Hi, I've recently set up a BBS running on my BBC Micro which has a downloads section for any other beebs that connect. I'd very much like to host a copy of this game on there. I would of course credit yourself and provide details for your itch.io page. Would this be ok?

I'd be absolutely flattered!!!! I'd love to visit too. :-)

That's great news. Hexplode also looks amazing! I'll upload it tonight when I take BeeBS offline. I've needed to use LZCompressor to make it a bit smaller for the 9600 baud download rate :) By tomorrow it should be in the BBC downloads section. The BBS is at BeeBS, I'm not sure which windows terminals support cp/m downloads but if you just wanted to look around then syncterm works fine on a pc or Commstar on a real BBC.

I only have BBS access via my C64 at present. But that will change soon! :-)

You'd be more than welcome to connect via your C64! I'd be interested to know how it handles the colour codes, as using the c64 setting on syncterm does result in some colours (but just the text).

Thank you for your help with using your amazing BBS this evening! You're a star!

No worries twas a pleasure! Your Super Star Trek is in the New Releases section in the BBC area, thanks for being the first C64 to connect!! There is a SIG Board specifically for new releases for Retro systems so any updates on your developments when you have them would be great. Thanks again!
