Bank Panic was always one I'd gravitate to when I was at an arcade. 👍 Brilliant fun game. 😎

This seems to be the story of half the C64's back catalogue: A lot of fun, but too damned hard. 😋 Some of them actually feel kinda reasonable with the emulator slowed down to 50% speed. haha.

The blue background, though true to the arcade, is unusual for the C64, where authors tended towards the safe choice of a black background. (Often the only way to make it high-contrast for the fuzzy TV's of the day.) There are a few hacked versions of the game that tweaked this:

No problem. 👍 If there's a mediocre game to be experienced on a niche platform, I'm all over it. 😋 I did have a 128 back in the day but, apart a Word Processor and Ultima V, there was nothing to be found here that took advantage of it. So it's nice to find the C128 things that are out there now. 😄

And lets not forget the sequel. For me, it was the perfect follow-up: futuristic metalic landscape, single-shots become double-shots, add a homing missile, and sprinkle some wee call-back easter eggs throughout the game. I've always got a spare credit for Time Pilot '84 too. 😄

Indianapolis 500 was such a cool game. I played the heck out of it. 😄 ..Was always a bit torn which version to play: The PC version with super-fast frame rate and tinny sound, or the Amiga version with gorgeous sound but terrible frame rate. 🤔 But either way, fun big crashes on replay.

Underwurlde is awesome fun. Then you fall five screens down and die. 😄

And, if you look at all the various hacks/cracks on the C64 Scene Database site, there's one (by JPH in 1984) where someone thought "A four-colour screen is a bit boring. Let's try to jazz it up a bit!" Which I kinda like. 😊

Pew pew pew! 😎

Uridium (C64) You ever wonder how much longer some of those Uridium demo games would be if there was some kind of obstacle-sensing algorithm for that ship? 😋

They claimed Alex Pretti was brandishing a deadly weapon because to them, a camera recording clear evidence of ICE crimes is just that. I’ll keep it simple. ICE agents do not enjoy “absolute immunity” and those who commit violent crimes will be prosecuted. We will enforce the rule of law.

Donald Trump uses ICE as his personal police force to terrorize our immigrant communities and rip children from their families, not to make our cities safer. It is immoral, illegal, and wrong.
