Deathchase was 16K, definitely. I think it's unbeatable. And an unknown speecy 16K-"Ed-On", a rip-off of that "Dodge-Em" atari game is a fave. Seems simple at first, but has great playability, despite the crap review in Crash. -

Jet Pac, although many happy hours were spent with my mum playing a version of Hangman that had to have been a 16K-or-under game. -

Stupid bugs in gamesDid any one discover bugs in any game. I found out in Football Manager 1 you can sell all your players and still play matches (and even win them)
Steve - yes, I'd be interested. On a general point, I think it might be a nice idea if WoS and/or the TZX Vault kept a separate archive of bug-fixed or otherwise enhanced games. And my apologies to Martijn & Steve if you do already, and I missed it! -

BTW, by 'enhanced' I mean such things as extra joystick options, better keyboard layout, etc. Not infinite lives or other cheat POKEs, which are usually simple, single POKEs. -

48K. Would never had games like Batman, Head over heels, Level 9 adventures, Robocop, Trapdoor, etc otherwise would we? All brilliant games! All for the 48K! Besides, 48K could run 16K games anyway, so there! -
