Do you have other friends?

Well, another year is coming to an end. And as usual, these are the days when it's customary to sum up results and make some plans for the coming year.

For ZX Online, the year has been quite good – we released several interesting games, including for the ZX Spectrum Next, the site's audience doubled, and even more people joined our retro movement. Which makes me personally, and all the authors who publish on ZXOnline, very happy.

For next year we already have a huge number of new features planned for ZXOnline – it will become even faster, more convenient, and more interesting: there will be a site redesign, a new emulator, we'll finally finish the ratings functionality, and a few more things (which we're keeping secret, but believe me, it will be a bombshell not only for ZX Online, but for the entire platform as a whole!). But we don't want to limit ourselves to just ZX Spectrum, because (let's be honest) the ZX Spectrum is the best platform in the world, but not the only one. That's why both developers and users periodically ask us whether we'd like to support other retro platforms too.

Well then. Challenge accepted! And this is exactly the case where you personally can influence the future of our resource. We invite you to take a short survey to express your attitude toward popular retro platforms. We will carefully analyze all the data received and make the results publicly available. The survey is quite small and will take a couple of minutes. Click here: TAKE THE SURVEY Thank you for helping us stay relevant and grow :)

And for today I have another not-so-joyful thing that I have to announce – as of December 23, we are (temporarily?) stopping accepting payments via Paypal.

The other payment methods will work as before, and at the same time we will be looking for other ways to re-enable Paypal. So if you were planning to buy something on ZXOnline in the near future – do it right now.

-----------------

This year has been a difficult one, but regardless of what the coming year, 2023, has in store for us, I wish everyone health, kindness, good luck, and success in all your endeavors. May warmth and comfort reign in your families all year long, and may the ZX Spectrum screen glow green in that "special" corner.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, friends!
