Thank you for playing!

Thank you very much!

Done!

Ok. Please, send me a contact email so I can send you the text.

I see your magazine is in Spanish. Should I write the report in English o prefieres que lo haga en castellano?

Sure. But please, read the Development Log first. I have already written some insights of the development process. Maybe it is just what you need. If you need deeper information, please let me know and I will write an aditional report.

No. The sound is 1-bit and due to its nature, it can't be reduced. It's a technical limitation. If you hear it too high, it means your TV volume is too high. Maybe you think the 1-bit sounds are too high because I chose to use a very low volume for the background music.

What I can do is to raise the BGM music volume, so you can lower the whole audio mix.

Excellent... but please, first fix all the drawbacks of the original Qasarbeach!!! (especially a decent input/output support, VST/AU and a good graphic engine that do not create so many artifacts in some screen resolutions).

Hi,

any chance of getting an ARM-based version for Windows? Intel achitecture has an uncertain future and everything seems to be ARM-oriented now.  It would be great to have also an ARM-based Linux version (many people, including me, want to build a stand-alone CMI clone with a ARM-based computer such as the RPI... check the MiniDexed project).

I think it's time to bury the old Windows PC and move towards other modern paradigms.

MSX1, written in MSX-BASIC

How can I select what audio interface to use? I haven't found any Audio setup menu (only for MIDI devices but not audio interfaces).

Is ASIO supported?

Thank you.

Great news! Thank you for the good work.

Excellent job!  Has been the external source sampling issue already fixed in 1.31?  Thank you.

Hi,

I can't sample properly from the external audio input. Recorded audio sounds choppy.

Playback of loaded samples or internally recorded sound works perfectly, though.

Can you try an alternative loader to SofaRun? (pure flashrom burning is the preferred method to guarantee compatibility)

I've created a 32KB ROM version of the game. Check your Facebook account ;-)  Please feel free to make it available for download if you find it useful.

Thank you again for such a funny game!!

I've just got it and I love it! It's just the kind of games I love and a perfect example of what I would make if I could create a game.

It has some bugs that prevent it from working on some MSX machines, though (e.g. Sony HB-55P plus RAM expansion, Toshiba HX-20 and others).

Releasing a .ROM version would be very nice too for those that don't have a disk drive but do have a flashcart.

It seems that the ROM version has been created with a DSK conversion tool. Maybe the dsk2rom tool has a bug?

I think I've found what's causing the issue. Both flash loading tools and OpenMSX are reporting the ROM as using a Konami megaROM mapper, what is wrong.
It works fine if you manually set the mapper type to ASCII/8KB.

By the way, I suggest you to crop the ROM files to an actual ROM size (usually power of two numbers, 1048576 would be fine) and pad the empty area with 0xFF. A real ROM chip cannot have a size such as '753664' bytes. It might cause some issues on some emulators/flash cartridges/ROM launching tools.

Hi,

congratulations for the good job!
By the way, the MSX2+ ROM version doesn't seem to work on my MSXTurboR. 

What should I do to make it work properly?
Thank you in advance.
