I can now throw any CHIP-8 or S-CHIP game at my emulator (running on the Acorn Electron) without problems. I added a menu that allows me to quickly switch between games on the disk

A classic BBC Micro track originally coded in BASIC - Addicts' Anthem by Daniel Pugh. There always seemed to be a very slight pause between pattern transitions, so I've taken the music data and re-implemented in 6502 assembler (Hence the strange playback rate).

Modern day tools are so cool for developing games on retro computers. Here's the BBC Micro source code for 'Crazee Rider' assembling using VSCode, Beeb VSC and BeebAsm. It then packages up the object files into a disk image suitable for loading and running on an emulator.
