Due to the overwhelming response to the
Mag by members I have had to shrink the
programmers return somewhat this month.
However I will publish ALL programmers
return material to date next month. I
will soon be compiling a "Programmers
Return" book which will contain all the
comments recieved from Issue 1. If you
have submitted programs to this library
and would like a copy then please say
so and I shall arrange this for you.
NEW BATTLESHIPS(Issue8) 1K1=
Although the gameplay was basic, the
addictiveness was high. Me and my 14-
year-old brother started fighting
because of the game.
Graphics 5/10, Sound 5, Playability 8, *

Addictive 10, Overall 7.
NEW CELLS AND SERPENTS(8) 1K1=
Very clever-if you walk into a wall many
times you lose points, stupid me!
Playability 7, Addictiveness 7, Overall
7. No graphics or sound.
KEYBOARD PROGRAM(8) 1K1=
After connecting my BBC Micro to some
car speakers I found lying about, my
deaf little sister could feel the
different vibrations from them as she
pressed the musical keys. Thank you.
Graphics 6, Sound 9, Overall 9.

NEW BATTLESHIPS(8) 2J3=
Ok but still has the slight Master
incompatibility that I previously
mentioned.
FIGHTER COMMAND(8) 2J3=
Looks VERY good-initial comments are
that it appears complicated to play, but
just the sort of game I will enjoy.
STOPPING DISTANCES(8) 2J3=
Good idea-gives me an idea for extending
it to include a general test related to
learners.
ADFS BACKUP(6) 4DO=
Now this is useful! Used to backup all
my stuff nearly! Worked fine I thought *

but would be better if it worked with
hard disc.
Sorry members, but I can't fit any more
onto the magazine. If you are a
programmer and have had your program on
any of the issues 4-8 then you may have
all your reviews by post if required. I
still have plenty to publish but if you
would like advance copies please either
phone or write.
