@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

What is the game play like in the cpc games?

I admit I don't really know! They're both text adventures, which I'm not really a fan of. I only own them because I can add them to my Fighting Fantasy collection.
