2018 was such a great year for C64, and I'm sure it'll keep getting better in 2019. Recently we published a fab list of game releases both physical and download games, and the list is crammed full of awesome games. In the article I published my list of nominees for Game of the Year, and last week I announced the winner live on Twitch.
Here's a reminder of the nominees:
- MAH (Retream / RGCD & Protovision)
- Hunters Moon Remastered (Thalamus)
- Pains n’ Aches (Psytronik)
- Shadow Switcher (Dr. Wuro)
- Space Moguls (Protovision)
- Steel Ranger (Psytronik)
Winner 2018 GOTY:
Steel Ranger (Psytronik)
It was fierce competition, but for me, Steel Ranger just edged ahead. It's an awesome Turrican style run and gun, with top class game mechanics and a modern AAA game feel. Fab graphics, smooth scrolling, huge levels, boss battles and metroid-like power ups. Lasse Öörni did a top class job on the coding, graphics and music, the box art from Trevor Storey and packaging from Psytronik screams quality.
Below are links to get all the nominated games.
