@haitchfive<p>Aand of course, using the old system ROM character set that dates back to the Sinclair ZX80 is also a strong statement in favour of Sinclairicity, and a very definite form of 8-bit culture, firmly grounded in its Spectrumness, instead of adopting the graphic style of 16-bit machines that succeeded it.</p><p>Whereas I understand that clearly many devs managed to succeed in the 16-bit era on various other platforms, that's not the milieu of the vast majority of ZX Spectrum die hard fanatics, such as myself, who remain anchored somewhere before the availability of 4096 colours was a common fact of life.</p><p>My takeaway is that ZX Spectrum culture doesn't want to grow up. Not even into 16-bit world. More is not necessarily better. Better is better.</p><p>("better" defined as: sticking to the essence of the ethics, aesthetics, and general aspects that made ZX Spectrum culture unique)</p><p>[2/2]<br><a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/ZXSpectrum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ZXSpectrum</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Speccy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Speccy</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Spectrum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Spectrum</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/ZXSpectrumNext" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ZXSpectrumNext</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/SpectrumNext" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SpectrumNext</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/retrogaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retrogaming</span></a></p>

Tom Forsyth<p>Just got a lovely piece of 1982 delivered from <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/ZXSpectrumNext" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ZXSpectrumNext</span></a>. Includes a 320-page manual that tells you how to program the thing, because the internet won't exist for another 15 years or so - a lovely touch!</p>
