Love my Stand Up Gaming Pixel Memories "Project Firestart" diorama he made for me. Though we don't have a ton of C64 news, it's good to hear from you Louie!
That joystick is the one I always would have wanted as a kid!!! I hated the joysticks that were around, and just used a Master System pad to play C64 games in the end.
@@RetroGamerNation I am pretty sure someone did make something similar in the 80’s. The way that it worked was that you had your normal button on the base your joystick, and this thing was a separate module that was a removable sleeve that went over the top of the joystick and had its own cable that went to the other joystick port. You could not use it with just any joystick… It fit only on top of its companion joystick. I don’t know what the logic was for that, but I do remember you had to take it off because the cable would get in the way sometimes if you were not using it. Forgive me I was probably 10 years old at the time so my memory is a little hazy, but I definitely remember the way it worked and that it was black with yellow buttons. In my mind it looked like the Gemini Gemstik And the sleeve went on top of the Atari style stick part giving it a trigger button. Maybe it was just a fever dream because I’ve never seen it anywhere these days. Thanks for a cool video!
@@RetroGamerNationgood luck! I hope I don’t accidentally lead you on a wild goose chase! ( I could be went about the color … my friends went through a lot of different joysticks over the years )
Craptacular! Thanks for the round up again! Slim pickings then but the look at all the games from the Craptastic competition is much appreciated! Some fun original ideas there even.
That joystick looks awesome, great idea to have space-bar as a button

Project Firestart model, that would look great I bet. Cheers for the support Adam

Always such funny and creative games get made for the craptastic jam, love it!
Great idea with the joystick, can’t believe nobody thought of this back in the day. Thanks for uploading another great video
The double cable idea for the joystick feels so obvious and I am surprised they never did something for it back in the day.

You've got me intrigued. I might ask around to see if anyone else has recollections of it. Cheers.

That ninja baby carriage game looks brilliant considering the 4kB limit.
That chip tune is sick af!
Another nice roundup :) Thank you !
Tsunami Tōsō looks brilliant and very Limbo like! I'd love to see that as a full-scale game with just a little more variety in gameplay.
It's definitely the most aesthetically pleasing to my eyes, and I really like the atmospheric SID tune
Omg that Act Natural game by Goerp is hilarious
That controller looks good, pity they're all left handed.
Is there something like a "every modern c64 game worth playing" rom pack anywhere
Spelunky!
My word, slim Pickens.
Thanks!
Stick rocks and so does your monitor.
Can't beat a quality Sony PVM, so sharp compared to a 1084
What's that tune @1:25?
It’s excellent I’d like to know too
@@barriemain It sounds like 'Atom Unstable' mentioned in the description, but I don't think that's quite it.
The tune playing in the background is called TND Intro 2010 by the talented Richard Bayliss - csdb.dk/release/?id=93327
@@RetroGamerNation Cool, thank you! And thanks for your wonderful roundups. I've been a fan for years.
