Ultrabulb
Our next entry popped up via Twitter in late 2020 thanks to Mark Hardisty, who spotted ex-C64 developer Chris Hester posting up some photos of a game that he worked on. Ultrabulb seems to be a kind of Spindizzy clone, … Continue reading

Star-Wars
Not seemingly based on the famous film series at all, this is a very simple multi-directional scrolling shooter that was being developed back in 1996. It does have a slight feel of “Empire Strikes Back” from the VCS about it, … Continue reading

Pac Man Arcade
I was slightly disappointed when loading up this amazing looking preview, of what I hoped was going to be an accurate and fun conversion of the classic arcade. Although it looks amazing, its sadly not playable at this stage at … Continue reading
