Nothing beats waking up reading the comment of woodo, the creator of the famous fairlight crackto, on my blog article about how I disassembled his masterpiece. https://t.co/m7Rzt551qq

EMPIRE STRIKES BACK on #COMMODORE64 (by Megastyle, 2022)

C64 port of the 1982 game by The Parker Brothers. Very well made and has impressive screen scrolling as well as SID renditions of the movie soundtrack.

@MarkRJones1970 It kinda is one of the earlier Amiga games (1989). It could have problems with the memory expansion. My Amiga had a separate switch to disable it as quite a few games had similar issues. So in the config just go for the 512k base mem without the additional 512k of slow mem.

I’ve been a bit quiet on Retro for the last few weeks due to Real Life but, I was going though some notes today and found they were on the back of copied letters…

We chained Graham in our Puddle in-house laboratory (aka the dungeon) and won't let him out until he's finished the sequel of "The Bear Essentials", so... great, greater "The Great Outdoors" #C64 #retrogame #8bit #itscoming https://t.co/LAQMH9YugM

There's going the extra mile with your testimony to Infocom, and then there's going the extra parsec

[Matty @zagrebista]

Hibernated is one of those new-games-for-old-platforms that managed to "get" what it was that made the well-loved old games actually work, rather than just copying the aesthetics and hoping for the best

[puddlesoft @puddlesoft]

Holy cow this looks so amazing, doesn't it? We're damn happy to keep the #Infocom spirit alive 🙌

[Stefan Vogt @8bit_era]

Thrilled to announce that the first physical editions of Hibernated 1 Director's Cut are now arriving for those who pre-ordered it. There is plenty of stock available. If you're into Infocom and interactive fiction, you won't want to miss this. https://t.co/eQtSd1x8d7 *a thread*

[Stefan Vogt @8bit_era]

The #PunyInform BuildTools v1.4 are out! Most prominent change is that I recovered and provided the functionality to bundle games using Infocom's late Atari 8-bit multidisk interpreter, allowing Atari 8-bit games making use of the Z-machine's v3 full 128k! https://t.co/rUmsCxHjhv

[Stefan Vogt @8bit_era]

Hibernated 1 Director's Cut Release 10 is out now. It just adresses a minor issue which so far never occured out there in the wild but it also comes with a two disk interpreter for the Atari 8-bit which many of you might remember back from the day. https://t.co/09O5UspmRy

[polyplay @polyplay_xyz]

»Night Knight« by @reidrac - which already appeared for #MSX computers - has been released as a #commodore #C64 port by @Chick2Disk. The game is now available for pre-order: https://t.co/Zl5SGeFxMo

[puddlesoft @puddlesoft]

Wow, what a run! https://t.co/Wcer7ROJx0

[Stefan Vogt @8bit_era]

I seriously have tears in my eyes. Today, Hibernated 1 Director's Cut won the legendary Sizzler Award in the Zzap!64 magazine issue #5. The game now won ALL awards of the British 80s cult magazines: Sizzler (Zzap!64), AMTIX Accolade (AMTIX/CPC) and Crash Smash (Crash/Spectrum)!

Who loves it when adventure games responded to a rude input?
