Ghostbusters Revisited - A new take on that classic Ghostbusters game is coming to the C64

For gamers of a certain age, few things trigger a rush of pure nostalgia quite like the opening of the classic Ghostbusters theme song. Released during the golden era of 8-bit computing across legendary machines like the Amstrad, Commodore 64, and the ZX Spectrum, the original movie tie-in game remains an absolute touchstone of retro history. Now, one homebrew developer is preparing to grab your attention, with the upcoming game called 'Ghostbusters Revisited'. An in-dev C64 title whereby you have to traverse many different rooms as a Ghostbuster while firing proton streams to pull them into a trap through a first person viewpoint.

After leaving a rough Commodore 64 Ghostbusters demo unfinished back in 2021, Dave Izon finally decided to pick the project back up this year, leading to the creation of Ghostbusters Revisited. While the game has advanced significantly since those early days, it remains a work in progress with new rooms, ghosts, and general polish still left on his to-do list. Furthermore this is completely separate from another developer's sleek project, Ghostbusters Remastered, which has a more polished presentation. This video focuses strictly on the creators own labour of love stating" Thank you so much for following along, and I hope you enjoy seeing how much this passion project has grown over the years!"

And that's all there is to say about the game! But thanks to Andy Godoy for the heads up :)
