Back in '83 Manic Miner was THE title that converted me from a casual gamer, to a serious hobbyist.
If anyone wants to relive those halcyon days, or would like to see what was cutting edge way back when, why not have a quick play on my lastest title, a remake of Manic Miner.

On the title screen (with the piano), pressing space switched between the Bug-Byte and Software Projects versions, also, pressing + or - switches between the Miner Willy and Jet Set Willy sprites.
