Plekthora (2021) (C64) New Shoot 'em Up
Here's a quick look at a neat little shoot 'em up for the Commodore 64 released a few days back, coded by DrMortalWombat who apparently created it after a 35 year hiatus, so hats off to him! Plekthora is a classic horizontal space themed shooter and features three different and upgradeable weapons, couch coop and 20 levels of action. Plus....
*Generous placement of power ups and bonus lives
*Score multiplier for hyperinflated high scores
*Tested on real stock C64 hardware from the days ... but works fine on all modern emulators too
*Uncompressed code, ideal for modding, cheating or recreational reverse engineering
Great to see new C64 games in 2021 and if yer a shmup fan give it a go, it's free too! https://drmortalwombat.itch.io/plekthora
This is running on the WinVice emulator
Give us a like if ya like! Maybe a sub for more Emulation 'n' Stuff :)
