Rogue 4K
Rogue4k is a minimalistic Rogue-ish game in under 4000 bytes for the The C64 ‘Cassette 50‘ Charity Competition.
The compo is now over and the game is released and can be downloaded as a PRG-file, or played in the browser on this page.
Cassette 50 was an infamous collection of games published by Cascade in 1983 and an early example of shovelware, marketed on the basis of sheer quantity rather than the quality or playability of its games.
This competition is about creating a brand new compilation tape – with any proceeds to be donated to charity – featuring games by C64 developers of all levels of experience, focusing on great gameplay in a mini-game format while still retaining the look or feel of a Cassette 50 game, such as it was!
