CASTLE SMASH — Milasoft (Commodore 64)

The classic four-castle showdown, rebuilt from scratch in pure 6502 machine code. Defend your fortress. Demolish everyone else's.

Four warlords, one screen. Any mix of human and computer players — grab three friends for full four-player keyboard chaos, plug joysticks into both ports, or go solo against three cunning drones.

Up to three fireballs in play at once. One ball at level one, two at level two, three from level three on — staggered launches keep the pressure building as the arena fills with crossfire.

Catch, hold, unleash. Snag an incoming fireball on your shield and hold it — but careful: holding erodes your own wall behind you. Release for a screaming whiz shot, and sweep your shield as you fire to put english on the ball.

Computer opponents that fight dirty. Drones track the nearest ball with velocity lead, react at full speed when threatened, and catch and return fire just like humans — catching more often the deeper you go. Three difficulty settings.

Also on board: level progression with escalating mayhem, runtime key redefinition (bind all twelve keys to whatever suits your crowd), SID sound effects, and a slick animated intro. Runs on any C64 (PAL or NTSC) and PET 3032/4032 or 8032 models.

Works with Stupid Pet Tricks joystick and COLOUR PET. Custom definable keys and joystick.

One castle will be left standing. Make sure it's yours.

I noticed that when you change the keys it doesn't update them on the title screen.  Maybe it's not supposed to, and just shows the default.

I'll try a 2 - 4 player game when my nephews and niece visit in a few weeks.

Thanks for making PET games  :-)

Yes that was intentional. I thought about changing it.

Corrected a small bug in C64 game. Player 1 key controls were backward. Also added an untested C64 4-player joystick version.
