Considering updating Specymania GB from 2013 until now.... :shock: :? :roll:
That is a HUGE task!.

The WOS wesite hasn't been updated since 2013 either.
so sourcing all the homebrew stuff you will need to visit all the Czech and Russian sites. :wink:

I do have a little something (Russian ZX related) which has been on the back burner for a few years.

Now we are all isolating...
it's time to "get gamebase done". :P

I will release the Beta GB very soon.

and http://www.indieretronews.com site for ZX Spectrum games news is good too.


I'm waiting for updates for a few years for ZX and CPC 464/664/6128. I don't touch these because of not enough knowledge. Only updating Atari 800 Gamebase from time to time - when new games arrives. We need GB SpeccyMania updated, PLEASE :P
I love Gamebase's creators and compilations

Well ... I was thinking about focusing on this website:
https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/
From 2013 onwards there are about 700 new games on it.
Perhaps most of them coincide with those on Russian and Czech websites. Send me any link to them and I will consider the magnitude of the matter... :lol:
At the moment I have started to download all the that spectrum computing web stuff. I have completed 2013 and I have almost finished 2014. By the way, any help with it will be welcome.

Yes, that is a very good site for info on the latest releases.
Download links are sometimes removed under copyright law. :(
but googling will find most of them. :P

There are (possibly) thousands of Arcade Game Designer games out there.
but only a few hundred are of any real quality.
I have a lot of those on my drive. ;)

this will help with info for other RU / CZ homebrew stuff...

Added about a thousand more games and many extras not present in previous release (maps, adverts, covers, music, soundtracks, RZX, ULA+ versions, Kempston Mouse compatibles)... Summarizing, from 2 GB of v4 to 6 GB for now.

Now I'm linking latest games and manuals/instructions.

Well, Speccymania y going on...

This is a pretty good site too, although it doesn't give you any info on the games, you can DL them, and there's even a built-in emulator where you can play them as well http://zxspectrum.xyz/
