VIGILANTE: In 1988 a lone hero took to the streets in order to defeat an evil street gang. A superb arcade beat 'em up from Irem this also got ported to several home formats, did you ever clean up downtown New York City?

My Favourite C64 Coders No.48

Peter Baron

Peter wasn’t prolific, but what he lacked in quantity, he made up for in quality. C64 Salamander is awesome, & Myth: History in the Making is one of the finest platformers of the 80s & both were massive 94% ZZAP! Sizzlers. A class act.

My Favourite C64 Coders No.49

Mike Singleton

The C64 wasn’t Mike’s main machine but I couldn’t do a list of great 80s coders without mentioning him. He had a hand in the C64 conversions of Lords of Midnight & Doomdark’s Revenge and co-coded Quake Minus One. RIP Mike. A genius.

My Favourite C64 Coders No.50

Tony Pomfret

In just two years, Tony put his stamp on the C64 games world by coding six titles for the old breadbin. Hysteria for Software Projects, Mikie for Imagine & Firefly & Hunchback II: Quasimodo's Revenge for Ocean are my three favourites.

Marc Dawson

Marc started out at Imagine, making BC Bill in 1984 before moving to Thor in 85 & coding the quirky Stairways. Staying in the Liverpool area, he then worked at Odin where he authored Hypa-Ball & the excellent Mission AD & Robin of the Wood.
