About

NewsStand is a new game for Commodore 64 (made by AGPX and Phobos), in which our hero Joseph has to collect the money in order to buy cassette tapes with the legendary games for the C64, but many enemies will try to stop him! In Italy, in the 80s, these cassettes were sold on newsstands and it was a thrill every time to return home and try them all. In memory of those magical moments, we made this video game.

Currently the "PAL - Italian" and "PAL - English" versions are available (the NTSC version has slowdown problems in some areas of the game, due to the fact that in the NTSC system we have less CPU time available to race with the rasterbeam and will not be released).

The graphics and animations are entirely made by Phobos with the C64 Graphics Maker:

Sound effects are made by Phobos with Sid Sfx Editor:

The game consists of 2 floppy disks for 1541 (A and B).

P.S.: A small fix is released (v1.0.1).
