Oh, great to hear that there are others who remember Hypa-Ball.

I agree, the music was wonderful and playing the game with a friend was a blast! The game's rules were pretty original too. I'd love to see an updated version of this game someday.

And thanks for the welcome, it's a nice site!

There was a Mastertronic game on the C64 called Majik which I absolutely loved. It was an icon-driven adventure jobbie that had a fantastic atmosphere.

Bounces (Denton Designs I think) was a great game as well. I think I got it on a Zzap megatape, but I remember me and a couple of mates spending the entire summer playing it. 8)

Yeah, Bounces!
One of the best 2-player games on the C64. Absolutely fab indeed! :D

Hello everyone, new to Yakyak but a long lasting fan of Jeffs...

Fox Fights Back! I adored it, esp. when the Fox got his machine gun and went on hind legs. I had the C64 version which was amazing, my mates all had the Speccy version and used to tear it apart. I never found out how bad the Speccy one was until years later...

That's sad. I've actually downloaded the ROM since I wrote this and I'd still put it in my top five games Ever!
