After the Majesty of Sprites more majesty comes from the often overlooked ugly stepchild of the Commodore range, the Plus 4 in the form of Dork Dave. This new game is a somewhat Mario inspired platformer, that runs not only on the Plus 4, but the even more modest C16 model. It looks pretty neat and even features parallax scrolling!
The stunning Commodore Plus 4 homebrew game Majesty of Sprites is due for a physical release on disk, thanks to Psytronic software. When? Erm, soon, it would seem, but theres's no exact date.
The game was originally released for the Evoke 2015 party, winning an undeservedly low 3rd place in the interactive competition. Hopefully this new release, which comes as either the standard disk version or as an inevitable deluxe version, will make up for it's slightly overlooked original debut.
If you haven't seen or played the game, it's well worth a look. It makes hugely impressive use of the Plus 4's somewhat limited capabilities, with graphics that could be mistaken for a much more powerful platform.
