Any chance to run it with the USIFAC first version + esp8266 module? I have been tried the attached software used to connect the board to the lan to share files with a PC, I have connected an ESP8266 module with the Juno firmware and I'm able to initialized the modem, connect it to my wireless network, and connect a bbs @ 2400 bps  but unluckily the software is not a real terminal so I can receive the pages in ascii mode only. I'm looking for a graphic terminal to connect the USIFAC 1 + esp8266 to the wifi network and browse the bbs' . many thanks

@Deevee   I forgot about that... you are right.
The main difference between the CPC and "the others"
is the way, the joystick is implemented...
and @dodogildo   yes.. Commando... of course...

Thank you guys !

Probably any game allowing you to redefine controls. I know Exolon can do that.
In a more modern fashion, Hypernoid Zero supports up to 3 buttons too.

Made a new Amstrad CPC conversion of one of my tracks: "Happyland Quest" - https://indiegamemusic.com/5610

Amstrad CPC preview MP3:

(Apologies for the shitty slow webhost. It's been nothing but trouble for years. Should find a new one, just don't know who - and too lazy to move everything).

I'm also curious to hear from Amstrad CPC gamedevs: How many bytes (max) do you prefer a tune to use?

Dear all,

I made a joystick this weekend. 
It has autofire via battery compartment (4.5V)
and Attiny84. 
May somebody point me to a game that supports
the second button, so I can test it?
Thanks in advance 

Steven
