Compliments for this very well presented box sets. I like the card box style and design!

Would it be possible to modify some of the games with e.g. better graphics ... creating so to say back to the future old school versions? ;)

Potentially if someone wanted to modify the programs - however, we do not have source code for most of these so the graphics would have to be patched directly into the code :lol:

Hi,

Most of the Games would be compiled SuperBASIC, so very hard to reverse engineer the code.

But Simon Goodwin did say there was a possibility of a Decompler for Turbo programmes to be written. But this never got done, such a pity...

Actually most of the games are in machine code - those which are compiled SuperBASIC (such as FlightDeck) I either have the sources, or they should be available.
