Title: BB4W Games Website
Post by: Richly on December 09, 2016, 08:26:53 PM

This site was down for a long time but is now back up and running. Many of the games have the source code available.

All written using BBC BASIC for Windows.

Unfortunately the links to the download / web sites are long gone in most cases. Maybe I'm just unlucky with my choices.

John,

All of the links on the site are alive. You just have to do exactly as advised -- (right-click then "Save As...") -- rather than click the link only to see an Error 404 URL Not Found screen.

Very nice, thanks Richey!

It appears BB4W has alpha with RGB? (It's been so long ago since I had it.)  :-[
