The wait is over! Hair Trigger has been released and it's an ABSOLUTE CORKER!!

It's also completely free to download, which feels like pure thievery.

Treat yourself this weekend. #ZXSpectrum

Fantastic! That was great reading. Shows the value of preservation of websites.

My good irl buddy Rhys has only gone and made a real life Pico-8 game. Gone Fission!

It's every bit as addictive as it looks.

Go download & play & enjoy!!

I'm really getting into puzzle games on the #zxspectrum this year. SkillTeam, Master Piece and Quadrax were all great & now this.

I've been playing it this evening and really enjoying myself.

It's based on a classic concept & well executed. I highly recommend it. 👍

@Blerkotron I've given him the heads up & he's put a phone friendly version on there now. Hopefully that'll work. 👍

@Blerkotron that's awesome feedback, thank you. I'll give Mpk a shout & see if he can make it so.

As it's the Speccy's birthday, it also means it's the anniversary of the release of this gem.

Rival Gangs EXT is a hugely impressive GTA demake style game.

I was proud to have a little reflected glory, as I put together the loading screen.

@samster

Solomon's Key is excellent! It has different mechanics but is just as puzzley & fun.

Nate & I spent hours playing Quadrax this afternoon. It's a Slovakian puzzle game on the #ZXSpectrum from 1995 that's recently had an English translation & it's AMAZING!

He's not really been into Speccy games recently but he loved this. We both did.

I've just been finishing off my interview for Freeze ZX & saw a very brief preview peek of the mag & it looks utterly stunning. Speccy fans seriously need this in their life.

Be one of the cool kids & get your order in from the very first issue, you won't regret it. 🌈

Ok I've posted about this a LOT!

Under normal circumstances I'd be excited about a new #ZXSpectrum magazine being released, but to have our game featured is pretty special.

Pre order available now. 😃

@einar If it is a prank then I've wasted a lot of time giving them an interview 😂

(It's definitely not a prank. 😃)

Utterly thrilling!

Well take a wee look at this.

Very excited to have a new Speccy mag on the scene, especially from the creator of the awesome Freeze64.

Absolutely bowled over at the potential of our game being the cover star of the first issue! 😱
