16.07.2021 - New C16/Plus4 game 'Nu, Pogodi!' released
'Nu, Pogodi!' is an implementation of a LCD game from the Soviet Union with the same name. Instead of the actual cyrillic title, phonetic latin characters are used. The original LCD game's internal workings are not documented anywhere, but every effort has been taken to make this version as close to the original as possible. (Most other clones we've seen are inaccurate.) This version has been adjusted so that the game speed is accurate even on NTSC machines.
