C64 Launcher Re-vamp
Giving the C64 Arcade Launcher a Re-vamp...
How does this look for the new main menu ? Been playing with it most of the day so hopefully its looking a little more interesting and brings it more inline with the Amiga Arcade Launcher.. |

Are you adding more games? Like Black Hawk, One on One and Times of Lore.

Depends on your monitor...No two are the same...even using exact colour codes wouldnt help....on mine its close...but when it comes to menus, Websites you can only use RGB as a rough guide....If they were flyers then the printers would ask for the codes to get it exact...
Ye lots more games Last edited by prowler; 23 July 2012 at 22:09. Reason: Back-to-back posts merged. |

Yep, it will be, although I would change the color and shape of the keys (breadbox style) as Methanoid said.

Just like (the photo) the C=64 where I'm writting now...
They don't look the same, at least they should be more separated, and they aren't vertical on their sides, but just my opinion. Edit: Another game to add: Project Firestart [ Show youtube player ] Last edited by Retrofan; 25 July 2012 at 12:00. |

I'm at present playing about with the c64 demoscene, some stunning things have came from this machine. Have also tried out "c64 forever" as well and it's basically a front end for Vice. I prefer your easy on the eye frontend.
What would be a rather neat idea is to add a few extra's.... Couple of Vic 20, c128, Pet games and a way to run them from the emulator front end.. but make em hard to find (i.e. Easter Eggs) - just for giggles Last edited by PaulyQ; 02 August 2012 at 12:42. Reason: typo |
