CASA ::

There is one game in the database written by Chris Lampton (Starflight: A Cosmic Adventure) and one written by Christopher Lampton (The Quest), but I'm pretty sure this is the same author. See his blog at Adrift in the Infosphere. Can someone look into this?

Thanks for tracking down this version of 'Castle Adventure'. I had it in my database, but didn't have the magazine or the BASIC file. I've now downloaded the scan of the magazine from the Internet Archive, typed it in (with some help from your listings on your GitHub page) and played it through to m...

Nope. Deleted all my attachments in PMs and that made no difference.

I just struck the same issue. I'll see if managing my own attachments makes any difference. However, in a personal message, it said the file extensions weren't accepted. I tried png, txt and zip.

Sorry, png, txt and zip file extensions not allowed in private messages.

GO HOUSE should take you into the dwarf house, then OPEN DOOR (with the red key) and GO DOOR to enter the red garden. As CASA is still in limbo and no one seems interested in fixing the current database problems, I'll attach my map and solution here. Oh, crap. The board attachment quota has been rea...

Contrary to what Jason said, there was nothing wrong with the original listing, except that a few lines exceeded the TRS-80's 240-character limit, so they were impossible to type in. These lines had to be split over two lines. Line 10 had to be split into lines 9 and 10 and the GOTO10 elsewhere in t...

Thanks, Alex.

Someone just pointed out to me that http://www.nostalgia8.nl/ and http://www.nostalgia8.org/ are offline. Does anyone know what's going on? I had a feeling that one of the regulars here was the owner of those domains.

This is (or was) a valuable resource for Dutch games.

Has anyone followed up on this? Does anyone care? I have a large backlog of stuff to submit, but I don't want to submit anything while I've got a lot of stuff in the queue. If it's not fixed by the New Year, I think I'll look elsewhere for a site to support. Somewhere like Moby Games. They have a hu...

Ronin Atari Frog has told me of a new discovery for 'Ronin' by David Alfozon and William Mataga. This was restored by John Hardie of the National Videogame Museum from the archives of Synapse Software programmer Bill Darrah. The game can be downloaded from www.atarimania.com/game-atari-400-800-xl-x...

Not another one. Probably a first for the Atari, though. I'm pretty sure I ported the Apple II version from Byte to the Atari in the dim, distant past, but that's probably lost to the mists of time. I've still got extensive notes on it. Interestingly, the porter chose to use the Jyym Pearson look an...

There may well be other users affected by this, but they don't know because they're not getting any email notifications. I just thought the forum was going through a quiet period and was surprised to find that I had a lot of unread forum threads that I didn't know about. Who maintains the forum? Do ...

Under Board preferences > Edit notification options, I previously had all EMAIL options selected. I have now selected all NOTIFICATIONS options, so that when I view the forum, I can at least see the recent notifications.
