"The Invasion" already started....

Hi folks,

Last year i only made one post and hopefully this year, it will be more.

Lee Romanow has made a brand new homebrew for the RCA Studio II called "The Invasion" and release it on January 1st, 2019 (that's what i call starting great the New Year!) Not only you can play it in black & white but also in color either in Emma02 (https://www.emma02.hobby-site.com/) or on a European clone (Soundic Victory, Conic M-1200, Mustang 9016, etc...just to name a few) as well ...err...if you have a RCA Studio II Multicart or made a (ROM or RAM) cartridge yourself.

Here's some screen shots made with Emma02:







So many thanks to Lee Romanow for this great homebrew!

But that's not all, he also released another homebrew on December 12, 2017 called "Fifteen Puzzle" to celebrate the 40th anniversary (1977-2017) of the RCA Studio II, here's some screen shots:



And again, thanks so much for another great game Lee! ;)

And finally, Lee also made in ROM files some of the demos included in the Programming Manual for Studio III on pages 10 to 12, like these:

* move1.st2 (moving a spot around the screen)
* move2.st2 (moving a spot around the screen, continuous, soundless spot motion)
* move3.st2 (moving a spot around the screen, continuous, soundless spot motion, no blinking)
* tone.st2 (generate key selected tone sequence)
* random1.st2 (randomly moving spot)
* showkey.st2 (showing a keyboard digit)
* random2.st2 (showing random bytes)

And as for where to download these rom files, i have just made a page on Archive.org to download the homebrews mentioned here plus also all the others brews made by Lee and Paul Robson. You can get them here: RCA Studio II homebrews (archive.org)

So have fun!! =)
