Retro Red Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Spectrum emulation is very easy, most gui emulators will run the roms without any setup. keyboard input so it's just mapped to your pc keyboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Freebird Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 Most games were in one colour on a solid background. If you were lucky you maybe got two. Â I think the system could display about 5 colours simultaneously. Some game designers chose larger sprites / more detailed levels and animation over actual number of colours though.
