Loftcat Archives This archive lists most software I've written since the late 1980s including Top of the League and the early text adventures. Specifically for Data PD Library related things see the Data PD page. The majority of software listed here is self-written along with a few things by friends and family too. Amiga downloads are in ADF format and should (probably) run on any Amiga OS 1.2 -> 3.9. WinUAE or a real Amiga recommended (using Amiga Explorer or a PCMCIA CF reader). For BBC/Electron I recommend Beeb Em or Elkulator. For CPC WinAPE and ZX Spectrum Speculator or Fuse. Where a download is provided below the software can be freely obtained (copyright remains with the authors).
