Hi Sarah,
I hope you’re doing okay. Compliments on your ZX Next project, it sounds really exciting! I just wanted to check gently: did my messages through Messenger and the website form reach you? No rush at all, I just wanted to make sure they went through.

Take care,
Davide

It definitely needs and update and your graphics are gorgeous as always. I’m more of a fan of the sequel actually, that one is on my shortlist

It's indeed very faithful! Only a few bugs and other minor issues let it down slightly gameplay-wise.

Cool! I too loved that game, too bad nobody acquired the license to make home computer versions

Kick & Run? Did you make sprites for a possible Mexico ‘86 conversion ?

Thanks, that is exactly how it is. In trying to replicate the look and feel of the arcade, the color choices and their placement come first, then the finer details

More Toki is always great news! What machine are you coding it for?
