Collapse OS is a z80 kernel and a collection of programs, tools and documentation that allows you to assemble an OS that can (available on Github) :

• Run on minimal and improvised machines
• Interface through improvised means (serial, keyboard, display)
• Edit text files
• Compile assembler source files for a wide range of MCUs and CPUs
• Read and write from a wide range of storage devices
• Replicate itself

Additionally, the goal of this project is to be as self-contained as possible. With a copy of this project, a capable and creative person should be able to manage to build and install Collapse OS without external resources (i.e. internet) on a machine of her design, built from scavenged parts with low-tech tools.

His author has been contacted, he seems interesting in porting it on Amstrad CPC. It already works on RC2014 and the Sega Mega Drive.

Xalk is a match 3type game written by Anthony HENRIQUES in 1991 and published in the issue 33 of the Amstrad 100% newspaper in January 1991, following the release of the game Klax.

In 2017 Anthony HENRIQUES rewrote parts of the game : diagonal matches and combos, bug crushing. The speed at the start of the game is more or less random and the game can be paused with the Space key.

In 2019 Tom et Jerry, Kukulcan for the programmation and Ixien for the music also did enhance the game once more.

To see Xalk in the video, go to 7 minutes and 34 seconds.
