Cheers guys  ...
Just a worry, but if its starting to get annoying with me posting each time I do an update, please let me know.. as i'll limit it down to once a month or something and inform that there have been several over a space of a few weeks if people would prefer that?
Oh and Lee.. Hektik on the Vic is just bloody awesome. If you get a chance, check out 3D Silicon Fish too  _________________ |

I have checked the two GTW games out. The "Extreme Force" preview is not that easy for me to play. It looks kind of nice and mighty big. It would have been nice to see the game finished.
Flubble & Squij V2. It's awesome. Great music, nice addition to the graphics, and the sprites look even amusing to make this game enjoyable. Feekzoid has done an excellent job with the music. However, I feel that this game would have been nice, released commercially through Cronosoft or something like that. I would have definitely bought the game  Or it would have been great on the Commodore Scene cover disk. But it is not up to me.
Well done to Kev, for doing an excellent game  & Paul H for doing the atmospheric music. _________________ The New Dimension

Hi Steve,
I did get your email, and I should have replied to it too... but I apologise if I forgot to.
I did a search for the name in the Cannock area, but sadly no luck. I'll keep trying though, and add his name to the Where? page (If I haven't already). _________________ |

A special mini update tonight...
Two exclusive newly found GTW titles uploaded tonight...
http://cs.c64.org
(*) Liberation - A very early cool Turrican clone by Profile Ent. (Aka Camelot) + graphic shows + sprites and editor.
(*) Car Racer V1
- Another preview of Car Racer, this time with split screen. Plus a "Creator Speaks" page added.
More is on its way... We've had a bit of a flood of titles found recently, so i'm trying my best to get most out as quick as possible.
Enjoy anyway!  _________________ |
