Reviews
Game
Wizball is a very popular Commodore 64 game in which you control a green bouncing ball who must collect drops of color in order to paint the gray world. Sound strange? Yeah, it is. Thematically, it's a scrolling shooter, but it takes a lot to get used to. Bouncing around is very difficult at first, because you can only control the spin of the ball. However, as you kill off enemies and collect green orbs you'll be able to get power-ups that will make it easier to control your ball and fight your enemies.
Music
Wizball's music is very well known in the Commodore 64 community. Martin Galway did an excellent job with this game. Some of tracks are fanfares, and a couple of them are pretty repetitive, but one of the best tunes to come out of the SID chip it the Title music. Ever heard an electric guitar solo on a chip from 1983? Now you will. Martin Galway released some of the Wizball tracks on his album, Project Galway. The files with an asterisk (*)after their name use the album's title. The other tracks are named after the parts in the game they can be heard at.
Ripping
Ripping Commodore music is a very arduous process that is beyond the scope of this site.
