GUNS 'N' GHOSTS CARTRIDGE AVAILABLE! (C64)

High fives all round! It has been a long time coming (the tape, disk and download versions have been available since the 14th of April from our
partners at Psytronik), but I'm super proud to announce that Georg "Endurion" Rottensteiner and Trevor "Smila" Storey's 72-level demon-smashing Commodore 64 arcade game Guns 'N' Ghosts is finally available to buy on cartridge from
our shop!

Guns 'N' Ghosts is an intense action game with a variety of play modes that offer a particularly rich two-player cooperative adventure, so grab your shotgun, ready your psychic powers, and help paranormal investigators Trev and Georg eradicate a monstrous mélange of spooks & spectres!

Featuring box art by Smila, the 64KB PCB is housed in a ghostly transparent cartridge shell illuminated by an internal LED, and the game comes complete with a printed manual and seven vinyl stickers.

The cartridge version is available in two packaging types, a standard card carton and a more expensive 'deluxe version' that comes in a plastic case (a Universal Game Case with a specially cut foam insert to hold the cartridge as shown below). The standard version is priced at £17, whereas the deluxe
version costs £22. Shipping is £4 for UK/Europe and £5 for the rest of the world. A digital version of the game will also be sent out to all customers following receipt of payment.

Please note that Pystronik Software are also selling the game on
premium/budget disk, tape and as a download for £9.99, £4.99, £3.99 and £1.99 respectively (plus shipping) via their Binary Zone Retro Store.

The even better news for cartridge fans is that whilst fixing the hardware incompatibility issue responsible for the delay, Georg managed to squeeze in one of his earlier games as an exclusive Easter egg - just check out the photos above! We will be announcing the 'secret' to loading the second game in the near future, but for those of you wanting to try and find it yourself the only hint you are going to get is that it requires one single input at a specific time. Happy hunting!

RGCD ANNOUNCEMENT JULY 2013

No word from RGCD for two months and then two emails in the same week? We try not to make a habit of spamming our mailing list, but we've been working on this particular project for so long that we just had to share the news! :)

SHEEPOID DX / WOOLLY JUMPER AVAILABLE NOW! (C64)

RGCD in association with Psytronik Software are proud to present a C64 twin-pack of games coded by Richard Bayliss of The New Dimension; Sheepoid DX and Woolly Jumper are finally available to buy on cartridge from our shop!

Sheepoid DX is a specially graphically overhauled and enhanced version of
TND's dual-axis Laser Zone tribute that was originally released by Psytronik
in 2011. Planet Earth is under attack from Space Goats and it's your mission
to wipe out the strange alien threat and save the Earth from ungulate domination!

Woolly Jumper is the full, enhanced 64K version of the game Richard originally wrote for the RGCD 16K Cartridge Compo, enhanced with proper jumping physics
by Dr. Martin "Enthusi" Wendt. Poor Pepito the sheep is lost in Mindspace, and you must help him escape from this nightmare by guiding him through 16 levels guarded by Green Martians, Space Chickens and Wiggly Worms!

Sheepoid DX and Woolly Jumper are PAL-only games, and have been confirmed working on the C64, C128 and C64GS (although a second joystick is required in port one to activate the smart bomb in Sheepoid DX). The cartridge version is available in two packaging types, a standard card carton and a more expensive 'deluxe version' that comes in a plastic case (a Universal Game Case with a specially cut foam insert to hold the cartridge as shown below). The standard version is priced at £22, whereas the deluxe version costs £27. Shipping is £4 for UK/Europe and £5 for the rest of the world. A digital version of the game will also be sent out to all customers following receipt of payment.

The cover art features illustration and design by Smila and STE'86 and the
game comes complete with a printed manual, and vinyl RGCD sticker. The 64KB
PCB is housed in classic black cartridge shell.

Grab your copy now!

Please note that Pystronik Software are also selling the game on
premium/budget disk and tape for £9.99, £4.99 and £4.99 respectively (plus shipping) via their Binary Zone Retro Store.

Thanks for reading!

C64 - FM RADIO
*************************************

Listen to your favourite radio stations on your Commodore. Timo Voutilainen connected a RDA5807 FM Radio module to the user-port of the Commodore C64. The module uses only 6 connections: GND, +5V, DAT, CLK and 2 for the audio. Timo also has written a program that controls the FM Radio.
