  • So how much programming experience do you need to create a Spectrum Game?Hi all i was just mucking about with that old program "Game Designer" and i was wondering how difficult it is to write a new Spectrum game?

    If by programming you mean hands-on Basic, Assembler and the like, next to none, yes. I am making an adventure in PAW and you just have to understand how the program works. :)
