Still Alive on the ZX Spectrum +2 (8-bit 1980s computer), General Instrument AY-3-8910 sound chip

Still Alive song from Portal 100% coded and saved over a few months (not much of which was actually working on this) on a real ZX Spectrum in BASIC. Scores obtained from multiple sources. Recorded via Audacity from the real Spectrum, so the quality is poor and the sound chip has a few random glitches muffling the audio. Planning on making a BBC Micro version some time in the future...

I was half expecting a series of BEEPs.

Thumbs up for making use of +3 BASIC's PLAY command

Wow. This is actually very nice^^

But I have to say, that I like the SID from C65 more than the AY from Spectrum and CPC.
