In 1985, the Darling brothers released a unique game creation utility for the Commodore 16 and Plus/4: Games Designer. At a time when programming knowledge was often a barrier, this tool filled a vital gap by giving young enthusiasts the chance to build their own games with little to no coding experience. It was a groundbreaking effort in bringing game development to a wider audience—especially kids who dreamed of creating their own digital worlds. The original release included three example games, designed to showcase what could be achieved with the software: Space Desert, Creature Crawl, and Road Stunner. This collection brings those titles together once more—both as a tribute to early creativity and as a snapshot of an era when imagination was just beginning to merge with interactivity on home computers.

In the 1990s Nintendo made a deal with Philips to develop 3 Zelda titles. The first 2 were side scrolling platformers, similar to Zelda II, and the third was a traditional top-down action adventure game. Zelda’s Adventure looked interesting and it would be fun to play on a portable system. The Game Boy was chosen because of the existing Zelda games on the system. The game sticks to the aesthetics of Link’s Awakening, but also incorporates some features from Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons. This is a complete port of the CDi original and was developed in GB Studio, with a few modifications.
