I always suspected great things were possible with the C16's (Plus/4's) 121 colour palette. It just needed a half-decent image converter, this one is coming along nicely. CharPad C16 Pro coming soon. subchristsoftware.itch.io (original image by Eran Fowler) #C64 #C16 #PixelArt

FREEZE64 #53 is currently in the proof-reading stage... but here's a quick spoiler preview. Unfortunately Twitter only gives me 2 mins, and so I skipped a couple of pages. Not bad for 1min59sec! Another issue PACKED with delicious #Commodore64 #C64 content
