Spectrum games that could be made, for modern times.

Ken Bruce's Popmaster. I could see Domark putting this out. And I'd play it like mad, before discarding it four hours in because the questions would repeat.
Harry Potter, a definite Ocean license if ever I saw one. Loads of sequels.
Annoyed Avians versus Green Pigs, another totally original delight from Harry S Price.
Top Gear. Another Domark tie-in, where you can pick between Clarkson/Hammond/May in attempt to be the first to reach a destination in a ridiculous/cool mode of transport. Albeit it'd be quickly rushed onto a budget release now that they've buggered off to Amazon Video.
ISIS Obliteration Don't tell me US Gold or Microprose wouldn't do this.
Peppa Pig And it would be annoyingly good, from Alternative Software.
Total Disharmony In The UK, a text adventure about life in Cameron's Britain, written by the Sleaford Mods.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Behave.

Horace goes twerking
How to be a complete douche nozzle
Shovel Knight 3D: written in Freescape.
Rolferoo: A bit like Kosmic Kanga, but in this you have to shoot jiz at secretaries, and office interns, bonus points for drinking your own p*ss, and blinding the BBC boss so he can't see your filthy shenanigans.

The President Trumps - in a spin-off from Abe's Exoddus a grown-up Don-the-Nipper (Jack's second cousin) must guide exploding clouds of flatulence around Washington to maim or discredit his political opponents in contrived and amusing fart-related catastrophes.
Freez'Bees II - Climate Change Edition - The penguin is basically just stung to death as there's no longer any ice between him and the bees.
Frogger 2020 - you hop around trying to cross a busy road and crocodile-infested river to your home. Instead of getting faster each round, the game gets slower as a foreign fungus introduced into the habitat gradually debilitates the frog's motor neurone functions.
Tans-Man - drive a car around the USA trying to collect enough prize money for gender-reassignment surgery. The car starts off blue but turns magenta after dark.

Oh Super Trolley - I bet that's one game designer who doesn't want to do a Retro Gamer interview...

TV-host-noncery aside, he wouldn't do an interview because the game is so entirely f**king s**t.

Ha. I can already feel the CGC entry starting to take shape. Beepy national anthem, lots of magenta, and a pixelated Michael Gove scurrying around after Queen Lizzie tugging his forelock and picking up corgi sh!t.
Oh my ...'effing' lordy McJeebus...
Let's just say I'd have said c*nt a lot :p
Guffaw with delight as down-on-their-luck ex-speccy icons watch rzx's of speccy classics! Cringe as 'platonic' flatmates Miner Willy and Technician Ted rip into Monty Mole. Sob along as the Week family get teary during Bugaboo's 'emotional' escape from the cave.
More than a game! Like having a television and a sofa and people talking in your own front room! Absolutely Brilliant! - David Darling
Aren't we just watching people watching people? Where's the game? Whhhhyyy? - Everyone else

You could probably add Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom and Rasta Mouse as well, they have Alternative Software licence written all over them.
Downton Abbey written in the style of The Archers where you are the script writer trying to trying to keep viewing figures up.
There have been a number of TV programs and films which would have been turned into platform beat-em-ups/shoot-em-ups by Ocean.
Come to think of it, half of those points apply to Jetset Willy! The Spectrum truly was ahead of it's time.
ha ha very good. You forgot the in game selling, which is hidden just enough that toddlers can buy what they like on their parent's account, the coins you collect to buy further levels and don't forgot to base it on the simple 5 genres the games market only ever seem to use these day.
