Welcome to Plus/4 World! |  Geography Europe! | | Posted by Csabo on 2025-10-30 |
 Another new release: Hendriks just finished his first Plus/4 game written completely in machine language: Geography Europe!
You fly a helicopter over a map of Europe and have to find cities before the timer runs out. The game is similar to an older Commodore 64 game by Radarsoft.
Give it a try and don't forget to provide feedback on our forums! |

| | Green Beret C16! | | Posted by Csabo on 2025-10-29 |
 In a stunning response to the demo released today, Arlasoft dropped Green Beret C16. You can read all the technical details of the game on the itch.io homepage. This version - incredibly - still runs on 16K machines! If you want some side-scrolling action, definitely check it out! |

| | Where Is My Beret? | | Posted by Csabo on 2025-10-29 |
 Csabo asks: Where Is My Beret? If you're wondering what it is... A "demo" that should have been a forum post? A meditation on C16/Plus4 games and game conversions? The ramblings of a senile old man looking for his headgear? Probably something in between. |

| | The BDB Project Takes Off | | Posted by Luca on 2025-10-19 |
 This is something which has started weeks ago, and we silently added software and additional materials into our archive, but we're announcing it only today, when the project pushes out three new adventure games, taking off definitely.
Briefly, Gianluca Girelli and Garry Francis, with the help from other passionate fellows, started The BDB Project, whose purpose is to renew, fix, translate and port on different systems, the whole softography of Bonaventura Di Bello, a prolific Italian writer of adventure games which have been distributed by the newsstands.
Stealing an excerpt of their manifesto, they aim to: "...not only to translate the games to English, but bring them up-to-date for a modern audience. This means removing most of the sudden death, guess-the-verb, tight inventory limits, mazes, unwinnable situations and moon logic that was prevalent in the games of the 1980s, and introducing a friendlier parser with multi-word input, extended vocabulary, richer descriptions and more responses. In some cases, there are enhancements to the puzzles and/or extra puzzles...".
Today they have released Caribbean Treasure, The Wrath of Anubis and Unknown Dimension. These games are going to add up to the Kenneth Johnson's trilogy: Wild West, Tin Star and Desperados.
More of this is yet to come in the near future. If you're a classic adventureer, stay tuned.
Bonus addition: previously, Bakemono no Sekai - World of Monsters and Tempus Fugit have been added too. |

| | The Death Sector Claims Another Victim... | | Posted by Csabo on 2025-09-13 |
 You've seen the trailer, you watched the review, and after a long, long road, the game is here. Introducing Death Sector, a sci-fi themed arcade puzzler for your Commodore Plus/4 or 64K expanded C16/C116.
Your spaceship miraculously survives a crash during warp speed, and you find yourself in an unknown sector with no signs of life. Can you pilot through this desolate place, uncover its mysteries, and perhaps find a way back to safety?
Death Sector offers unique challenges and atmospheric, story-focused gameplay. Enjoy! |

| | HVTC Update September 2025 | | Posted by Luca on 2025-09-08 |
So much time had to pass, but now it's time for an update: the High Voltage TED Collection gets updated today!
We had to add 44 new song files. Most of them are from some brand new releases, with Csabo's production on top of all, but there are some footprints on the ground indicating the presence of some golden era gems. Again, we had to change a ton of files, due to some little fixes, and most of all to have "reactive" files, i.e. files needing keys to start playing: in order to make'em play even on straight emulations with no keyboard input involved, let's force'em to play at the beginning anyway.
Hey but... With this new update, we broke the thousand files! Yes, that's for real, this last pack boasts 1035 single files! happy thousand to us! All the changes have been reported in the whatsnew.txt available.
Don't forget to completely delete the whole previous collection (that's the way to do at any new update!), then download/unzip the new one!
This is the straight link to the ZIP file. |
