Commodore 64: 8 Bit Legend
Author: Zeldin - written on 19.09.2012
Bah... seems I am not able to post something regularly... at least not even once a year :-(
I am currently writing on my second novel, and don't find time for C64 activities, which is really sad. Next year we'll have 25th anniversary of Cascade, and I really want to make some little celebration demo around this happening, but I am afraid, it will be a tough nut to find some free minutes for squeezing a bunch of pixels, code and music into a file.
Well, we'll see...
Anyway... today I finally felt to post something, not only for giving the front page look a deserved change, but to make sure you won't miss the following youtube vid, which is really impressive. A brilliant and contemporary commercial for our good old and beloved breadbox.
So here we go...

04.10.2026 - C64 game 'One More Haul' released
'One More Haul' is an arcade action game with certain similarities to the classic Boulder Dash. Take your mining rig beneath the surface, carve a shaft through the rock, then leave the cab to explore. Mount remote TNT on gray chamber walls, retreat before the blast, and carry each treasure back to your machine. But beware, drilling and explosions can loosen stone and falling rocks crush on impact, and quicksand spills into opened tunnels. You can carry one treasure at a time. Your rig can hold the entire haul. Getting that loaded machine home is the part that matters. You can get the game as digital download for a fair price to support the developer, but you are also able to download a free demo version to test it first.
