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. 😊

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.

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. 😄

Bank Panic (arcade) I just love the ridiculousness of this games premise: one lone lawman, defending the entire bank against a continual onslaught of robbers. Excellent cartoony graphics too, that make it a joy to play. 👍

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.

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? 😋

Combat School on the C64 is awesome fun. Except that vertical-waggling running section. That can rot in hell. 😋

Ha! I was pretty much saying the same thing on the 'other' social media site. hehe. I'm torn between which IK+ version to play though. Coz I like the extra bonus stage in the Amiga version, but I *really* don't like those headbands. 🤔 There's a nice simplicity to the C64 version that I like.. 😎

I liked having a little bit of the flashy-border loading at the beginning too. I mean, I always liked a bit of flashy-border loading. 😄 You can really get into a trance looking at that thing. 😵‍💫

Super Offroad (arcade) I don't know who thought to take 4x4 off-road racing and put it in a single-screen format much like Super Sprint. But whoever came up with that idea should be rewarded because "Ivan 'Iron Man' Stewart's Super Offroad", despite the crazy-long title is a barrel of fun. 😎

The 100k tax trap limits re-investment in our economy, and disincentivises people from earning above this threshold. Those with a student loan pay 71% marginal rates. Those with children LOSE money by earning over the threshold. I asked the Chancellor what she is doing to tackle this issue.

Jason is easily one of the most cinematic killers in the game. Grabbing stuff from the environment to kill you, bringing actual fog back to the game as he teleports, and leaving corpses around with his moris. Jason genuinely makes the game feel immersive.
