An interesting title into the archives, with what seems to be a missing C64 conversion of Shaun Southern’s classic C16 title Jetbrix.
HonouredShadow on the Lemon64 forums got in touch to say that his girlfriend was looking for a game they used to play on the C64. It was established to be Jetbrix, and likely on the C16 – but Shaun Southern has listed the game on his site as a C64 title as well.
GTW’s Andrew Fisher commented that when interviewing Shaun, he was fairly certain that the game was never released – but that he remembered finishing it on the C64. It is hoped that perhaps Shaun may still have something of it and that we can look to preserve it in the future – especially as we have previously preserved Andrew Morris’ work.
Watch this space!

My suggestion is to take whar SOUT remembers with a grain of salt: on that same site, he also assigned to the C16 two conversions which nobody have really seen around: Super Snake Simulator and Duck Shoot.

It’s true – memories can blur over time. We’ll hopefully find out for sure some day.
