* Graphic Patterns (Martin Scarland)
A modification to ''Amstrad Drumkit'' was published in the [[Amstrad Action, Issue 9, Jun 1986|June 1986]] issue (#9). The modified version would later appear on the covertape included with the [[Amstrad Action, Issue 16, Jan 1987|Christmas 1986]] issue (#16), and again on the covertape included with the [[Amstrad Action, Issue 74, Nov 1991|November 1991]] issue (#74).
John Keneally also programmed the game ''[[Dervish]]'', which was published by [[The Power House]] in 1988. ''Graphic Patterns'' is a copy slightly modified version of a listing that was taken from published in the CPC464 User Instructions and modified slightly. This was confirmed by a reader who wrote a letter to ''Amstrad Action'', which was published in the [[Amstrad Action, Issue 8, May 1986|May 1986]] issue (#8).

* Key-RSX (Philip Pepperell)
A correction to ''Unerase'' was published in the [[Amstrad Action, Issue 11, Aug 1986|August 1986]] issue (#11), which fixed a problem where the wrong line number was displayed if the user typed in the <tt>DATA </tt> statements incorrectly. However, the program still works without the correction if it is typed in without any mistakes.

* Blitter (Paul Bond)
Two versions of ''CAT#8'' were supposed to be published in this issue - one version for CPC464 machines, and a shorter version for CPC664 and 6128 CPC6128 machines, which used the <tt>COPYCHR$</tt> command. However, ''Amstrad Action'' forgot to print the 464 version. It was published in the [[Amstrad Action, Issue 11, Aug 1986|August 1986]] issue (#11). ''Blitter'' would later appear on the covertape included with the [[Amstrad Action, Issue 16, Jan 1987|Christmas 1986]] issue (#16).
