I’ve got my A1200 (with PiStorm) running on dual displays. WHDLOAD stuff works fine as it auto detects the monitor. If I try an ADF of OctaMed, Sonix, Deluxe Paint etc. it tries it on the HDMI display and doesn’t display correctly so won’t work. Can I choose the monitor?

The #C64 A to Z

My Fave ‘A’ Games – No.8

Arkanoid 2

This superb sequel takes the brilliance of Arkanoid and dials everything up — faster action, smarter enemies, extra weapons and dozens of cool new levels. With slick graphics and loads of addictive arcade action, it’s an excellent conversion.

🕹C64 Game of the Day🕹
Stormbringer (1987) by David Jones and Paul Freeman, published by Mastertronic. The fourth and final episode in the popular Magic Knight series. Pretty much the same gameplay as previously and just as entertaining. #C64GameOfTheDay #Commodore64 #C64

2025 - aside from family and friends, you can take a long walk off a short pier.

Seriously, let’s go back to the 80s.

I made this. It might warm your heart, at least that was my goal when I made it.

I can’t do more than this…
