Hiya Povi,
Do these games (Bumpy & Pop Up) work on EP32?
I am having problems with both.

Bumpy loads the screen, and then the program, then I cannot get it to do anything else.
Pop Up loads up ok, the starfield scrolls, and then same problem as above.

Do I need to use ep128emu for these, or am I missing something else?

Yes it is work with EP32! When I work on this programs, I use the EP32 for testing.
After the Bumpy loaded, you pressed the Y or the N key?
And in the Popup, when scrolling, then press 1 or 2 or 3.

Note: the Popup is "beta version", now have some bugs, and no sound in the main program... I working on it

Ok... working now!
Never knew I had to press those keys. Must be missing the instructions somewhere!

Is one of the bugs in the controls?
In Bumpy I pressed the UP key to bounce higher to get back up a level on the platform.
Could not get the same to work in Popup.

PS... shall continue scanning 'Private Enterprise' soon. Life has been that busy.

In the Popup you can bounce with the ALT key

(This is also work in the Bumpy, if you selected the Internal Joy) and in the current version of Popup, you can use also the Space for bouncing.

If you selected the Keyboard controlls in the Bumpy, the keys are the Q-A-O-P (Spectrum standard

)

In both game, if you go to trap, press S for restart level. P=Pause game, but currently do not use in the Popup

- Convert TAP to WAV,
- Play TAP as audio to load in a real EP or just for your fun,
- Change the order and the name of the files in the TAP
