Fresh Homebrew: Moonspire (Commodore 64)

Exploration heavy shooters aren't very common on the Commodore 64 these days, and the freshly released and even more freshly boxed Moonspire is here to fix this horrible problem. It's a pretty huge game sporting 264 screens of clever action and atmospheric graphics spread over six levels, a lovely soundtrack, three weapons, a ton of options, and a very intriguing premise. The game was developed by Dušan Milivojević and Ari "agemixer" Yliaho, and published by RGCD.

You can buy a complete boxed and very impressive copy of Moonspire here, and have the game on a cartridge with manual and everything. A cheaper, downloadable version is available on itch.io.
