The Atari STacy! Released in 1989, this portable ST has a pretty swish form factor when compared to it's nearest rival, the Mac Portable - and built-in MIDI!

It was originally intended to run on batteries but they had such poor lifespan that Atari gave up and glued shut the compartment.

Been playing The Lords of Midnight lately, and it sells its cheesy high fantasy world and premise with a confidence and grandiosity that feels impossible for a 1984 ZX Spectrum game. Absolutely magical experience that has lost none of its power in the 41 years since its release.

My Top 64 #C64 Clones - No. 5

Lode Runner

Lode Runner doesn’t look or sound amazing, but don’t be fooled. Beneath its modest exterior lies one of the most addictive games on the C64. Influenced by the arcade game Space Panic, this platform puzzler is enormous fun and still plays brilliantly today.

30 Days of Platforms - Video Game Edition

Day 27

Monty on the Run on the C64 (1985)

Classic flick-screen platform action with an equally classic Ron Hubbard theme tune, sees you playing escaped convict Monty Mole as he looks to escape from his captors and flee to Europe.

One of my favourite, early platformers, which was more fun than Jet Set Willy.
