MazeBot
A downloadable game
MazeBot is a simple maze solving program written in Sinclair BASIC for the ZX Spectrum.
The built in maze editor allows you to draw a fixed size maze, which the computer will attempt to solve using a 'breadcrumbs' approach. It's slow and not terribly efficient, but it's a fun way to look at how even a dumb computer can be programmed to solve a fairly complex maze.
Since it's coded in BASIC, the source can be easily viewed by BREAKing into the program.
You will need an emulator to play this game. May I suggest my own emulator Zero to play this game: http://zero.arjunnair.in/download/
Or you can try various others, for various platforms, that can be found at: https://worldofspectrum.org/tools/emulators
Enjoy!

Hi, I’m contacting you because I want to make a homebrew tribute USB. I’m collecting as many content creators as possible. I also want to include a profile for each one, with a few details, such as their logo, avatar, name, work completed, projects, etc., so you can see who’s behind their creations.
That profile, along with any material you allow me to upload, will be placed on a USB drive. This will act as a database of creators and their creations, and will be updated as I connect with new people.
The USB I’m thinking of creating will be one of those rubber-type USBs, shaped like a Spectrum computer, something that looks really nice. The idea is that those who contribute material, and if they want to buy one or more, will get it at cost price, and those who just want to buy one, it will cost a little more.
The idea is that if enough are sold, enough to recover the initial investment, the profits that the rest of the USBs could generate will be distributed among the people who have contributed material to the project, via transfer, PayPal, or however possible, even if possible, that the USB will be free. Obviously, you can buy more than one, but only one of them can be free.
It’s not necessary or mandatory to buy the USB, only if you like it or want it.
If you’re interested in this project, you can contact me at this email, flopping@gmail.com. If you have any questions or concerns, let me know and I’ll answer them. Do you think the idea is a good one? Would you like to participate in the project? Let me know. Best regards.
Juan.
