Sad :(

Played 'Giana returns' just recently on Baccy's DS. It was quite fun, and I was positively surprised that Armin was involved in it. RIP!

R.I.P Armin !

When I think of C64 gaming, the first game that comes to my mind is Great Giana Sisters.

I just read on the Spellbound Homepage that the company is located in Kehl. Didn't knew that.

By a very strange coincidence I'll drive tomorrow to Kehl to visit a very good female friend of mine. Very sad to hear it that way, that my friend works in a company very close to Spellbound, at least according to google maps :(

I think one of my first cracks was by ABYSS and it was the edited version of "The Sisters"... Edited to look and feel more like mario.

RESPECT...

R.I.P. Armin..

Somehow I missed that he passed away, I liked the C64 version also but more often played it on Amiga. Armin used his name for cheating and this was the secret key-code (all letters hold together) to skip levels. This is the only cheat I can remember for any C64 game not coming from trainer versions.

R.I.P.!
