02.08.2026 - C64 game 'Callback: Operation Internot' - preview free for download
'Callback: Operation Internot' is a C64 game about redemption, touching grass, and liberating the blue-light zombies from the iron grip of the feed. You'll meet innocents trapped in the algorithm and rage-baited loyalists sent to derail your mission. Win them all with kindness (and a flip phone). Current status of the preview version: Stage one, Neon City, is playable start to finish. Twenty souls, the cassette, the sprint to the exit, and everything above. A boss battle for the end of Neon City and a second, vertically scrolling level are in progress. The engine already loads levels as data - each one carries its own character set and its own cast - so stage two will be a genuinely different place rather than a reskin.
