It’s not always unreleased games covered in the GTW64 archives, as occasionally we see the odd unearthed early preview or development version of an actual released game with some interesting differences or features. Today we have an earlier build of … Continue reading →
A surprise finding for GTW from a bundle of disks were recently sent in 2007 to GTW from Wayne Billingham, and on these disks came this very game. A preview of a fairly complete looking title called “The Power of … Continue reading →
A simple and early vertically scrolling game from an unknown period, and which has surfaced from an unknown source it seems. It’s a very early stage game and there doesn’t seem to be a trace of who was behind the … Continue reading →
As described by its creators "An Old Skool style shooter", and thats exactly what it is. Could be mistaken for a SEUCK effort, this is nothing too much to write home about. Simply shoot a series of attack waves and … Continue reading →
Steve Dunn did a few fair titles on the C64, but also had a few interesting unfinished/unreleased titles under his Backroom Software label. Blast was one of these titles which was a sort of Warhawk clone in its early stages … Continue reading →
Blaster Twins is a very early Bomberman clone which was being developed for Threshold Productions in the 90’s. There isn’t a huge amount that can be done, apart from blow up some bricks and move both players around. The Green … Continue reading →
An apparently neat puzzle game which doesn’t offer the most attractive of graphics, but is apparently very great to play. The game was done as some fun by a guy called Jer, who does not mention any more finishing off, … Continue reading →
An exclusive title to GTW and for the Christmas update of 2006. Thanks to Dave Spicer, our next title was originally known only as “Block game” due to not being given a proper name during its development, but we later … Continue reading →
Another good looking platform game, in its early stages. Blockman is very similar to Bleep Boy which is also in the archives, and is built using the same engine, though cosmetically the game is completely different. Actually both games are … Continue reading →
Bloid Bros is a 2 player split screen scrolling game which was written by Paul Rogers who did Time Soldier and Double Dragon 3 on the C64. You control two blobs which look rather like the character from Head The … Continue reading →
A quick entry for a game which has recently been uncovered. This is a very early and simple sideways SEU which is of particular interest because it contains we think an unheard JT tune and graphics by Arthur Van Jole. … Continue reading →
A game which made the news pages of various fanzines, including Commodore Scene magazine here in the UK around 1997. Bloodrush was to be a promising shooter for C64 fans who desperately awaited any new software to come about. Apart … Continue reading →
1991 Carleton Handley Platform: Amiga A huge thanks to both Carleton Handley and Vinny Mainolfi for passing on this abandoned prototype for us to put on the site which was for the Amiga platform. Vinny has been chatting with Carleton … Continue reading →
A very early stages game this time, with Bloody Stars putting you in a space ship to blast enemy hourdes. Much in the same vein as the old Synapse game, "Sentinel", or supposidly by the looks of things. There is … Continue reading →
199? Scienide Platform: Amiga 500 Blork was a very stylish underwater shooter being created by the demo group Scienide (http://www.scienide.de/) around the mid-late 90s, where you control a cute fish main character and his octopus friend within a very dark … Continue reading →
We’re not entirely sure if this game was done for the intention of selling, it’s still early days to know. The content of this text adventure suggests it was done as a bit of fun. This game seems to have … Continue reading →
We all know the famous tale about the Imagine Mega Games that never were, and these would go on to inspire Charlie Brooker with his brilliant Bandersnatch episode as part of his Black Mirror series. Within the episode, we could … Continue reading →
Many people who grew up in the 1980’s and the UK will remember the late Bob Monkhouse, who was the game show and comedy king for many decades. He was so famous, that not even the C64 could escape his … Continue reading →
A fun little platformer which took off initially as a joke, controlling a alcholic which has to collect empty beer bottles and sell them in the "Netto" supermarket. Created by Rasmus Wernersson and Peter Rasmussen , who has kindly contributed … Continue reading →
Boing is a very simple game as our next GTW entry. The reason it is so simple is because it is such an early preview. Boing was yet another game being produced after the commercial collapse of the C64 by … Continue reading →
