ZAK McDRUCKEN SAVES THE CHICKENS — Timex — VERSIONE DI PROVA 0.3

Original game: RetroSouls Team, September2025.
Game by Denis Grachev. Music by Oleg Nikitin.
Port: 2026 by Outsoftware using ChatGPT & Codex.
Original: https://retrosouls.itch.io/zkmcdstc-zx-spectrum

Platform: Timex TS2068 with native ROM. No replacement Spectrum ROM.
Controls: O/P left/right, Q/A up/down, SPACE or M action; Sinclair1/2.
R restarts the level. Q/A raise/lower the designated platforms.
Stand next to a chicken and press SPACE to pick it up, carry it, then put
it down on the teleporter. Original controls and beeper music are retained.

The initial BASIC is editable: BREAK during the credits pause, LIST to
inspect it, RUN to restart. For an ordinary test, let loading complete.
SPACE exits the loading-screen music.

Observed tests: native Timex ROM cold start in the recovered emulator,
using original TS-Pico firmware and an explicit ROM service shim; BREAK,
BASIC edit, RUN, cover, music and game initialization checked.
Level01 completed through ordinary input only: raise platform, pick up,
carry and teleport the chicken; actual entry into Level02.
Lowercase m/w glyphs corrected to reproduce the originals.
The complete campaign is not verified. Physical hardware, TC2068 and
analog cassette loading remain untested. This is a VERSIONE DI PROVA build.

This ZIP contains only the TAP and instructions in three languages.

Variant: rebuilt BASIC for TS-Pico SD loading. Copy ZAK03.TAP to SD
and select it with the TS-Pico loader. Keep the supplied uppercase name.
The game does not require additional RAM expansion.
