Guitar Hero on a Commodore 64

Post by SpaceBooger »

It's called Shredz64 and the creator also made an adapter that allows you to use any Playstaion comparable controller on a C46, Atar 2600, and other systems from that generation.

You could always get something like the SD2IEC. It's relatively cheap (~50), but doesn't support all fast loaders.

I saw this a while back when it was a little rougher. I swear there was some other demake on C64 recently that I can't remember.

Looks pretty incredible. I just wish the guy had used a full 2D interface. The perspective effect seems to be a little off (he could've made it like in JamLegend and D-Pad Hero). Granted, it's not meant to be a game people spend hours with, it's mostly a novelty, but still...

Saw this at AWA during Anime Hell. Somewhat relevant.
