ZX81 Software
TuT-TuT 81
Tut-Tut is Ancient Egyptian themed arcade puzzler, one part puzzle, two parts arcade action. The game is comprised of 28 levels, plus a hidden treasure chamber which may only be opened if you are deemed worthy.
The game is designed for 16k ZX81s and is available in a variety of formats. I'd of course highly recommend a physical copy produced by Cronosoft.

Tims Checkers
A belated homage to Tim Hartnell, one of the driving forces behind the early ZX81 scene and key founder of the ZX Computing magazine. 'Tims Checkers' is based around a board game challenge Tim set in an issue of ZX Computing back in October 1982.

Roman Numerals
A little Roman Numeral checker. Nothing complicated really just something you might find in a Magazine to type in back in the day. This was my first go at using the wonderful Z88dk C compiler to build ZX81 software.

ZX81 Hardware
ZX-Keys Keyboard
An external keyboard and interface designed for the ZX81, similar in function to the classic 80s Memotech Keyboard. Additionally the Keyboard component of the project is built to be used as a standard USB targeted specifically at ZX81 emulators.
Hardware Details:
Refer to the ZX-Key Page for full details.
A redesign of the original interface. This time around using a Arduino Pro Min and a Mini USB host shield. Just as for version one the device should work on any old 80s 8 bit computer. Project is designed to work with an Arduino Pro Min 3.3v and a Mini USB host shield.
To compile the ZeaMouse project a copy of the Circuits@Home Arduino USB Host Shield library is also required. This is available from the Git Hub repository: https://github.com/felis/USB_Host_Shield

ZeaMouse V1
An Arduino / AVR project adding a USB mouse to a ZXpand and ZXpand+ via the joystick port. The interface should work on just about any 80s Micro with a standard Atari joystick pin out (some mods may be required).
