Changes

I am a big Amstrad fan having got my first Amstrad (a [[CPC6128]]) when I was 11 years old. (back in 1986)My father bought me a [[Firmware ]] guide and in addition he had access to datasheets, and this expanded my knowledge of the cpc quickly.

In the beginning I spent a lot of time writing a sprite editor (now lost), converting games from tape to disc for friends at school, and converting pictures and music from the atari st[[Atari ST]].

To convert music from Atari ST, I had written a disc reader in assembler which could read Atari ST discs, or anything with MSDOS format, and a [[68000 ]] dissassembler in [[BASIC]]. I would then convert the 68000 to [[Z80 ]] asm by hand.

During this time I developed a Amstrad emulator for the Amiga called [[A-CPC]], which later became [[Arnold ]] (for PC and Linux) and in addition

In the past few years I have finally reached my long term dream of writing released the following games and demos:* [[Stranded]] for CPC and C64 (a game conversion from Spectrum)* [[Sudoku]] for CPC, Spectrum and PCW* [[Balloonacy]] for CPC (a conversion from C64)* [[Blue Angel 69]] for CPC, CPC+ and GX4000* [[Mayhem]] for CPC and PCW (a conversion from Spectrum) - See the CPC after previously concentrating on unreleased tools/readme and PCW readme for lots of details of why and choices made.* [[Hexavirus]] for CPC, CPC+ and GX4000; including the first game with a Speedlock K7 1985 loader since 1992!* [[On the Spot]] for a web based set top box* A musical loader used in [[Pinball Dreams]]* various tech demos, 4096 colours etc.* Music conversions from ST: Big Alec, Mad Max, Count Zero, LAP

Demos of these games can be downloaded at my website, or bought through Cronosoft.Unreleased:* I have another game already in developmentworked on an unofficial conversion of version of Repton 3 * Many more.Maybe you will see them soon?

I plan to continue being active in am looking for a demo I made around 1990 which I shared with [[Warlock]]. The demo has 3 blue balls which grow and shrink depending on the volume of the played music (I think it was Warhawk music). At the same time the tape motor relay turned on/off and the disc motor flashed. It was a simple demo but I would love to see it again. If you find it send it to www.cpc-power.com!!!   My websites:* http://cpcfreak.cpc-live.com/ (Some of my games)* http://www.cpctech.org.uk/ (Technical information, CPCWiki is more up to date) [[Category:CPC scene for as long as possible.members]][[Category:Active CPC Game Developers]][[Category:Sceners]]
