Some good news for #C64 fans.
Well, good news if you like simple casual games that are just 'daft as a brush'.

#EatYerGreens is back in development. I hope to release in January.

Mega thanks to fellow Megastyle member, Geir Straume for helping me get this back on track.

Do you love #C64?

Do you love Wordle (I do!)?

Well, if that's yes x 2, then let me tell you some news.

I have just released my first C64 game in quite a while. Go get #Birdle while it's hot.

Another daft Megastyle release.

Enjoy. Or not. I kinda enjoyed making it.

Amazing effort this year. Fantastic work Frank 🫡
We’re now done for the year. Time to play games + catch up reading. Thanks everyone for the kindness and support this year. If you’d like to help the project recover more lost pieces of history, simply spreading the word really helps.

Take care, and all the best for 2026!

Superb work from @gamesthatwerent.com as ever - and if you ever wondered what Bombo would look like in its early guise of Rooster Booster (was Mark Greenshields haunted by the Paxo stuffing advert?) along with Sooty and Sweep 2, you've come to the right place.
Our final Commodore 64 update for 2025, with some huge recoveries including full unreleased versions of Sooty and Sweep 2, Thomas The Tank Engine 2. Protos of Paddle Mania, Rooster Booster, Spindizzy and Kick Off 2 + a lot more. Enjoy! (1/7)

Falcon Patrol was another of those early #Commodore64 #C64 games that I couldn’t wait to feature. And at the same time I chatted with Ken Grant about Exterminator 64, Bump Set Spike, Battle Through Time, and Pacos Pete.

I've created a couple of Xmas themed #C64 games, one of which is Snow Force, a snowy version of Soul Force. Snow Force also includes Soul Force X, an updated version with 2nd button support. Snow Force is on sale right now (along with my other games). sarahjaneavory.itch.io/snow-force-c64

Here is my flex fix for the Commodore 64 Ultimate Starlight.

Please let me know how it is. It fits the beige perfect, but might need some small adjustments for the Starlight. I tried to take into account the LED strip and extra connectors on the Starlight.

I can verify that the @atari.com CX30+ Paddle controllers work great on the Commodore 64 Ultimate!

If you’re a fan of games like LEMANS on the C64 you’ll be in for a treat!

I love this game
