    Crackpots, yet another stunning C64 port from the VCS by has been released. Weirdly, I don't remember this game from the 80s at all.

    Commodore went bankrupt in 1994 and we're still discovering never before seen devices in 2020. This c64 Game Machine was revealed by Andy Finkel today. Photos copyright Andy Finkel. Used with explicit permission.

    The true meaning of retro-gaming is to discover and play a relatively ancient game for the first time in the present day and enjoying it despite having zero nostalgia for it. Today's game: Forbidden Forest (1983) / C64 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Where have I been for the last 37 years?)

    I like this a lot.

    Back to the drawing board... Redesigning my Magic Desk cartridge so it can snuggly fit Stumpy cart case, among others that it already fits. I'm sure will like this :)

    And carry l did !! I broke it down it as many pieces as I could and transported them home over a couple of weekends on the train. Some many possibilities. LED strip lighting, spray over the logo etc. (The layout was for illustration only and doesn't represent the final design)

    First full-price game I bought I think, I was a fan of the show but didn't dare hope the game was any good. It was great!

    Love Trap Door. Beautiful huge cartoon-y graphics. I wish more game authors had done games that looked like Trap Door / Popeye / etc. 😎

    Hmm, so the only known set of Phase5 keycaps in the wild appeared on German eBay and sold for €879: I dunno what "Radio PARALAX" is or how they got it, but these funds are the spoils of a five year-old scam. Oh and it will be worthless in a few months.

    Just found this at my mum's, knew I still had it somewhere. It was part of the minimalist GamesMaster Club welcome pack. I'd completely forgotten that I'd taken it with me the second time I was on the show and he signed the back for me!

    I want to say a MASSIVE thank you to for this new, unused blue Dallas case! Added a blue LED, going to stick a 250425 board in it for the time being. Hoping to see the blue 250466 board and translucent blue keycaps later in the year, and the Blue Meanie will be complete.

    The original C64 keyboard's typeface is something of an enigma. Nobody knows its name and no fonts exist. It is very close to Trade Gothic Condensed, but the 'G', 'Q' and others glyphs are totally different. Various DIN fonts as well as Bebas are similar, but none are exact.

    Doing a second pass of the keycap graphics, I removed every key on my 'Aldi' keyboard and flat-scanned them top and front. The flattened image will help me get the proportions absolutely right. I've found that the black/white characters are slightly bolder than the white/brown.

    "File not found" is perfectly acceptable feedback from a computer. Does anyone else find this push towards chatty, dumbed-down, pretend AI messages of the type "Hmm, sorry we weren't able to find what you were looking for" massively jarring?

    Less than 24 hours until the campaign ends. If you want keycaps from the first run, now's the time: If you're nervous of a repeat of the Phase5 debacle, I have swapped 100 e-mails with Jim and I can tell you he is a genuine pro and 100% focused on this.
