C64 HD! Flimbo's Quest

[TinyFinH]

As much as i love Flimbo please don't call anymore videos HD.

Its not HD! There is not a high level of definition in the original source, its sub-standard definition grrrr

[ToricoUK]

@TinyFinH Well it's HD on youtube, meaning it's clearer.

[bazfanv2]

HD looks terrible. Im going back to 480p. Ahhh thats better.

[ninjastare]

awesome!

[henniganwilson]

awesome, but not HD. The C64 couldnt even dream of upscaling to HD. But it never needed to :)

[thezuggWoW]

Amazing game - thank you for uploading, many memories of my youth this brings back :)

[austinmackert]

This is on a C64? Damn, the machine is more powerful than I thought!

[zara958]

I think this was the game that i played the most,I used to play dizzy a lot and that circus game you got with the c64. we used to have hundreds of games, i remember they used to be really cheap and there was a magazine you could get that came with a 'free' game..

[KilleRotom]

When he jumps, it sounds like a fart

[marquis0r]

HD ...

[hankeyj84]

awesome the very first game i've ever played. Thanks Flimbo for opening the world of gaming to me in a early age :)

[Proagain]

@hankeyj84 Me too =D

[HidekiAdam]

You are cheating like hell!

[MrSaju1]

[davie732]

ive played this on the C64 and AMIGA, although the characters look a bit better on the amiga, its no where near as good as the c64 version

[MrAlperry]

[nivavalin]

The best game on C64!

[LicenceToVideo]

This game is ridiculously fun and addicting. I played at a friend's house and loved it. :D

The colour emulation is completely false... C64 never had such colourfull display, this one looks like Amstrad CPC palette.

[RajmanGamingHD]

@macdeath69 I remember it looking exactly like this on the C64

[tianoof]

My favourite too! Parallax scroll, transparency (! on stage 5, the poison bottle), secret places, and perfect music. But more enjoyable on TV screen! It was my first game, and I never tought, the games have more than one stage...I was very suprised when loaded the 2. stage...woooww.......

[Museite]

and then Flimbo banged her relentlessly

[nor94]

My favorite c64 game! cheers from Poland!

[BeatsBass1]

Back in the day one of the many games I clocked on the C64! Still remember the ending, Flimbo on the tree branch with his girlfriend!

[ianash12]

can you play this online. i had it on cartridge for the c64 and loved it happydays!!!!!!!!

[TequilaCT]

Brings back memories of the old times. Playing this on the c64. I had the Cartridge version :)

[dannysubaruman]

Me and my bro spent ages trying to do this game we always got to the last level then either ran out of time or snuffed it God bless you system 3 for making a shit hot game! i wrote to them a few months back asking if i could possible remake this game and what form of rights they had., and there response was they own full rights but would like to work with someone who could remake this game

[ToricoUK]

@dannysubaruman sweet, that's hope!

[GTAjedi]

@dannysubaruman

Oh god I would so buy a remake of this. I got to level four a couple of times but didnt have enough time left :(

[azivadek]

the best game ........THX

[bazfanv2]

The problem using emulators like this on HD panels, is the graphics look manky. Not the emus fault, just imcompatabilty differences between HD and Crt.

[AndrewFaulds]

@bazfanv2 It is the emulator's fault. Those that use "smooth" upscaling create horrible images.

[TheKonrad1984]

I wonder how old this game is????

[SonGOKUSSJ6]

@TheKonrad1984 20 years...Flimbo's Quest was released in 1990

[ToricoUK]

@SonGOKUSSJ6 Aren't you a bit young for Flimbo? just wondering

[SonGOKUSSJ6]

@ToricoUK Nope i'm old enough to enjoy this game. As a kid i owned Commodore 64 hence it was my 1st computer to play with. It doesn't matter to me if i'm too young or old. I always play C64 games cause that was one part of my childhood.

[TheKonrad1984]

@SonGOKUSSJ6 Thanx man :)

[ukwanderer]

I( remember my wife spending hour after hour playing this game. You did in five minuets what took her five weeks..........

Great job. Brought back a lot of memories.

[JayCal2076]
