This Commodore Amiga 4000 is beautiful...on the inside. It may have looked great too when it was originally painted, but today it's looking worn, tired and old. Can paint be stripped from it though? Can it be restored to an original condition?

18.06.2023 - New C64 game 'Nesterin Trail' - preview released
'Nesterin Trail' is a WIP text/graphics adventure for the C64 of which you can download an early preview. Active gameplay is still very limited, though. You can move around and explore some of Nesterin and its surroundings (and start to get an idea of the potential story elements you'll need to work on), you can interact with people (ask them about things), and you have a couple of plot paths you can already follow.
