    At one point Simon Goodwin was talking to Tim gilberts and it hit me that this was two of the people that got me into making games as a teenager. I didn't speak to either (terrible social anxiety) but just seeing them still getting a kick out making things more accessible made my day.

      Oh wow! That's awesome! It's a pity that you didn't get to speak to Tim because he's an affable chap and would have loved to have heard this! I'll let him know for you. 👍

    Meeting the team behind the Spectrum Next was just fabulous. Amazing stalls, access to retro indie developers and brilliant panel talks. Plus seeing a 45-minute preview of The Rubber Keyed Wonder film by the Caulfields was epic.

      Couldn’t agree more! An amazing day and the ability to talk to those people that created the games we know and love is just fab!

With the different various outputs you had a composite the scart lead output and the one in the middle was the HDMI , the challenge was could people tell the difference

    I didn't realise Malcolm Evans was there. Apparently he was ok with my remake of Trashman. Would have been good to see him in person. I never go to these things though due to my crippling social anxiety. LOL. It's a nice thought tho.

      I left just before Malcolm gave his talk (I couldn't hear the talks even with hearing aids turned up unfortunately) or i'd have collared him for a quote Caff :)
