25 Years Cascade
Author: Zeldin - written on 25.07.2013
Happy birthday!!! Cascade was found in April 1988 (read trivia for more info) and so this makes it a fourth of a century old. We planned to celebrate this with a little, sweet demo. It would have contained the graphics you see on the right (more info about it here). But we sadly failed, due to time intensive real life things. We already missed the 20 years celebration demo and together with lots of other failed projects, all the unfinished parts, routines, graphics and stuff are slowly filling more an more disks in our boxes. Anyway... we are still around, and one day we will even manage to pull out a demo again, I am sure. In the meantime you might enjoy the shown no-border graphic, made for the jubilee.
Now a short message to all current or former Cascade members: Wherever you are, to which coast of life you got drifted, I want to send you my warm hearted greetings and all my love. Feel honoured, that you have been (or still are) part of a project, that was started as a simple hobby of some young lads - unprofessional, non-commercial, not lifestyle driven and not guided by any political or industrial elites - and still it exists after 25 years! I feel very proud of that and so should you!

08.11.2026 - Isometric action-adventure 'Batman' for C64 and Plus/4 released - free for download
This is a conversion of Batman, Ocean’s 1986 ZX Spectrum isometric adventure by Jon Ritman and Bernie Drummond, which never had an official C64 or Plus/4 version. Until now. Both versions are built from the same codebase. The gameplay is identical to the original, and after many rounds of optimization it runs close to the Spectrum’s speed. MHz clock in the border for faster room changes. The story: Robin has been kidnapped and the Batcraft lies in pieces. Explore 150 rooms of traps and enemies, find the seven Batcraft parts, and pick up Batman’s equipment on the way: boots to jump, thruster to steer in the air, belt to slow his fall, Bat-bag to carry things.

08.11.2026 - The Making of GhostLight2 - video by 'RobSmithDev'
Last year Rob brought you a different simple spooky Amiga game called GhostLight. This year he re-visited it with some upgrades and released it as GhostLight 2! To make some of the new effects work he had to make some extensive rendering changes but it's all still done with Amos. In this video Rob talks you through how a lot of that works without even touching any of the code!
