I wear my old jeans at home but the front of the legs are ripped to shreds. I have another pair exactly the same. The back half of the legs is still good so I could make one good pair out of two pairs by sewing the two back halfs of the other pair to the fronts to make a new pair of legs.

I spent a few hours trying to figure out how to get my Korg Volca Sample 2 working with MIDI in multi channel mode and having no joy. Now the batteries need recharging.

Here’s another nice SAA tune; this time playing on my 48K Spectrum (with Microdrive and Interface 1) using @samcoupe.com’s SAA1099P interface and bus adapter. I’m using a new faster playback routine by Anton Javorček here, it sounds great! 🔊🔊

I have been banned from Etsy!
After 2 years, over 700 5 star reviews, Etsy has decided that the items I sell are prohibited. This includes all the hand-made chiptune gear, and all homebrew games.
So… I built my own store instead!

For a bit of Space Invaders theory:
Enemy missiles are handled in a round-robin manner at a mid-screen interrupt. There are 3 slots for missiles, each dedicated to a specific type. The first, the "rolling shot", targets the player. The second and third type are based on an offset index.
