Posting this here as an easy reference for myself, to sort out the entries later! :)

Antonino Porcino has let me know that this entry in the database...
Astronave Di Farmer
http://solutionarchive.com/game/id%2C38 ... armer.html

is actually a version of Astronave Farmer, originally written in BASIC for the Sharp MZ80B by Mario Pettenghi and published as a type-in ​​listing on MC MicroComputer magazine n. 40 - April 1985 .

Antonino has produced both an interesting article (in Italian) and a GitHub page all about the game (including the program listing).

...and details of other ports, which I'll use to update/combine the entries later.

Done.

I notice we have another of Mario's games in the DB too. He appears to had quite an extensive and successful career as a computing journalist in Italy.
