One of my earliest C64 games. Spent many many hours playing it. Brilliant cassette cover artwork as well.

It’s time for humanity to give another species a shot. This is truly an awful advert.

Very jealous, but a thing of beauty! Thanks for the image 👍

Agreed. IMO totally right to apologise given the nature of the edits, but also totally right to also follow up to say there’s no defamation case given nothing was aired in the US that could have influence.

Seems he has a lucrative income stream of legal action.

Great to have your original. I had to sell to fund my upgrade to Amiga 500 but collected one a few years ago that prob needs a recap to be safe.

Very much excited for the Ultimate and hopefully the recent Italian related news doesn’t scupper things.

Breadbin every time for me. Was my fave 8-bit computer with amazing childhood memories.

Preordered the C64 Ultimate Starlight for this reason.

Supported! Just a hobby artist so don’t make any income but really appreciate the work the team does with what I think is the worlds best free software 🫡

Sharing some creations…

Thankfully I don’t have the need for the Sinclair additions as my original ZX81 and Spectrum 48k have been collected.

Hoping we might see an Amiga Ultimate at some point 🤞

This is VERY tempting as looks a really good option for scratching that Amiga itch.

Just preordered the C64 Utlimate Starlight so sadly will have a wait a little while (until I drunk buy after a few spiced rum and cokes!)

Great memories!

Good job you guys didn't do China Miner, otherwise that'd be 30 minutes of loading music!

Love a hand drawn map. Shows how invested people were. Recall doing notes for The Bards Tale for Skara Brae on my C64

I did have a suspicion.

Recently pre-ordered and going through all the great videos from family Fractic about the developments. Reignited my nostalgia once more!

Not seen it yet, but am sure I saw a news article recently saying they’d got rid of loads of creative staff due to replacement with AI.

I’m preparing for the end of the world by moving back to the 80s and 90s by ensuring C64 & CD collections are fine.

Makes me laugh every time I see or play this game that Arthur’s putting so much effort into running but doesn’t seem to get anywhere fast! 😂

Sounds like work need a top notch IT Team. We have sub 40 sec boot to use time with user experience at the root of the config of Windows. Also I’ve ditched apps and use web versions of M365 apps for 99% of my workday. Loads of time spare for unproductive meetings instead! 😄
