Another great day for the C64 community, as we've just been told by Antonio Savona, that the same team behind the Atari to C64 conversion of Chopper Command, Keystone Kapers and the excellent Wintry game of Frostbite. Has announced the release of the next game in the conversion line up, as the classic game 'Crackpots'; A game originally released by Dan Kitchen for the Atari 2600, and published by Activision way back in 1983!


According to the wikipedia for Crackpots. The player controls Potsy, a gardener. Potsy's Brooklyn building is being overrun by bugs trying to climb inside six different windows.The player moves Potsy back and forth along the roof to drop pots on the bugs before they can get close enough to enter the windows! As for the features for this fine release, it features fabulous retro graphics, great sound effects and music, and finally very enjoyable gameplay for all the family with development by Antonio Savona, Steven Day and Saul Cross!
