Twice there were games about Mansell in development for the C64. Neither of them were released...

That's coz moustaches are unlucky. It's a well-known fact. Mario is the exception.
It's true I tells ya, TRUE!

Nice work with the update. Some very rare C64 stuff Frank.
I was disappointed with UFO 2 & UFO 3. Those were hardly playable, but the game preview of Labrynths made up for it :)

A small, but slightly bigger than usual update...
http://www.gtw64.co.uk Tonight we find and release the long lost "Fungus 2" by Players Software and Karl Hornell. This is a full game, and quite a nice one at that with some cool 3D aspect graphics.
This only managed to survive on one work disk, so we are very happy to salvage it. We hope you enjoy it, as does Karl himself after all these years!

Things are getting even *better* for the C64 already. :)
This is an excellent full game. I'm very surprised Players never got to sell this release. It is highly addictive, nice isometric style game.
Something I certainly would have added to my collection in the times commercial games were around.
Keep up the good work with GTW :)

Last update probably until I move house...
(*) Dying High - lost Zzap 64 game added
(*) Crab Grab - Excellent creator speaks page added (really nice big set of details from the coder).

Grand! I downloaded Fungus 2 last night and it's a veritable treat of a game.
Keep it up, Frank!

One of GTW's most wanted lost games, Devious Designs, has been saved
and fixed up to a final version as complete as possible from what
remained.
Thanks to Pete Baron and Glenn Rune Gallefoss, you
can now enjoy the game which Imageworks denied C64 fans all them
years back.
Now i'm gonna move house... <phew>....

YES.
I've been waiting for this. I'm going to download it now.
Good luck with the move!
