Also called [[GUI]]Mostly with a "mouse pointer" and menues.
Also called GUI
This wasn't well used on Amstrad CPC :
*lack of Mouse.
*Expensive on [[Z80|CPU]] ressources.
But many games This wasn't so well used such an interface, but because it was a Joystick instead of a proper mouse...it sucked and was often a source of slow gameplay (See on [[Hero QuestAmstrad CPC]]).:
*lack of Mouse :few models existed, not alway compatibles.
*Expensive on [[Z80|CPU]] ressources or speed : the mouse Pointer is like a sprite and using the Joystick to move it is painfully slow and lack precision.
As a result, Keyboards short cut may be more appropriate on an Amstrad CPC.
YetBut some games used such an interface, interesting stuff were made on but because it was a Joystick instead of a proper mouse... it sucked and was often a source of slow gameplay (See [[Hero Quest]]). ==GUI Amstrad CPC Games==*[[Pirates!|Sid Meyer's Pirates!]] :Joystick pseudo Mouse pointer and menues.*[[Hero Quest]] : a Populous like interface. ==GUI Amstrad CPC OS==
