  • Volley for Two - new C128 game!

    From rbernardo@iglou.com@3:770/3 to All on Saturday, September 26, 2020 14:04:06
    bjonte has just released the teaser trailer for the upcoming C128 game Volley For Two! See

    https://kollektivet.nu/v42/

    It has been years since the last C128 game has been released commercially, and it looks as if this one will be distributed on https://itch.io
    And it makes use of REU, GeoRAM, or SuperCPU ram for extended playback viewing! :)

    Hello Robert!

    Wow! Looks like a fun game! Thanks for sharing! I look forward to playing it in two weeks when it is released. The C128 was long neglected because of the popularity of the C64. So it is hard to find good programs and games for the C128. Or at least a
    huge diverse choice like there is with the C64.

    The developer tells me it's going to be free! He couldn't stand filling out the forms for the US Internal Revenue Service!

    Not to forget it supports **DUAL SCREENS** on the C128!!! Amazing little often overlooked feature! Wish we could see more of this!
