Out On A Limb, Commodore 64
I read on a forum recently someone saying that the Commodore 16 version of Out On A Limb “smashed” the Commodore 64 version. LOL. This – I can confirm – is a load of old b*llocks – the C64 version is clearly better on all fronts…
Out On A Limb, Commodore 16/Plus4
Out On A Limb is a Jack and the Beanstalk-inspired platform game published by Anirog Software in 1984.

POD: Proof of Destruction, Commodore 16/Plus4
POD: Proof Of Destruction is another decent bullet hell shooter on the C16, and another game designed and programmed by the prolific Shaun Southern.

Timeslip, Commodore 16/Plus4
Created by Jon Williams (the guy responsible for the Berks series), Timeslip is an interesting side-scrolling shooter with the screen split into three distinct horizontal sections.
Mercenary, Commodore 16/Plus4
Requiring 64K of RAM to run, and coded by Paul Woakes himself, Mercenary on the Plus4 is an almost perfect conversion of his classic 3D, C64 exploration game.
Berks 3, Commodore 16/Plus4
Another Berks game – this one Berks 3 – written by Jon Williams and released in 1985.
Baby Berks, Commodore 16/Plus4
Another Berks game, again released in 1985 and programmed by Jon Williams for CRL Group Ltd.
Baby Berks is very similar to the first Berks, only this time the Berks have become the chasing enemies, and your targets (to shoot) are the Baby Berks that hatch from eggs.
Major Blink, Commodore 16/Plus4
Berks, Commodore 16/Plus4
Written by UK-based coder Jon Williams and published in 1985 by CRL Group Ltd., Berks is an entertaining and challenging overhead shooter with colourful graphics. In some respects it is a tribute to Berzerk, but with more going on.
