A new game for the c64!
I will quote Indie Game´s review on the part that got my attention:
QuoteThe game is a procedurally generated flick-screen shmup/platformer that plays a bit like the classic Cybernoid, featuring impressively huge maps, a multitude of enemies and more than a few bosses. Somehow, all this has been crammed into 16 mere kilobytes of memory.

The original was called Snow Bros, the Spectrum remake is called Speccy Bros. Also they're snowmen, not bunnies. =D

Ok, Rudiesco, I put bunnies, but it´s true are SnowMen...  But the game it´s very very cool...

Thanks for clear!!!  :good:

I never tried snow bros, so people made a modern zx spectrum version?
I enjoy Nightmare in the Dark (neo geo) which I guess is kind of similar.

The retro efforts of people nowadays is quite awesome!
I wish I could get ZAKU from the Super Fighter Team.

Yup. Since the Spectrum, or any 8-bit computer for that matter, didn't get a conversion some spaniards went and fixed that up (there's a quite noticeable retro community in Spain, mainly centered around the Spectrum).

Yep not only retro but their homebrew is outstanding too.

Here is a video of nightmare in the dark in case people don´t know.
It is a quite beautiful game, great animations and outstanding soundtrack (2players too), don´t miss.
