06.08.2022 - Commodore 64 Double Dragon: The Waist Gap (Sprite Multiplexing) - new Video from '8-Bit Show And Tell'
We take a look at the 1988 conversion of Double Dragon for the Commodore 64 which is somewhat notorious for poor playability and the infamous "waist gap" the developers issued a veiled apology for in the game manual.
