Sotchi Advanced Downhill Tea Tray Simulator

Developer: absinthe_boy
Genre: Winter Sports

 

Platform: Spectrum 48K
Language: BASIC

Back in February the CSSCGC team sent us out to the Winter Olymics in Sochi, however, we got separated from our luggage on the way back and only now - after it's been 'round the world nearly 70 times, we're told - have we finally got it back.

As well as reuniting Dave with his second pair of underpants we also found this recording of a previously unbroadcasted event commentary. Happy Days!

A hastily produced and vaguely festive game which involves trying to place your pixel (coin) inside the UDG (pudding) by guestimating how many pixels there are horizontally and vertically between the two. Excited? Read the review for more along the same lines.

Developer: Ed Raven
Genre: Keepy Uppy

 

Platform: Spectrum 48K

"I thought I'd knock up one last game in an afternoon..." Ed hangs up his CSSCGC boots and, despite having no UDGs and using only the simplest sounds, it's suprisingly good. Did he even read the rules?

Mr Money!

Developer: Pete
Genre: Maze & Collect

 

Platform: Spectrum 48K
Language: BASIC

Pete rediscovered this lost gem from 1989 and considered restoring the lost loading screen and adding extra levels for a sort of Special Edition. Lazily (but, arguably, correctly) concluding this would be a waste of effort he just sent in the .SNA instead. Good man!
