@fiercebeer Hi there, I have some gift vouchers purchased last year that are not recognized on the online shop. Is there anyway you can check they are still valid?

PLS RT 😊🙏 Support home-grown paper-based zines If you *love* holding a physical zine in your hand and enjoy reading about the development of some of your favourite #Commodore64 #C64 games, then please support FREEZE64. Grab a copy from: FREEZE64.com #DyingBreed

@wearejames we haven't been able to travel to the USA from the UK. So I have 2 tickets for San Francisco on the 23rd that Um happy to give away so the seats do not go empty.

@pbak_unofficial @JazRignall We did a simliar thing, seem to recall you could throw over 200 meters on the Javelin

40 years ago, Ocean's infamous joystick-destroyer Daley Thompson's Decathlon was released. This 10-event sports game tested your waggling skills, or you could simply smash your computer to bits using its keys. Either way, it was fun - but also VERY punishing for your hardware!

@FREEZE64UK @PaulieHughes One for GTW64 to track down!

@FY5 @PaulieHughes I think it’s a C64 version that was never released…

I’ve just been reading You Computer magazine from September 1984, and I spotted *this* strange screenshot… “Road Frog by courtesy of Ocean Software”? 🤔 Hmmmm… it looks like a #Commodore64 game, but did Ocean ever release Road Frog for the #C64?

@FREEZE64UK @PaulieHughes Looks like one of the games the released between the changed from Spectrum Games and Ocean Software, as quick search only brings up the Oric version as an Ocean games, the Spectrum one is a Spectrum Games title

@PaulieHughes Yeah — I was thinking it could only be the Oric version… it’s just… if you look at the Oric screenshots, it looks nothing like that. Plus — the colours do suggest a C64 version… 🤔

@JazRignall And we did get to meet Archer Mclean and Andrew Braybrook! x.com/UridiumAuthor/…

@JazRignall That was my teen years, spending the summer holidays around the arcades of Blackpool. A magical time when we would see the latest game first. Alas the remaning arcades are now full of ticket redemtion machines

40 years ago, this is what Blackpool looked like. During the Golden Age of arcades, the Golden Mile was jam-packed with cavernous halls featuring every coin-op you could think of. It really was the Northern Mecca for gamers. I mean, just look at the size of some of these arcades!

@tonywarriner BBC micro PSU

10 bonus Tony points if you know what this is😎

@mdf200 Nice monitor! A lot of those iiyama monitors use a Diamondtron crt, which is Mitsubishi clone of Sony's Trinitron so the display should be very crisp

Got me a new 17” CRT!! Lovely image on it too!! Just need to get some ATI drivers installed…

@UridiumAuthor From what I have seen, the new FX are still physical but they look almost chi compared to the 1970s sequence's

So looking forward to this!

@MuseumCommodore Or licensed Pacman in Japan!

Did you play Jelly Monsters on your Commodore VIC-20?

@TheRetroAsylum @THEC64_RGL Availble to preorder at £89.99 smythstoys.com/uk/en-gb/gamin…

@KevEdwardsRetro Wishing you all the best Kevin, loved reading your dev stories from back in the day. Hopefully this just au revoir.

Goodbye for now. I’ve got other priorities at the moment. Thanks for following and interacting with me over the years. TTFN

Ok who left something lying on the delete key during boot?
