Thanks to work by Daniele Terdina and Jiri Dolezal, we have now
released the Sinclair QL Games Collection 1.
This is a set of 10 commercial games for you to play on a Windows
based PC, running under Q-emulator for £10
We hope this will help distil the comments that the QL was only
ever a business machine and will hopefully help promote the QL itself.
The games included are:
* Cuthbert in Space by Steve Bak and S J Proctor
* Deathstrike by Damon Chaplin and T. Bovingdon
* Hoverzone by R G Riley
* Jungle Eddi by Stefan Kuhne
* QL Hopper by Steve Bak and S J Proctor
* QL Pengi by Jochen Merz and R. Bieniek
* QL Vroom by Daniel Macré
* Stone Raider II by Alex J Herbert
* The King by C H Robertson Consultants
* The Lost Pharaoh by Stefan Kuhne
More details appear at:

Hi Rich,
Wow! Well done to you, and the guys ... :-)
I am not a game player, myself, yet it all helps to promote the QL
and re-new its life.
I guess that the Games will all run under QPC2, too?

The games are available individually (some run under QPC2, with it set
at 512x256, 8 colour mode), or as this special package.
The special package includes a runtime version of q-emulator, which is
then used to run the games - there is just one file containing the
games and the runtime emulator, so that you cannot download the
individual games onto a standard QL or another emulator.
Hi Rich,
That is as I expected. The Runtime Version has a chance of bringing in
more users to the original QL platform experience, by this method. As
well as appealing to existing QL users.
Would be useful, to have the other option, too, of running under other
Emulators.
I guess that Marcel, for example, may make a QPC2 arrangement with you?
It all helps to get promotion of the QL.
