Rob Plays "Hover Bovver" (C64)
22A brief play (with review/commentary) of Hover Bovver, released by Llamasoft all the way back in 1983. This gameplay footage was captured under emulation with VICE 2.4 running on Mac OS X.
Lawnmowing? Fun? Certainly can be as none other than Jeff Minter shows. It's quite charming in it's own unique way, and one I rather dig on a few levels. Simple, arcade-esque fun from the early days of the machine.
Also, if you want to try it out for yourself, you can grab it from the Llamasoft archive at: http://www.llamasoftarchive.org
