WE DON’T DO REVIEWS! It has been a long time coming, but we finally get the chance to review the cute platformer called Tiny Quest from the Digital Monastery team… the only problem is, WE DON’T DO REVIEWS!
DISCOVERING WINNING STREAK We recently had a telephone chat with pixel artist Jonathan (Smyth) Temples where he revealed how he once tried his hand at C64 programming and ended up creating a game that never was. You’ll get to read the full story and listen in on the conversation as to how the game was finally released into the C64 scene.
NEW & EXCLUSIVE POKES ‘N’ CODES Back in issue 43 we reviewed the fab arcade platformer Runn ‘n’ Gunn, and now it’s time to hack the code and share a few exclusive POKES ‘n’ CODES for you all to play with. We have some exclusive features such as Fly Mode, Walk Through Walls, and we also give you the chance to access a Keycard at any point during the game with a list of POKES that code in a key-press cheat.
