Some great news - I have now received approval from Robert Stekelenburg (who owned Ekotek) to make The Simulator freeware.
We have preserved a copy which runs as a disk image in q-emulator - there is currently copy protection on this, which reduces how many copies can be made onto real disks.
Robert is going to see what he has for his QL in case he has the sources but at least that is another one ticked off the list!

Hmm...sector copy should give an identical disk to run...? But maybe there are bad things, like Jochen has done for a few of his games, formating one side in Spectrum format.

You may want to wait until this game can be released with a manual - there also seems to be some minor issues on q-emulator ....
