Hi, I’m contacting you because I want to make a homebrew tribute USB. I’m collecting as many content creators as possible. I also want to include a profile for each one, with a few details, such as their logo, avatar, name, work completed, projects, etc., so you can see who’s behind their creations.
That profile, along with any material you allow me to upload, will be placed on a USB drive. This will act as a database of creators and their creations, and will be updated as I connect with new people.
The USB I’m thinking of creating will be one of those rubber-type USBs, shaped like a Spectrum computer, something that looks really nice. The idea is that those who contribute material, and if they want to buy one or more, will get it at cost price, and those who just want to buy one, it will cost a little more.
The idea is that if enough are sold, enough to recover the initial investment, the profits that the rest of the USBs could generate will be distributed among the people who have contributed material to the project, via transfer, PayPal, or however possible, even if possible, that the USB will be free. Obviously, you can buy more than one, but only one of them can be free.
It’s not necessary or mandatory to buy the USB, only if you like it or want it.
If you’re interested in this project, you can contact me at this email, flopping@gmail.com. If you have any questions or concerns, let me know and I’ll answer them. Do you think the idea is a good one? Would you like to participate in the project? Let me know. Best regards.
Juan.
Your USB idea sounds great, please feel free to include Nexions and Get Gun, Shoot! in the compilation. I'd also like to buy the USB stick when you are done. (Also sent you this message via email)
Ok, let’s continue via email.

TJWhat a great video, thanks again TJ, very kind of you to take the time and give my game such a nice review.
my pleasure. looking forward to your next Next game. lol
Doesn't work in any of the emulators. Can this be fixed ??
Sorry about that, the game requires BASIC v2.08 and the current Next emulator is at v2.06. Hopefully the emulator will be updated to support BASIC 2.08
Super game. It plays really well and is very slick.
A fine achievement!!
Thanks very much Rob, that's very kind. Glad you like the game. Best regards Mark
No trouble. It’s inspiring.
