Hi, I’m contacting you because I want to make a homebrew tribute USB. I’m collecting as many content creators as possible. I also want to include a profile for each one, with a few details, such as their logo, avatar, name, work completed, projects, etc., so you can see who’s behind their creations.
That profile, along with any material you allow me to upload, will be placed on a USB drive. This will act as a database of creators and their creations, and will be updated as I connect with new people.
The USB I’m thinking of creating will be one of those rubber-type USBs, shaped like a Spectrum computer, something that looks really nice. The idea is that those who contribute material, and if they want to buy one or more, will get it at cost price, and those who just want to buy one, it will cost a little more.
The idea is that if enough are sold, enough to recover the initial investment, the profits that the rest of the USBs could generate will be distributed among the people who have contributed material to the project, via transfer, PayPal, or however possible, even if possible, that the USB will be free. Obviously, you can buy more than one, but only one of them can be free.
It’s not necessary or mandatory to buy the USB, only if you like it or want it.
If you’re interested in this project, you can contact me at this email, flopping@gmail.com. If you have any questions or concerns, let me know and I’ll answer them. Do you think the idea is a good one? Would you like to participate in the project? Let me know. Best regards.
Nice modification done. I quite enjoyed the music.
But the original 48k game has not been altered in any way, no code optimization, no faster gameplay on real spectrum, correct? Just curious, would it be possible to increase the steering sensitivity (faster left to right and right to left motion of the bike)?
TY....I am glad that you enjoyed....Well lately I played SHO on Speccy and I also loved Amiga version especially the soundtrack so I tried to combine these 2 things and I really like it so I get an idea to do some "easy" modding via emulator and using Aimp program to reproduce the music that I previously edited to pack all of that into a package as a single game that you can started on just 1 simple click and then when I tested and everything worked great I decided to share this with the rest of the community....Anyway considering the Original version I didn't change anything when it comes to the gameplay only things that I mod is that I separated the game in 4 parts/RaceTracks for easier loading on yours 48kb and also I did the new Loading screen and those few others extra pictures....unfortunately to speed up the game on original Speccy it will be extremely difficult not only because of coding but also because you will need to sacrifice something most likely in graphics and then game will look probably much uglier....
