24.12.2024 - Christmas Eve 1986: Commodore 64 - video by '8-Bit Show And Tell'
Let's look through the UK magazine Commodore User, the December 1986 issue, and try out a type-in BASIC game called "Christmas Eve" by Sandy Munro. Just because, we'll try to optimize the main game loop to make the gameplay smoother, and tweak it a bit. And of course, there's a bug in the game that we can fix. There's also some bonus Christmas-themed music at the end. Merry Christmas!

22.12.2024 - Video: WIP 3 of the new C64 RPG called 'Kouyate' by Sarah Jane Avory
Ever since the 80s Sarah, who already brought us C64 hits like Briley Witch Chronicles, Zeta Wing and Neutron, always wanted to create an Ultima-style RPG for the C64, so she started creating one! This is the 3rd video clip, and shows quite a few things that are now working, including New Game. All numbers will need balancing once everything is finished, so for now the game's a bit easy.
