Title: NEW COMMODORE VIC-20 GAME RELEASE - Avalanche (2012)
Post by: revivalstudios on October 16, 2012, 22:14:11 PM
Avalanche is a fun action game people can just pickup and play. The player has to shoot the various gems that are falling down from the top of the screen.
The gems are marked with symbols and the player has to match up the symbol of his ship with the symbol on the gems.

Game features:
- Available on Tape and as Digital Download
- Runs on the unexpanded Commodore VIC-20

Thanks for the comment.

Not a bad idea! Believe it or not, this game is very accessable / easy to pick up. There it is very popular amongst females and/or kids (i did a version of this game on other systems like the videopac). My girlfriend doesnt play all of my games, but she sure likes this one.

I'm glad to see a new game. With the holidays coming, one has to be creative with spreading the money around.

Thanks for posting the screenshots and maybe after the first of the year I will be playing.

Best of Luck on what looks like a really nice game!!!

Looks great indeed, but this one might cost me 1 or 2 joysticks in the end ;D
