Angry Birds Style
I really admire Black Turk’s ambition to try and squeeze what many would feel are impossible games for the C64. He also attempted Sonic The Hedgehog and Snow Bros conversions which were never going to work, but it was fun … Continue reading
Another Kingdom
Another Kingdom is a nice single character based RPG title that was being developed back in 2010. Although seeming to come on well and shaping up nicely, it seems to have been abandoned with no further work completed on the … Continue reading

Apex Demos
After the discovery of various bits and pieces which were created by Apex and that never saw the light of day, there remained a few demos which didn’t really tie into any particular GTW titles. So as the Rowland Brothers … Continue reading
Apollo 14
A great looking game in similar style to the first part of Dynamic’s "Game Over", with some awesome graphics in similar style to those common with X-Ample games of the early 90’s. This game is not based on any moon … Continue reading
Apprentice
A well received game on the Amiga, “Apprentice” was to be another great release from Rainbow Arts in 1990. The game made its way into magazines, via double sided adverts, but as usual the game never surfaced on the C64. … Continue reading

Arc Angel
What seems to be a very promising preview at the start, with a lot of really nice glossy presentation and graphics – when you start this preview, you are pretty much greeted by a static bitmap and some test sprites … Continue reading
Arcadian
Not too much to say here about this game at present. We know very little about it, but that god damn title tune is something I’ve heard somewhere before… that jingle…. but where?… a demo?… what?…. aghhh… Thanks to Warren … Continue reading

Armalyte 2
Back on our screens in 1988, we were graced by one of the greatest SEU’s of all time. Armalyte was released with an almighty impact, shaping the way all sideways SEU’s should be on the C64. With the first game’s … Continue reading
Armalyte and Hawkeye early protos
Just a very quick post to share a few pre-release versions of Hawkeye and Armalyte. Nothing to get too excited about, and the Hawkeye version has already been put out last year – just slightly under the radar. The purpose … Continue reading

A Game Boy Color version was also reportedly in development at the time by a different, currently unknown studio. Continue reading
