Isn't this the best place to discuss CPC games? I'm certainly happier discussing stuff here than on Sinister Facebook.

yes that is the Olivers original game disks and tapes with original game source code

its theirs not mine they just sent me pics of it if you look at the Olivers you tube vids they show that they have kept their original work and code on disks and tapes for their other games as well

im not one to ask for much im just glad i could see the pics they sent me how cool is that - did u see the original title was called super GP sim ?

do people want me to ask if i can get a copy of the source code disk? i would feel strange for asking though i can tell u.

When I asked them they said the source code for their games was due to be archived by the National Computer Museum.

Nice looking at the map drawings in particular, always enjoyed top down racers.

As far as i am aware i believe that everything in the pics is their original game work and yes that would be a printout of the original source code.   From what i saw on one of their youtube vids those print outs can be quite long.
