Retrogaming of the 8 and 16 bit variety. That's my jam. 😎

I freaking love Pogo Joe. 👍
It's the perfect way to take a fun, but frustratingly short, game like Q*Bert, and expand it into something with a decent play-time on a home computer.
And he's always happy. 😁

The game itself plays exactly the same as far as I can tell. And it looks like you can even do two-player co-op and two-player adversarial games if you can work out a second mouse. ..I think I've just got to get the Amiga MOD music playing in the background and I'll be happy. 😁

The front-end all looks to be pretty similar. Some more subtle shading and less-saturated colours on the DOS port. 🤔 I really wish I could work out how to get the Gravis Ultrasound sound working, cos I despise Soundblaster MIDI music with a passion. But theres that SVGA option..

In the intro it's all pretty subtle. There's a little cropping top and bottom in the DOS version, due to the lower vertical resolution. The sprites and sound seem to be unchanged, but all the backgrounds look like they've have a bit of subtle refresh and enhance. Nice. 👍

But now I've been checking out "The Settlers." Which is an excellent wee medieval Sim City-ish game, with more of a focus on roads, mines, and a little combat. The DOS version, though lacking the music I love, has used the extra colours and resolution well. (Amiga then DOS pics.)

It was so long ago that I read the instructions that I can't remember why anything is done. 😁 But half the game is working out which weapon is most effective against the residents of each zone. The maze is a race to get in, deposit the pieces, and get out before enemies appear.

I can't be the only one who hears the music in his head whenever they see screenshots of this game, right?
🎵 da da-da da!

..and the Apple II too, of course.
(It's a good reminder of how much less of an imposition multi-load stuff was on the Apple II when you see how quick levels load on it, after playing Karateka on the C64.) 😁
