RIGHT THEN, WHAT IS CGD?
CGD is the Classic Games Designer. It's a utility that runs on the ZX Spectrum with which you can design ZX Spectrum games with that early 1980's old school feel, and play about with ideas for other projects. It was originally going to be the Crap Games Designer but despite its shortcomings, CGD is capable of making good games and interesting ideas. I'd already put a lot of work into it, and after a suggestion it seemed 'Classic' was a better title (it does of course have to be a 3 letter acronym).
WHERE DO I GET IT?
Download CGD version 1.3
Download instructions
Download source code
WHAT NEXT?
Have a quick look at the other games, and have a bash (in conjunction with the instructions). CGD is meant to be fairly easy to pick up and use. If there's anything you're not sure of then please drop me an email, I'm happy to help with pretty much anything.
I'VE MADE MY GAME, NOW WHAT?!
Make it available to the world! I'd like to host it on this site (as long as it's not a complete howler), and hopefully various other Spectrum sites like the World of Spectrum. Also give me any feedback on the designer, perhaps I can incorporate new ideas into future updates.
