Precinct 20: Dead Strange Longplay (C64) [4K]

[@AL82RetrogamingLongplays]

We take a walk on the weird side with Alf Yngve's latest C64 release - see the video description for time codes!

[@LPetal86]

Just from watching these videos, the C64 seems to have a real knack for providing good atmosphere for creepy games. Take "Project: Firestart" for example. I think it's partly due to the style of sound the C64 makes. Great stuff!

[@ncf1]

It's basically Predator, on the street. Nonethless I think a game that will go down as a classic, in time. Remarkable, given the retro status of the beloved, amazing C64.

[@retrovertigoes]

seriously impressive

[@temp911Luke]

Love the story line and the atmosphere !

[@VepsianGameDesigner]

Beautiful game from retro system!

[@PlasticCogLiquid]

Love that music

[@giddue]

Nice longplay! I recognize some elements in the game graphics that I think have been inspired from classics such as Predator (for the main part of the playable character), Rambo First Blood (The fliying knives) and more. And I love it!

[@ItsBigIan]

I love it. It just oozes style.

[@AL82RetrogamingLongplays]

It definitely has a touch of Condemned: Criminal Origins about 👻

If you enjoyed this creepy experience, try my other horror game DARKLAND: csdb.dk/release/?id=134147

C64 4K gaming right there

[@towerbridge04]

That title track is certainly Matt Gray-ish. No bad thing of course!

[@AL82RetrogamingLongplays]

Yeah it's very good. Richard Bayliss has done some great tunes (and creates some cool games as well)

[@Emulous79]

Ambient stuff!

[@Scuba72Chris]

Very nice, well done Alf!

[@Djclyve]

Why is he killing all those men for doing the Gizmo dance?

[@garypayne]

looks like a sideways scrolling SEUCK game. :D impressive tho.

[@ArcturusDeluxe]

Is this a modified Shoot Em Up Construction Kit game? I dunno, something about it gives me bit of a SEUCK vibe. Not putting it down or anything as I know there was a bit of a stigma around SEUCK games, but I've seen some interesting stuff done with it since the old days. If I'm wrong please disregard!

[@AL82RetrogamingLongplays]

It uses a modified version of SEUCK - I think Richard Bayliss made changes to put a front-end on it and other tweaks.

[@damirko06]

What can be more"true" than the EGA? Only the CGA!

[@ARYngve-sz1qj]

The book with the same title, upon which this game was based, is available on Amazon. Read a complete sample story for free here: read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asin=B07D32K8GQ&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_D.fjDb75A7C30

[@AozoraOrigami]

is that all that the good ending is? it's open like that?

[@AlfYngve]

Well, I couldn't come up with a better "good" ending. (Side Note: The book doesn't have a "good" ending at all...)

[@Video-Games-Are-Fun]

platoon on the NES copied this gameplay

[@AozoraOrigami]
