The Grim Reaper issue 12 November 1993¢--------------------------------------¢¢Welcome all to TGR 12.¢ Firstly, this issue of TGR 12 DOES NOT have two menus like I said it would in TGR 11. The reason for this is the game 'Golfer'. It is extremely long and to have two menus would have meant it being left out. I'm sure that people who haven't already seen this game will be extremely glad I left it in. It's a top class piece of software and nobody would have batted an eyelid if it had been commercially released. Another great game from Bewesoft and ABBUC!¢ Also not included is the 'risky' article I mentioned in the last TGR. I thought it would at least persuade a few of you Conservatives to write in complaining, but they probably all bought MSX's!¢ Many apologies to Flintstone for not thanking him in TGR 11 for his 'Tomb of Death' adventure he wrote for us. Sorry, Flintstone! I'll thank you next time (Mmmm...).¢ Well, I'm writing this on the Monday having returned from the AMS on Saturday and all I'll say is: Where were you all? Quite a few TGR readers said they'd be at the show but nobody actually came up and said hello! The only people that noticed me were Steve.S and John Foskett, so thank you both for making sure I didn't wear my black cap in vain!¢ Spite and I got a couple of new software titles from AMS so expect reviews in future TGR's. Please don't let this put you off sending in your own reviews though! All articles and reviews are still desperately needed to keep TGR going! It certainly doesn't get any easier to fill TGR with a nice blend of programs and articles and, believe me, this one was a real struggle.¢ My many thanx to The Pixel Pirate, Alias Maximus and Richard Gore for making the struggle bearable! You know it's appreciated guys.¢ Some of you may notice the inclusion of inverse characters in the doc file for 'Codebuster'. These were in originally and I wasn't sure how they'd print out, but on my Panasonic 1081 inverse characters simply print out in italic (which is excellent because the letter is then highlighted). I haven't tested it on any other printer so if anyone does print out this file could they please let me know how they got on and the make of printer they used? Thanx.¢ Before I go I've been asked to give the 'News-Paper' a mention. Basically, this replaces 'News-Disk' (which was published on disk) with the new format 'News-Paper' (which is on paper - must have taken you ages to think up that title Dean!). It costs #6 for four issues and is available from DGS, 62 Thomson Avenue, Balby, Doncaster, DN4 0NU.¢ Well, I think that's all for this issue. Enjoy the contents of TGR and if you can submit something, then please do.¢¢John E. (TEBSF)¢¢P.S. It's the middle of November but... MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR to all Atari 8-bit users and supporters.¢
