The initial version of AVIATOR ARCADE was released as a three-level, 16KB cartridge game for the RGCD annual C64 game development competition (in 2014). This greatly enhanced sequel, AVIATOR ARCADE II is a direct response to the feedback received after the first game was released, and features:

• High octane 50/60 FPS SHMUP action!
• Ten action packed levels!
• All new background and sprite graphics!
• Bosses at the end of each level!
• Weapon and armour power-ups!
• Three difficulty levels, auto-fire and more options!
• Upgraded sound and bomb effects!
• High score list and options saved to cartridge and disk!
• Full PAL/NTSC compatibility!

Developed by Mark Hindsbo, Saul Cross and Thomas Petersen, AVIATOR ARCADE II is arguably one of the best vertical shoot-em-up games available for the Commodore 64, offering players a console quality arcade experience on the humble 8-Bit home computer!

AVIATOR ARCADE II is a Psytronik and RGCD Production.

Powerglove Reloaded Available! (Win/Mac/Linux/Amiga Download & Physical Release)

The world's fossil resources are exhausted. Two polar subterranean thermal reactors supply the increasing energy demand of mankind. An explosion in the Northern polar thermal reactor has destroyed all primary and secondary energy connections and contact with the engineers and rescue robots has been lost.

Without an energy supply the death of billions is imminent! We need the six control diamonds to engage the station's backup systems. Use the shielded suit and the Powerglove to protect you against the maintenance robots.

You're our only hope!

Fortunately, Master Lee has transferred some of the mystic scrolls’ power into four masks of endurance before they were stolen. Find these masks and use them wisely. As Confucius said: “He that would perfect his work must first sharpen his tools!”

TIGER CLAW is a relentless beat 'em up game developed by Lazycow and Saul Cross. Originally released exclusively on Commodore 64 cartridge by RGCD for backers of the C64 in Pixels Kickstarter (Fusion Retro Books, 2016), then ported to Windows, MacOS, Linux and the Commodore Amiga in 2018!

TIGER CLAW was initially released as an entry in the 2014 RGCD 16K C64 Game Development Competition (where it placed 2nd out of 17 entries). Taking player feedback into consideration, the game was both further expanded and refined for the 64KB final, including the addition of extra rooms, foes and features, an arcade-style training mode and a 2-4 player deathmatch arena!

In December 2018, a new version of TIGER CLAW was made available for Windows, MacOS, Linux and the Commodore Amiga (1MB RAM), both in digital format and as a physical release.

• Kill your friends in deadly 2-4 player versus battles!
• Smash your way through the arcade-style training mode!
• Collect ancient masks to gain new powers!
• Slay dozens of enemy foot soldiers, deadly ninjas, fearsome daemons, rabid hounds and birds of prey!
• 'Classic' mode with chunky C64 graphics!
• Full NTSC/PAL support (both on Commodore 64 and Amiga)!

(Belated) Happy New Year!

A belated Happy New Year to you all! The last couple of months have been insane here at RGCD; since the release of Aviator Arcade II (C64), Powerglove Reloaded (Amiga) and Tiger Claw (Amiga) in early December I have been swamped with over 250 orders, most of which were for multiple games. As you (probably) know, all our releases are hand assembled and packed by myself, Jamie and (in the case of most C64 releases) Tim in our spare time outside of our real-life jobs - and as a result I've only in the past couple of weeks caught up with the backlog. Phew!

Unfortunately, another side effect of the order-backlog was that I have completely failed to update this website! So, over the next couple of days I'll be quick-firing short blog posts to cover all the various projects that have been bubbling away in the background here. More to follow...
