This game looks good enough graphically to actually convince me to locate my link cable and attempt to run it...
Seriously though, these days it seems the 68k developers and community has rooted itself firmly in Europe.

This looks like it could be quite fun. I haven't played a platform calc game in a while (ever?). Maybe it's time to start again!

Yeah, it looks really cool. Sort of like the classic Gameboy platformers. Anyone know where some animated screens of this are?

Fedora RPMs for the Z80 Assembly IDE are now available from:

That's great, thanks a lot. I'd meant to make some RPMs and .debs, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Who says that all the people running GNU/Linux are using old computers? What about those of us running GNU/Linux on our new computers? Even if our computers are powerful enough to run Window$ Vi$ta, this doesn't mean we actually want to!

Someone please make this game for TI 83+ it looks awesome! :D

I'm running CentOS Linux on an old computer that runs at only 2.6 GHz and has only 256 MB of RAM! OK, that's not *that* old. :)

Until about a year ago, my main computer was 300 MHz with 64 MB RAM, running Slackware Linux. Try running Vi$ta on that computer!

Also, I have a Sun Ultra SPARC 2 with 768 MB RAM and 2 CPU's running at 200 MHz each (sweet, eh?) on which I installed the latest FreeBSD. It's not GNU/Linux, but I'm trying out different options of *nix systems. Vi$ta can't even run on that type of processor. ;)

When I upgrade my main computer to something more "modern", I'll wipe out Vi$ta and install some flavor of GNU/Linux. I don't want any of that Digital Restrictions Management cr*p in my operating system.

Try Aurora for your SPARC, it's the SPARC port of Fedora (with a separate name because it's done independently of Fedora).

You just reminded me of why I wish I had a new computer. My SUSE system runs "fine" on my 400 MHz Celeron, but I'm getting quite annoyed at how much software, even open-source software, is becoming less and less usable on slow hardware as time goes by. I'm sure that a CPU this slow would be far more capable if popular programs like Firefox, OpenOffice.org, etc., were coded more efficiently.

Try using Konqueror and KOffice instead of Firefox and OpenOffice.org. Or maybe Dillo and AbiWord. It's not that there isn't choice.

Good idea--I took a quick look at KOffice but it didn't seem to have the features I needed. I didn't look very closely, though. It's hard to move away from Firefox, though, because of all the useful extensions available for it. I haven't looked at Dillo and AbiWord but I think I will some time.

Dillo is a very slim browser, but that also means it's missing several features usually taken for granted, like JavaScript.

Konqueror, on the other hand, can display most sites on the web, it's really a serious alternative to Firefox, and I use it all the time. And it's normally faster than Firefox and should also require less memory.

A second vote for Konqueror. I still use firefox for consistency between my kubuntu machines and the windows machine(s) i use regularly at work, and for the extensions i have become too used to. But konqueror is always faster, and better at handling downloads too. Slowly i am trying to make the switch...

I'll vouch for Abiword -- its much lighter/faster than openoffice (I feel your pain: openoffice runs too slow for my taste on my 933mhz PIII)

Ha, my computer runs at 244MHz with 256 MB of ram. And yet I'm able to run Kubuntu 7.04 with no trouble whatsoever. Heck of alot faster than win98, the os it was shipped with so many years ago.

Seriously? I need to try it... Windows XP is actually a lot more responsive than Ubuntu 6.10 (which can be painfully slow sometimes) on my 1 Ghz PIII with the same amount of RAM.

Unfortunately, IIRC, Ubuntu 6.10 was one of the worst Ubuntu releases. Or was Breezy Badger 6.04?

7.04 = Feisty Fawn
6.10 = Edgy Eft
6.06 (LTS) = Dapper Drake
5.10 = Breezy Badger
5.04 = Hoary Hedgehog
4.10 = Warty Warthog

Heh, so I've been out of Ubuntu for quite a while...

I was hoping Z80 Assembly IDE would get featured, thanks guys. Also, it would be unfair if I didn't point out that Spencer deserves the entire credit for the assembler (SPASM).

Revsoft pride!
