A Journey Through Pixels and Sound: The life of a Commodore 64 Enthusiast

In the vast digital expanse of modern technology, there exists a realm where nostalgia and innovation converge seamlessly—the world of the Commodore 64. For nearly four decades, I traversed this landscape with unwavering dedication, crafting a legacy defined by passion, creativity, and an indomitable spirit. This is the story of me, a hobby game developer, a spare time artist and musician.

Since the early days of computing, I was captivated by the mesmerizing glow of the Commodore 64's screen. With each keystroke, I embarked on a journey of discovery, navigating the intricate circuits of this iconic machine with boundless curiosity.

What began as a mere fascination soon blossomed into a lifelong devotion, as I delved deeper into the realm of programming, eager to unlock its limitless potential.

I wrote a bunch of small games back in the days. With my debut release here on itch.io , "Diamond Dave," I want to pay homage to one of the greatest puzzle games of all time, "Boulder Dash." It is a labour of love, a culmination of years of dedication and passion poured into every line of code, every pixel, and every single sound. You want to learn more about the project, see how I created the levels, sprites and cover art? Just visit my dev blog where I will publish my coding diary for this project.
