Our next entry into the archives is a fairly recent development from 2018 which sadly seems to have been abandoned. Beat Em Up (working title) is a set of test concepts where you have two players that can fight against other enemies.
There is nothing much to it at this stage, just a series of animating sprites on the screen that you can move around and carry out fight actions. The second preview has a bit more interaction, but there is no “game” here just yet.
The development is by Leigh White, who has done a few other C64 games in the past. Thanks to 5ace in the comments, a post on Lemon64 highlights how the game came about and how it has been paused due to a lack of time.
It is possible that the game as a result will get resurrected, but for now it remains sadly within the GTW archives.
