If you're looking for a decent release for the ZX Spectrum that features not one, but five mini games that will keep you occupied throughout this evening. Then look no further than this new Arcade conversion by Deanysoft called GORF. A game which is a conversion of a 1981 game originally by Dave Nutting Associates, as a fixed shooter with five distinct levels, the first of which is based on Space Invaders and another on Galaxian. To coincide with this news, we've got the full details below as well as some gameplay footage.
And here's the full details from Planet Sinclair(link). "Deanysoft has been very quiet since 2023, when the original Jeff & The Blue Notes, having also contributed to Woot! this year. But now it surprises us again with GORF, a conversion of a game that appeared in 1981 for various platforms" As for what people think of this release, then this feedback says it all. "Oh my, that really is exceptional. Gameplay is just about flawless, the colour works really well (clash isn't even noticeable), the bezel surround is fabulous and the sound is a standout. Absolutely stunning work. We are being properly spoiled for arcade conversions of late".
