The lovely Anthony Stiller shocked the world with his 4kb chef themed dungeon crawler in .

Mat said, "An RPG in 4k? With graphics and sound?! There is some serious wizardry going on here (pun intended), but the ex*****on is terrific, the premise bonkers, and it does require some reactions and timing skill to complete. Could easily be expanded further with more memory."

deadline August 31.

Misfit trolled the entire scene with his entry, WTF, which earned him 2nd place.

Dan said "What if we make a game with Wizball controls said nobody else since Wizball, until Misfit that is! Lovely hires chars, smooth scrolling, interesting puzzle game, would be nice if there was some marker to show me where the ball/thing was aiming for, but nice idea done well."

Paul Koller took out first place in with his brilliant Conga 4096, which was a demake of RGCD's Pan Dimension Conga Combat.

Mat said "Paul is doing it again, de-making another game, and attempting to put people into hospital with more crazy light effects! The gameplay in itself is somewhat like the old Atari arcade Quantum, and there is a fine balance of inertia to control, as you only get one life. One and done here. Lovely graphics, drum beats, and a definite “one more go” feeling."

One of my favourite photos with the Reset team, when we met up at Pax Melbourne 2015 (I think). Such a long time ago, but great memories!! Love these guys to bits. From left to right -
Cam Davis (♥️), Rob Caporetto, Ant Stiller, me and Alex Boz.

Exciting to think that there is still more to come!

Last night on Facebook, Cameron's wife, Sabrina, shared the news of Cameron's passing after a short and unexpected illness. Cameron Davis () was a valued Reset team member and a good friend.

Cameron was a talented, kind, funny and generous man. We will dearly miss him.

We send our sincerest condolences to Sabrina, as well as Cameron's friends and family.

A big Merry Christmas from Reset64 Magazine & crew to all of our readers, friends and colleagues!

It has been a quiet year from Reset, due entirely to real life throwing its weight around. But rest assured, we're still around and are looking forward to another big year of gaming in 2024, as well as a new issue or two!

We hope you and your loved ones have a fantastic Christmas and New Year. Stay safe!
