Galaforce 2 - Open Source

Source: https://github.com/KevEdwards/

Last week, the BBC Micro (affectionately called Beeb by its fans) had its 40th. But hey, 40 is the new 30, right?

Kevin Edwards, who may be familiar to some, has taken this joyous anniversary as an opportunity to open source a number of tracks for the Beep.

And so today we may say a cheery Hello to the original but expanded version of Galaforce 2 - Aliens' Revenge.

Due to the historical developments of the machine at the end of the 80s, the title was not really a financial success. All the more it honors Kevin that he makes the source available to the general public for free today.

The source can be easily converted to binary with the help of beebasm, and subsequently run with almost all of the available emulators.

A nice excursion into the 80s and a great title with which you can sink quite a bit of time.
