29.05.2023 - One Bad Byte Broke This Game: Commodore 64's "Livingstone, I Presume?" - video from '8-Bit Show And Tell'
"Livingstone, I Presume?" is a puzzle platform adventure that had me entranced as a kid. Unfortunately, the Commodore 64 version I played always crashed at a particular point well into the game. I thought it was a bug in my pirated copy, but later I've learned even the original store-bought version had the bug. Today we take a look at the game and the cause of the crash, and see if we can fix it and get further into the game.

Mario Bros is not that well known .. it came after Donkey Kong but before Super Mario Bros, introduced Luigi for the first time and also changed Mario from a carpenter into the plumber that we know today.
