  There's a fairly active hobbyist scene around the East German 8-bit computers, and most of them seem to hang around here: http://www.robotrontechnik.de/html/forum/thwb/index.php http://www.robotrontechnik.de/html/forum/thwb/index.php, I think you need to ask for access though. You can check out some of the games running in emulators here: https://www.lanale.de/kc85_emu/KC85_Emu.html https://www.lanale.de/kc85_emu/KC85_Emu.html ...and in my own emulators here (not as complete as the above link though): https://floooh.github.io/tiny8bit/ https://floooh.github.io/tiny8bit/ Oh, and there's also: http://www.kc85emu.de/ http://www.kc85emu.de/ and http://www.mpm-kc85.de/ http://www.mpm-kc85.de/ with lots of scans of old manuals, also information and photos of the hardware.
