Dry information, isn't it?
And as for SPECCY, from 1982 to 1992
I didn’t touch it and didn’t have any
the slightest idea of its existence. O
computers, however, for this
I managed to find out the period of time (from a friend
PC appeared, which one - I don’t even remember, c
monochrome display (this fact
I remember), and, naturally, I went to
him to use games). Parents, of course
were informed about the delights
computer toys :*) ...
Early morning December 12, 1992.
Sleep left me as I lay in bed.
I opened my eyes lazily: I don’t want to go
in a wood carving circle! Peep him for
leg! Suddenly he comes into the room
a solemn procession consisting of
members of my family. Yes, today is the day
birth! Then they handed me a box.
- What is this!? - I asked.
- Computer. "Companion".
- !?.. Why in such a small
box? I saw a friend's computer
big, how did he get here?... Right here
only the keyboard...
- No, this is a computer.
- :)
- Get dressed, go to a club, go to
school... And then you study it.
- >:-E 'ny circle...
Then there were the standard problems c
connection to TV, first attempts at full
Lamera load the game.
Grand Prix Situlator 2:How to launch
game? Press "1". On the screen: "Driver 1 -
COMPUTER? (U/N)"
- Yes, yes, I play on the computer!
Press "2"... Press "3"...
- How to launch it? Why is she stupid
asks questions? Let's go through all the buttons.
O-o-o!!! Launched! The cars are moving!!! Where
joystick? Yeah, here it is, let's taxi now...
:-O They are already driving while the joystick was looking...
Well, never mind, let's take control!
How cool I drive! Onlythe cars are bad
obey, a lot of effort is spent on pressure
to the joystick! Right now I’ll drive through the “bag” (so
a puddle of oil on the road was dubbed.. This
due to inexperience...). Damn, it didn't work out.
Well, on the next lap... No, damn it!... :)
These were the first impressions o
ZX-SPECTRUM. It was in the second grade.
I remember once before going to
school, I was going to look at a curiosity
almost the entire male half of the class... Even
it became difficult to breathe in the room:) Everyone
I didn't manage to play it. Since
It takes a long time to load a new game from the tape, I
unanimously decided not to “reset”
DIZZY-4... Hmm.. In general, except for me and
no one played close friends. :( :( :)
Year, it seems, 1995. Speccy already had
competitor who persistently selected
gamers. "DENDY, DENDY, everyone is playing."
Yes, DENDY seduced me then too
gamer soul. Beautiful (as then
it seemed) graphics, colors not"merge"
dynamic games, music during the game!!!
Isn't this a gamer's paradise? And "prefix"
was purchased. "Companion" was forgotten, hands
at first clumsily, and then mactepcu "crumpled"
what was called a “joystick” (where is the
stick, interesting). But time passed, games
"went through" one after another,
standard cheats were detected,
guessed password's. But you can’t do everything
time to game! Increasingly out of the box
"get" SPECCY. A desire appeared
make the game yourself. Development has begun
BASIC. We are growing up, though. DENDY
gradually died.
1997, 1998 - opening of LASER BASIC.
This was the limit of what was possible
reach at ZX-SPECTRUM 48k when loading from
tape recorder. Assembler was rejected by me
due to lack of literature (for me,
of course). Intellectual
(from the user's point of view) growth, only here
Problems gradually began to arise
purchasing “good” software. That
I was not happy with what was on sale, or
there was no sale itself.
For some time I visited the "computer
circle". There stood ZX-SPECTRUM 48k c
drives (!) and there was a “newer” one
software than on cassettes. But we visited the circle
mostly young gamers who don't have
computers at home, and the teacher has almost none
knewBASIC.Everything that I managed to learn there -
TR-DOS at the user level. From bitter experience
I recognized (and remembered for the rest of my life) the team
FORMAT (I even thought of writing in quotes
a couple of characters). This is how one of the c drives died
games. Some others turned out to be
shabby zero track:( ... Visit
This "mug" has stopped.
BFebruary 1998I moved to study at
another school. Summer 1998 after quite
abundant programming in LASER BASIC
a terrible question arose before me: a
Why am I blabbering here, if
1. Nobody needs my software.
2. I am not familiar with any spektrumist.
3. It’s unlikely that I can improve the quality
your programs without going over
assembler, but I don’t know how to write in it.
4. Difficult to get software.
5. Yes, and "Kompash" is already buggy.
6. Or maybe SPECTRUM died?
The conclusion was simple: it's time to blame PC.
Even purchased several numbers PC'nogo
gaming magazine GAME.EXE. True,
purchase рС (no, it's better PC, laziness
switching the font) is a trivial matter,
expensive. If NO MONEY, then there is no PC.
However, sometimes things happen in the world
fateful accidents (or not
accidents, or something else?). Autumn-winter
1998 in that very new class, in the new
Spektrumist was discovered at school!!! This
the moment represents the beginning
The resurrection of the Spectrum in my mind.
There are still people who care about ZX.
ZX-VIRUS (as it used to be called PIXel)
had at home ZX-Spectrut 128k (Peptadop 128,
as it turned out later). Ha Speccy 128 was
It would be very interesting to take a look. Such a case
introduced himself. ZX-VIRUS showed me
several demos... with music (not
beep'erska!), playing simultaneously with
action on the screen, and what kind of action
action!!! The chair I sat on
during the viewing, he knew his business well,
and I didn’t fall from it, although the shock wave
emanating from Peptadop'awas very strong.
it was thunder. It was a thousand blows
lightning. It was a storm of feelings. It was
COOL!!! A vague idea was born that
Speccy is still alive,and remains mainly on
fans of himself. Indigenous, spontaneous
change in consciousness in relation to
Spectrum. Its consequence and completion
THE TRANSITION was the purchase instead of PC (money
never accumulated) computer Profi
Concurrent 512k(February 1999), and later -
and monitor"ELECTRONICS - 201"(summer 1999).
The beginning of studying assembler has taken place
bealso in the summer of 1999,as a result of which
game G. P. SIM 2was finally broken, a
The time counter is disabled. That's how it was
completed the game, in which throughout
6 local players have been “cutting” for years.
Joining the group VishSoft,
which was later renamed Brutal
Creators took place in January 2000.
I can’t analyze this fact yet
due to the fact that this happened completely
recently, and there are no special consequences
had :)
Well, that's all, in a nutshell. :-)
P.S. It was very nice to have a monologue with
to those who read all this.
