Early British microcomputer gaming scene
General assorted selection of stuff of note from the early UK home computer game development scene in the 1980s that got big after the ZX Spectrum was released, not really meant to be comprehensive at all (warning: may contain vast amounts of dismal anglo bullshit)
To qualify for this list, a game must have been developed in the UK (excluding ports of games that were originally made overseas), for at least one of the following systems:
-Sinclair ZX80/81
-Sinclair ZX Spectrum
-Commodore PET
-Commodore VIC-20
-Commodore 64/128
-Commodore 16
-Acorn Atom
-BBC Micro
-Acorn Electron
-Amstrad CPC
-Apple II
-Tandy TRS-80
also for some reason the chronological order displays oldest (or more accurately, date unlisted) games first rather than vice versa by default and there's no way to change it, which fucking sucks, so reverse it

Backloggd actually uses the name of the US version, the UK/European version is "MicroProse Soccer"
Famed serial sex offender Jimmy Savile was responsible for bringing this game to life on behalf of some kid that ended up perfectly emulating the experience of oppressive, dead-end retail work to make ends meet. Truly the epitome of the Thatcher era.
