See early beginnings of ideas that eventually went into Gremlin's Super Cars. These are early concepts on the C64 produced by artist Andrew Morris for a game called Speed Sprinter, which GTW once recovered from Andrew's art disks.

My Favourite C64 Software Houses No.37

Martech

Okay, Sam Fox Strip Poker wasn’t a classic but Martech did release some great C64 games. Crazy Comets, Mega Apocalypse & Uchi Mata were ace & I liked Zoids too (TBH I didn’t really know what was going on but the music was amazing!)

I became a huge fan especially of the Space Hulk universe. The last video game Space Hulk Tactics was amazing but screwed it. 5 month after release they shut down the mp-servers 🤬 without leaving any explanation.

I know you luv C64. The good old Brotkasten ;)

My Favourite C64 Software Houses No.40

The Edge

Mostly associated with the Spectrum, The Edge directly ported a few Speccy games to the 64, including the excellent Fairlight & Bobby Bearing. Other highlights include Inside Outing, Wizardry and the shoot ‘em up R.I.S.K.

World Class Leaderboard really did feel like the ultimate evolution of the series (16bit and arcade ports aside.) From a basic grass/water flat landscape these were now real golf courses in the wee C64.

Never played Strike. But we were to get 10th Frame later anyway. 😄

C64 controls: after the cracktro/trainer, numpad 84620. Press up at pages to enter them - but each only accepts a certain character.

Dr Strange was only in the graphics for the US versions of the Hulk for some reason. Below is the extracted graphics from the Atari, C64 and PC versions:

I didn't know Leviathan made it to the arcades.
I only knew it from the C64. It's a pretty game. If only they'd stuck with the same control system as Zaxxon, it would have been excellent fun. But making the ship turn makes it impossible to manoeuvre and shoot simultaneously. 😐

My mind went back to a game I played on the C64. A Mastertronic published game simply called "Ninja."
Not only did the gameplay seem quite similar, but the level layout seemed much the same. And wouldn't you know it, it's written by the same software team: "Sculptured Software".
