15.07.2023 - Amiga game 'Boxx Remake V1.0' released - free for download
Boxx is a small platform game that was originally made in 2014 for the Commodore Amiga. But it was made with Backbone so it had poor performance. Now, in 2023, the game is ported to the much better Scorpion Engine and runs a lot smoother. This remake has updated graphics, sfx and new code based on Boxx 4.

10.07.2023 - Cracking a C64 Game From Cassette: Livingstone, I Presume? - video from '8-Bit Show And Tell'
In a previous video we took a look at the crash in the Commodore 64 port of the Operasoft game "Livingstone, I Presume?", unraveling the cause of the crash and coming up with a live-patch to fix the problem. This time we learn how to "crack" the game from the original cassette so we can patch the game and save it to disk permanently fixed, rather than having to re-patch the game every time it's loaded. Check the video description for links to everything I reference.
