Music Monday: Inspiration can come from anywhere, indeed some of the best-loved tracks on the C64 were heavily inspired by riffs, basslines, and melodies.

Back in the day I bought so many issues of the Official PlayStation Magazine just to try out the demos. It’s even easier to try stuff before you buy these days. Obviously I’d recommend Millie & Molly but there’s lots of good stuff here.
If you're on the fence about shelling out for one of our #NintendoSwitch games, you can always grab a FREE demo of LOVE, 10 Second Ninja X, Destructivator, Word Forward, Millie & Molly, Cardful Planning, or Pan-Dimensional Conga Combat on the #eShop. Go get 'em!

Music Monday: Martin Walker's epic C64 game Citadel - part shoot 'em up, part strategy game - boasted an equally epic soundtrack laced with swirling multiplexed chords and thundering basslines.

I look at Commodore 64 "Cyberdyne Warrior" unreleased intro and some loading screens. These were not used in the final game but were mentioned on the excellent Games That Weren't site. @gamesthatwerent.com I then link all of these assets into a disk image and source code.

I look at #Commodore64 "Cyberdyne Warrior", released in 1989, created by the Rowlands brothers. Many colours, wipes and fades, distinctive sound style, multiplexed sprites with expansion, and sprite background priority effects.
