Step back into the golden age of gaming as I play Popeye on the Commodore 64! In this classic 1983 platformer by Parker Brothers, I take on the role of the spinach-powered sailor himself, racing to catch the hearts, musical notes, and help letters tossed by Olive Oyl before they hit the water-all while dodging the relentless Brutus, the crafty Sea Hag, and her vulture Bernard. Each level brings new challenges and layouts, from bouncing on seesaws to climbing ladders, and grabbing that iconic can of spinach for a burst of strength to send Brutus flying! Join me for a nostalgic journey filled with colorful graphics, catchy SID chip tunes, and all the frantic fun that made Popeye a beloved C64 classic.
Sprite Castle is an audio podcast but in 2013 experimented with this video format which ran for 31 episodes. I've learned a lot about streaming and making videos since then, but I thought I would upload these for archival purposes.
