Actually since 2.6 we have brought in much of the "community fan version" features into the official main branch of Megazeux. Since Megazeux was released under GPL, it has been the ability of the community to maintain and update megazeux. Many very talented members have contributed a great deal to keep Megazeux running on modern hardware, without their help Megazeux would have died off with the popularity of Windows XP. In fact it's now highly portable and could be run on just about anything.
Well, robotic is more powerful than you think. This is completely made with a legal version of MZX - however, Logicow's games are all extremely esoteric and seem not to be using MZX at all. Most games released with MZX are something like ZZT games, or basic engines using sprites... Nothing all too fancy like what you're seeing here.
All I'm saying is that with MegaZeux 2.51 or so, this probably wasn't even possible as such a smooth project. Unless...maybe...you played it at higher speeds. I dunno. I'm probably wrong. This game looks like it uses the "fan community" versions of MegaZeux which support all those "true game creation system" features like sprites and whatnot. I guess I'm just a big nerd for the simple charms of ZZT and classic MegaZeux while everyone else moves right along...
Wow... Megazeux (MZX) has really evolved into a really great game creation system, this game is a HUGE difference from games i'm used to playing on it!

Logicow just pushed this GCS to its limit. That is why we all love Logicow. :D

Does this game work on the PSP version of Dosbox? It would be pretty cool to play this game on the go!

Wow, this is probably the best DoZ game I've seen. It's a LOT different from what MegaZeux used to be years and years ago!

Hey, this is windy's friend, Ribonuke.
You guys did a really great job! I wish there was a way I could play that game, as it looks really challenging, but fun... <:3
