Solar Jetman found
November
03 News
Sorry about the lack of updates here at
PeeknPoke (sadly had some bad news) but it's back and better than ever.
First some good news it looks like Solar
Jetman has been found for the C64. This unreleased game by what was one of
the better C64 coding teams, Software Creations (Bubble Bobble, Bionic
Commandos) sees a conversion
from a NES cart no less, taking basic ideas from Thrust with more elements
thrown into the bag and it is complete rather than a mess of code. What
was already a smashing game on the NES looks even better in Commodore
code.
Frank Gasking from the
Games that Weren't
website is the man to thank for all this and this could get an internet
release before Xmas. Cor! Thursting action as the snow hits the windows
this winter. Bliss.
