A fantastic new demo from the programmer of whom Andrew Braybrook said "never heard of him" and Crash! said "I think you have the wrong number, please stop calling".  The greatest homebrew since PG Tips?  You be the judge.  After being a (fairly) good boy for all of 2024 Stretch received The Spectrum for Christmas and immediately dashed up to his bedroom to start whacking out. (Code for this delightful puzzler.)  A simple-yet-addictive game of planning, reflexes, trying to remember which button you bound to 'up' and fiendish level design results in this 4-level demo which in great Spectrum tradition has a much easier second level than the first.  A joy to play, lots of 'one-more-go and THEN I'll put that housefire out and rescue the family' about it, I can't wait for Stretch to finish the other 252 levels that he promised.
