Bartolo's Quest -ZX Spectrum-

 CRAP GAME COMPETITION 2026 by Molisoft

Bartolo's Quest is a game for ZX Spectrum!

Bartolo isn't your conventional hero who sets out on epic adventures; he simply "surrenders himself" to his nightly sacred mission: getting absolutely plastered at the bar counter, reaching levels of inebriation that would make "La Trini" herself look positively sober by comparison. But his true trial by fire doesn't occur amongst pints and boozy laughter, rather in the most critical moment of each day: the homeward return. You see, our protagonist's internal compass suffers a catastrophic malfunction precisely upon stepping onto his doormat, transforming what should be a simple everyday act—opening a door—into a surgical precision operation worthy of a ninja infiltrating enemy territory. 

The challenge doesn't consist of drinking even the water from the flower vases (he's already mastered that), but rather inserting the key into the lock without awakening the most lethal motion sensor known to humankind: his fearsome missus, armed with the avenging frying pan that waits impatiently behind the door. This survival horror based on true events gives you exactly five attempts to demonstrate your hand-eye coordination whilst Bartolo brandishes the key as though engaged in a fencing duel, swaying between lucidity and alcoholic delirium. And here comes the brilliant bit: as the nights progress and Bartolo drinks increasingly more, the side effects manifest themselves ruthlessly—the controls treacherously invert themselves, the keyhole appears to be dancing flamenco before your distorted senses, and the accumulated stress rivals late-night sessions of Alien Isolation with headphones at full volume. Compiled with Boriel+ASM and blessed with impeccable keyboard response, this absurd little gem makes you laugh out loud whilst you experience a sensation of virtual drunkenness so convincing that each failure spurs you to try again, unable to accept defeat before the definitive frying pan wallop. Ridiculously moreish, Molisoft!

PONG.AI -ZX Spectrum-

 by htw8849

The author used claude.ai (Sonnet 4.5 Engine) to write a pong clone in assembler language for the ZX Spectrum.

He used Google Nano Banana (+some tuning with GIMP/ZX Paintbrush) to generate the title screen which loads on the tap-file.

The result is a good Pong clone game.

Is Artificial Intelligence the future?

LADDER -ZX Spectrum & C64-

BASIC 10 Liner (pseudo-)3D videogame for the ZX Spectrum and Commodore 64

Laddder (a.k.a. Lader3D) is, as the name implies, the... er... "3D" sequel to the Lader platformer.  It's a pseudo-3D game for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum and Commodore 64 home computers, inspired by the classics 3D Monster Maze (Sinclair ZX81) and Treasure Hunt (PC/DOS).

You find yourself in a maze, which you must explore in order to find the treasures. When you find a treasure, you'll score 1 point and will be teleported to a new maze. Avoid being touched by the ghosts, otherwise you'll lose one life. If you are in trouble, you can teleport to another maze, but this will cost you 1 point. Oddly, there are no ladders in this game.

Violent Vengeance -PC-

 by OzzyOuzo

Violent Vengeance: the Universe Hero is a one-on-one fighting game developed by Accend on MS-DOS in 1995.

We are bringing it to the Neo Geo with a brand new game engine, entirely revised gameplay, and some extra goofiness.

The game is NOT finished; it is currently available as an early Beta (= about complete in terms of content, but needs debugging and lots of fine tuning) for you to try out, and possibly help us improve and balance it out. 

It features:

• 10 playable characters (and their associated stages), each with the special moves you’ve come to expect 
• 2 bosses (not playable)
