throw several at you at once.
• Quick restarts. Death puts you back at the start of the room. The game does count every one of them, though.
• Your progress is saved. The highest sector you reached stays unlocked, and you can start from it.
• Music: Respawn Rush by Shrek / MB Maniax.

The Great Giana Sisters (ZX Spectrum)

 by kirby2000

The Great Giana Sisters on the ZX Spectrum: all 33 stages, the bonus rooms, the hidden warps and every power-up.

A Spectrum version was reviewed back in 1988, then withdrawn before it reached the shops, and no copy is known to survive. This is a new conversion, made to fill that gap.

Two covers: UK or German

The game comes with a choice of two covers, one for each of the original boxes:

• UK cover (Rainbow Arts)
• German cover (Time Warp)

Each has its own loading screen and its own printable cassette inlay. Apart from that the games are identical, and both are in English, so just pick the cover you like best.

Build Dangerous Spectrum -ZX Spectrum-

 by revive8bits

Build Dangerous Spectrum is a game for ZX Spectrum.

Thanos is a building inspector. He is also immortal, which is the only reason he still has the job.

Every building in town is about to open, and every owner has the same plan: cut the ribbon, let the crowd in, and hope nobody finds the live wires, the hungry guard ferret and the "NOT A COMPACTOR" room before the insurance runs out. Thanos's job is to find every trap first. Since nothing can kill him, the quickest way to make a trap safe is to walk up to it and set it off. Then he signs the room off and moves on, while the crowd outside gets more impatient by the second.

He is immortal. Unimpressed. On duty.

Nintendo Game & Watch on ZX Spectrum 48K — Sharp SM510 Emulator

 by tuklusan

19 games. Real ZX Spectrum emulation. Original gameplay, LCD animations, and glorious misses.

What happens when a Sinclair ZX Spectrum 48K pretends to be a Nintendo Game & Watch?

It works. All nineteen times.

This collection brings 18 classic Nintendo Game & Watch LCD handheld gamesto the ZX Spectrum using a cycle-accurate Sharp SM510 emulator written in Z80 assembly. It also includes Munchy, a completely original LCD-style maze game.

These are not graphical remakes. The Spectrum's Z80 executes the original handheld game programs through an emulated 4-bit Sharp microcontroller, preserving their logic, timing, LCD segments, sounds, and Game A/B modes.

Two very different pieces of 1980s hardware. One unlikely collaboration.

Christina-Ley la sangre de Bran -ZX Spectrum-

 by michel

Christina-Ley la sangre de Bran es una aventura de texto para el ZX Spectrum.

El juego consta de 7 capítulos.

La aventura se desarrolla por opciones, con pequeños toques "boleros" como la energía y vampiros que nos protegen.

Transilvania, 1820. Hace cien años, la Orden del Fresno quemó viva a una mujer llamada Christina. De sus cenizas se levantó Christina-Ley, señora de la noche, que duerme en su cripta con su perrito Benito-Ley.

Esta noche, un crujido de piedra la despierta: alguien ha profanado su cripta y ha robado el relicario de su madre, lo único que le queda de su vida humana. Las huellas llevan al pueblo de Bran, al bosque de los lobos y a la abadía de la Orden. Habrá que hablar con todos, buscar pistas y desconfiar: no todos dicen la verdad.

Aldeanos, curas y monjes la esperan con estacas y agua bendita. Christina tiene poderes: lee la mente, se transforma en murciélago, hipnotiza y puede convertir a sus víctimas en aliados. Pero cada noche tiene un final, y el amanecer no perdona.

Doctor Who – Adventure Game -PC-

Graphical adventure, slightly reminiscent of the old LucasArts games by Sokurah 

Doctor Who – Adventure Game is just what it sounds like. You take control of the Fourth Doctor in this original graphical adventure that sees him visit many locations and encounter many foes – all of which are inspired by “real” locations from the show’s “classic era” (1963-1989), and along the way you have to solve various puzzles – some of which are also inspired by events from the TV show. Along the way you will encounter and interact with known characters such as Sarah Jane Smith, K9 and enemies such as Daleks, Cybermen, Krotons and others.

The game itself is inspired by games like Pyjamarama and the classic LucasArtsadventures games. You walk around the scenery, uncover items by examining things and then use those items to solve puzzles which will allow you to get further into the game. So grab your Sonic Screwdriver, hop into your TARDIS and get out there and explore the galaxy. Enjoy.
