My favourite C64 Shoot ‘em ups – No.21

Mutants

Ocean 1987

Cool, psychedelic graphics, fantastic Fred Gray SIDs, superbly designed & very original, Mutants is a bit of a forgotten gem. Challenging & compelling, it’s a reminder that Ocean published some highly innovative titles.

"You have never experienced Shakespeare until you have read him in the original Klingon."

Keystone Kapers. Best enjoyed on the C64. 😉

My favourite C64 Shoot ‘em ups – No.23

Killerwatt

Alligata 1983

This early Tony Crowther game is a zippy zapper with nice animation, smooth scrolling & great gameplay. It was the favourite game of my old mucker and C64 buddy Mick, who tragically passed away earlier this year.

Since Space Invaders, shoot em ups have been a staple of videogaming, & in the 80s the genre was massively popular. With its scrolling & sprite capabilities, the C64 was the perfect platform for a shooter & it hosted dozens of brilliant ones during its heyday. Here are my Top 20.

After an Ultima IV weekend on the virtual Apple II, it's an Ultima III weekend on the virtual C64! 👍 (I'd already done this earlier in the year, but managed to delete my screenshots like a complete pleb.) 😋 I still love that little adventurers vs dragon fight at the bottom. 😄
