Bionik Granny Returns
Release date: 22 August 2010
Programming: Richard
Graphics: Richard, Johan, Kenz
Music: Richard
Genre: Arcade - Beat 'em Up
Tape Loader: Thunderload (Fake Visiload version)

Back in 1984, Granny was waiting outside the school gates, waiting to clobber the brats who were responsible for making her life a misery.

Now 26 years later after her hard earned rest, SHE'S BACK. The cantankerous old lady is on a little adventure, which is to go out into town and grab her pension from out of the local post office. Unfortunately for her, the town's full of pushers and shovers. Not only is this bad for her - she's very annoyed. She finds herself in a situation where modern society seems to be too much for her. So she puts on her blue raincoat, picks up her walking cane and gets ready to go out and clobber the poor folk.

Using (or emulating) a joystick in port 2, help Granny clobber passers by with her cane - to retrieve coins. To be able to release a coin, granny must clobber at least five people. If a coin is visible, she can keep clobbering folk and then after the coin has disappeared, she can clobber five people again to release a new coin. Then when a coin has appeared, quickly help Granny grab it. You are not against time in this level. So if you want to do a load of clobbering to boost up your score, then that's what you can do. Out to stop Granny are some people and other beings, throwing or shooting hazards. Avoid those at all costs. After each level has been successfully completed, you will move on to the bonus round. This is where you will have to help the old lady cross the road and enter a building to grab her pension - otherwise something daft will happen. Complete all 8 levels to win the game.

Blastopia DX
Release date: 21 June 2019
Programming: Richard
Graphics: Saul Cross
Music/Sound Effects: Richard
Tape loader: Zap 'n Load, Turbo loader by Martin Piper

INSTRUCTIONS:

Planet Earth had close encounters by alien ships. They pop down to the zoos, parks and many other places and captured all the camels. Scientists discovered that the much loved beasts are being carried to various obscure planets. Aliens have captured aliens, to make a powerful weapon which can destroy planet Earth. The Prime Minister has called a plucky brave hero to take on those nasty aliens with the aid of piloting Blastopia. Unfortunately it is of course you.

Your mission is to enter each of the 8 alien planets. Do battle against full fleets. For every full fleet you battle, a camel will fall to its death. You must rescue the camel before it is no more. If you miss any camels, don't worry, you can still keep on blasting aliens, scoring points. Once your camel quota has exceeded, you music land safely on to the launchpad to destroy the alien planet. Watch out for the scrolling background, laser gates and aliens. They will sap your shield. Once your shield has run out BOOM, you're toast. Luckily the ship can rebuild itself - but only a limited number of times it can do that.

BLASTOPIA DX is an official entry to the RGCD 16KB Cart game competition. This version is the TND release of the same production. Featuring TND intro with greetings, faster depacking on .D64 and TAP versions. For the original 16KB cartridge version and versions of the game without intro, please check out:

Genre: Arcade - Breakout
Tape Loader: Thunderload by Martin Piper

You are an alien, who has been captured and you are now trapped in a space cell. You want to escape, but in order to do this, you need to complete a task. That particular task is to simply blap the ball with your spacebat and clear each intergalactic zone from all of the bricks. Simply by bashing at them. Aliens will appear and are pretty much helpful. Watch out for the red zone. Should the ball hit a red zone, a shield will be lost. Once all shields are down, a life will be lost. Bonuses will be scored with any remaning shields left after level completion. Collect power ups, and have loads of fun.

Collect power ups, but watch out - some power ups give very weird effects. Features brand new music, apart from the in game trance power up and ending (I wanted to keep it that way. Heheheh!)

Bomb Chase 2009 - Special Edition
Release date: 1 January 2009
Programming: Richard
Graphics: Richard, Johan Janssen
Music: Richard
Genre: Arcade - Collect and Avoid
Tape Loader:  Freeload (Source available from www.pauliehughes.co.uk)

A final version of the Bomb Chase game - 100% working, no errors or crashes, a game options screen and a few additional enhancements. Newer and better music + SFX option and plenty of levels to keep you gamers amused. Help Smudge gather enough bombs to advance on to the very next level, but the little fellow has to watch out. Those monsters and moving walls make his life more tougher. Avoid crashing into the walls, and monsters. Also try to avoid getting yourself into a tight spot, otherwise monsters will get you. Don't dither about for too long. Those bombs will explode if you're too late.

This game was inspired by Frogger and also Alternative Software's Slug. Although I guess this game has a kind of bomberman style to it, where the player can drop mines and let them go off. :o)



 


Brain Strain

Programming: Richard
Graphics: Richard (Porting and editing)
Music: Richard
Genre: Puzzle - Guessing
Tape Loader: Dance-A-Load/Martyload

This is a game for one or two player, sort of based on Coined by Slash Design, but instead of taking away coins, you take away numbers. The game starts where you have a pot with the total number of credits. Either yourself, your opponent or a computer will take it in turns to take a chosen number of credits away. If you are left with 4 credits, and can take them all away, you will win. However if you are left with LESS than 4 credits left in the pot, then you will forefit the round. The winner is the first player to score 3 points.
