I have a new thing to show, GCN Matrix.

GCN Matrix is a personal fork of a game program called “Matrix”.

“Matrix” is a “Type-in” program written in the Sinclair 8K BASIC programming language designed to run on Sinclair ZX81 systems that have 16KB of memory. It was created by T.J. Marrow/James Marrow and it’s listing was published in the June 1983 issue of “Sinclair Programs” magazine by ECC Publications of London in 1983 – ISSN No. 0263-0265.

I have one implementation of GCN Matrix to show at this point.

The purpose of the initial implementation is to predominantly use the Sinclair 8K BASIC programming language to develop versions of GCN Matrix – Type A that will run on hardware and software that is compatible with Sinclair ZX81 systems that have 16KB of memory and any textual communication shall be in the language “British English”.

The initial version, version 1 consists of a fork from the original program with a number of changes.

Site launched

To begin with the only things I have to show are a few results of my software development activities.

Currently the only things I have to show are one implementation of “GCN Scalar”, two collections of additional content for “GCN Scalar” and three implementations of “GCN Ghost Chase”.

GCN Scalar

GCN Scalar is my own personal fork of a game program called “Scaler”.

“Scalar” was developed by Milan Babuskov and is released under the GNU GPL-2.0-or-later (gnu public license). I obtained the program from the web-based project hosting service provider SourceForge (https://sourceforge.net/ at the time of writing).

The implementation I have to show is developed to run on versions of the Microsoft Windows operating system that run on 32bit x86 compatible system architecture and developed predominantly using the C and/or C++ programming languages along with the Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) 1.2.X API.

GCN Ghost Chase

GCN Ghost Chase is my own personal fork of a game program call “Ghost Chase”.

“Ghost Chase” is an old “type-in” program written in the Sinclair 48 BASIC programming language designed to run on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum range of computers. It was created by Neal Cavalier—Smith and Graham White and it’s listing was published in the book “49 Explosive Games for the ZX Spectrum” which was authored by Tim Hartnell and published by Interface Publications in 1983 – ISBN 0 907563 53 8.

I have three implementations of GCN Ghost Chase to show at this point.

The first implementation is developed to run on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum range of computers and developed predominantly using the Sinclair 48 BASIC programming language.

The second implementation is developed to run on Nintendo Game Boy Color systems and developed predominantly using GB Studio 4.x.

The third implementation is developed to run on Nintendo Game Boy systems and also developed predominantly using GB Studio 4.x.

Welcome to my website. I like doing activities and the purpose of this website is to have somewhere to show off some of the results of some of the activities that I do.

I am currently referring to the results of my activities as “Things”. You can find the “Things” by using the link “Find Things”.

I plan to announce changes and updates in the log section.
