Nugget's Game Pack 09 Modern-Games-Top-100 Aug 2020
---------------------------------------------------

This pack contains games released since 2000 with an emphasis on games in the last 3 years (2018-2020). The number of games that have been released long after the commercial death of the platform is staggering, as is the quality of the releases. 
Game engines have been written during this time and bright sparks have extended the capability of these, including Arcade Game Designer by Johnathan Cauldwell, and the Musicizer by David Saphier for incorporating AY 128K Audio (See any of Jaime Grilo's Games), BiFrost and Nirvana for multicolour goodness (see Noentiendo games, RetroSouls games, or Pushbot) and the Mojon Twins' MK2 engine (See Ubhres games, Mojon Twins games, or their latest Che-Man).
There are 170 unique games in this pack covering the entire spectrum (get it!) of genres out there, including arcade remakes, puzzles, arcade adventures, shoot em ups, by coders from all over the world. The russians now know there is a scene outside of Pentagon machines so most games nowadays have english language and will work on regular spectrums, or have a version for them. All the multicolour games traditionally have separate Pentagon versions as the computer has radically different timings compared to the original speccy's, but in my versions they will detect what flavour they are running on and patch accordingly. Unfortunately the ZX Spectrum Next running on HDMI has timings different to regular spectrums so these few multicolour games may need to run with RGB video output (which has correct timing).
