Valkyr (2023, Picaro Games)

As Christmas approaches this year, everyone is getting more and more excited almost daily about the special creations coming to Commodore 64. Another game arrived today, a remake of an MSX game originally programmed in 1985 by Colin Dooley (Gremlin Graphics).

The aim is to kill alien bugs and collect energy capsules to fill the bar at the bottom of the screen. Once this is done, before the timer reaches 0, our pulse bomb is activated and we can detonate it to move on to the next sector.

As you can read, it’s a very special kind of space shooting, and it’s worth paying attention to the game rules and bonus parts too.
