The time has come: Sam’s Journey can be
ordered from the Protovision Shop!

Sam will NOT be shipped right away, though.

We are currently finalizing the game and are collecting funds to produce all Sams needed.
Sam’s Journey will be shipped in December (exact date is not yet defined).

The download versions of Sam will be made available at the same time as the physical versions ship out.

Everyone who orders a physical release of Sam also receives the digital versions.

Please understand that due to the high amount of orders, shipping out all Sams will take weeks.

Those who pre-registered Sam will be treated with priority and will receive an additional email with information on how to complete the order.

Finally we have custom made cases for our 4 Player Interface and the popular RR-Net in our shop!

As well, we now offer colorful replacement levers for your 1541 II. Just have a look at the pictures.

We have 14 brave participants now! But maybe there will be even more!

As a reminder: The Forum64 & Protovision Game Competition (Sports!) registration period ends THIS MONTH!

Thalamus is planning a number of new C64 game releases within its new REMASTERED EDITION series.

The first game is a strongly improved version of Hunter’s Moon with gameplay tweaks and more levels, among other things.

Extremely cool in this Kickstarter campaign is the involvement of e.g. Martin Walker, Robin Levy, Steve Day, Steve Thompson, Oliver Frey and Matt Gray, who will compose new C64 music if the related stretch goal is reached!!

Also Protovision is involved in the project.

Later on, completely new titles like Creatures 3 might become reality.
But all of this is only going to happen if the initial Kickstarter project is successful.

So, show Thalamus that we are ready and willing to take them back and
support this amazing Kickstarter campaign now!

After carefully considering all feedback that we received about the planned Sam’s Journey auction, we have decided to dismiss the auction idea and instead allow for payed orders of the upcoming C64 game Sam’s Journey right away.

That means: Sam can be ordered starting in October and will be shipped in December!

Also on the 1st of October, the full contents of the Sam box package will be revealed.

Thank you to all who have offered to send us their payment in advance! You are all our heroes as this helps us very much to produce enough Sams so we can deliver quickly to everyone in December.

At the time of delivery, also the download version of Sam will be made available (all physical editions of Sam include also the digital distribution).
If you have a pre-registration of Sam, we will send you a dedicated email in October with instructions on completing your order.

Here you are with the revised timeline for the release of Sam’s Journey:

• 30 September 2017: pre-registration phase ends
• 1 October 2017: Sam can be ordered in the Protovision shop
• December 2017 (exact date to be announced): Sam will be shipped out / Downloads will be made available

Please bear in mind that shipment will take a while with the exceptional high number of orders.
Those who have a pre-registration of Sam’s Journey will be handled with priority when it comes to shipping out Sam.

Besides Sam’s Journey and Galencia, we plan to release more games on cartridge, including re-releases of existing titles. The first game to also come on our new standard cartridge is going to be It’s Magic 2. The highscore is saved on the cartridge.

As well, It’s Magic 2 will now receive the boxed release it had always deserved!

We have a new Demo version of Galencia by Jason Aldred available on our homepage. The new demo is technically updated and is PAL/NTSC compatible. A new PAL and NTSC compatible version is also available at itch.io now.

As some people voiced the need for buying Galencia on Cassette, we are considering releasing Galencia not only on disk and cartridge, but also on tape.

If you want a cassette version of Galencia, let us know via our poll!

We now offer you newly made high quality transparent dust covers for your C64 / C64c in a professional packaging.

As well, we have the new FM Radio module, the new LumaFix for a better video image produced by your 64, the cynthCART64 cartridge, GeoRAM (newly produced) and a 1541 diagnostics cartridge in the shop for you. All nicely boxed. Have a look at the pictures!

Oh, and we have probably the last remaining sealed stock of CMD EX3 expansion port expanders.

See the Hardware and Miscelaneos Sections in the shop.

Our first Commodore64 coop game compo with Forum64 is starting well. We have 13 teams participating already, including enthusi/Veto (known from Caren and the Tangled Tentacles), Zaadii (Hack Attack), Endurion (e.g. Soulless, Guns’n’Ghosts, Awakening), M.J. (The Three Musketeers) and our own Majikeyric (Lumberjack). Also Jammer, the musician from Caren and the Tangled Tentacles, is participating as a programmer.

Anyway, we still want more participants! Sign up NOW until October and win hundreds of Euros with your C64 sports game!
…and two more reasons to sign up:

1. We allow also games without a single player mode now (But they will receive a 35% penalty)!
2. We are giving away a C64 Reloaded Board (MK1) to the compo winner!
