Kung Fu Master (C64) was a good arcade conversion.
Like 1942, it wasn't particularly flash. But it captured the feel of the arcade game quite well.

Q&A
Q. Have you ever thought about producing a covertape for FREEZE64?
A. Wow! I can’t think of a worse way to spend my hobby time… making and recording tapes… one after the other… zzzzz. Definitely a no-no.

The version I played the most was on the C64.
Apart from the different look of the tank, again, very much the same game.

Skyfox is a seriously cool game.
I think I may have seen it first on the Apple II (where the loading was much quicker.) 😉 But I definitely played it most on the C64.

C64 Spy vs Spy is still great fun.
Not many 8-bit games got across a real cartoon-y feel. I think maybe BC's Quest for Tyres (and the sequel) and this and its sequel are the only ones. 👍

(As soon as I hit "reply" I'm going to think of another great cartoon-y game.) 😉

Spiham comes 3rd at BCC#16's C64 graphics compo with "Dawn of Aliens", a very clean and crisp take on the Aliens movie. I love this one as it could very much been a real loading screen around 1988-1992. Great execution. https://t.co/NoO2sjCFGf

"Obscena Vaselina" by The Sarge, C64 multicolor. Winner of the BCC#16 graphics compo. Lots of details to explore, great piece of art. https://t.co/FCJD8FAVhd

Denton Designs’ original, absorbing & utterly brilliant FGTH game consists of a series of quirky sub-games (based around themes from the band’s songs) tied together via a murder mystery. Unique & outstanding.

Dan Dare

A fantastic arcade adventure with great cartoon strip-like graphics, brilliant puzzles, plenty of innovative and amusing touches, a brilliant laser mini-game and super-addictive gameplay. One of my absolute favourites.
