In 2009 somebody typed (or scanned) SUPER STAR TREK from David Ahl´s book. (founder of CREATIVE COMPUTING) I was going to type that game from that book and publish it here back then, but somebody was faster than I.

This seems to be for MSX2 and upwards only. It instantly gave me "Invalid parameter" when game started.

Yes, I knew that even 40 column mode on MSX1 is not enough for Star Trek game. But maybe you could easily change PRINTs to support 40 column SCREEN 0. Smile

Here is Super Star Trek: Smile

Cool thanks for the conversion, will play test and let you know.

This one brings back memories, I made a derivative for the BBC Micro based on super star trek, but with an open galaxy i.e. sector via just showed a window of the entire array. Constant on screen display, enemies where smarter, moved around and attacked star bases etc. Ran it out of memory so was given permission to compile it on the mainframe - not sure if is still out there.

Will enjoy giving these a go - thanks!

The adapted TRS80 BASIC code can be seen at the HTML source code of the page. Any volunteers out there?

Nice! I've already seen your recently ported maze generators. I should adapt a good one to assembler to code SNAIL MAZE II - BIOMAZE HAZZARD! Big smile
