Wizball - 3D Animation By Imaginetix

Here is a GORGEOUS 3D animation based on the classic Commodore 64 game 'Wizball'. The animation was rendered by the supa-talented Mark Hennessy-Barrett - a CGI Specialist, LightWave Generalist and bloody nice bloke to boot. To check out more of his work (including his stunning demo-reel) head on over to http://www.imaginetix.co.uk/

The music in the clip is from the Karma64 CD (Wizball, remixed by Slow Poison) and Back in Time 3 - for more details about those and more C64 remix CDs head on over to http://www.c64audio.com ...

For other C64 related goodies (including my very own podcast show) head along to http://www.binaryzone.org

Thanks for watching!

I wonder what Wizball would be like as an animated series?

Holy blap... I've never read the comments here before. Thanks everyone, you've made my night with that - I'm really glad you liked it.

Wow, very impressive! I recognized a lot of those sprites falling into the graves, too. Funny expressions on Wizball's face lol

[BattlestarGentoo]

Fantastic. I guess it was a lot of work.

Notable exception : this video ...

Someone has made a new version of wizball that runs on a PC. I cant remember exactly but I found it after a few minutes of googling.

Christ that music brings back so many good memories. One of my all time favorite C64 games.
