Ricercar achieved Deadly rank on a Commodore SX-64 circa 1987, playing the Firebird version with the orange LensLok. Thankfully the first week a friend hacked the code and gave me a disk that gave a miss to the LensLok check. That was as annoying as any unexpected witchspace Thargoid encounter.


Muscle memory required an Oolite plist for C-64 keys. Save the following test as ..\oolite\add-ons\config\keyconfig.plist

Holy Moly! Oolite is cooler than peanut butter! I played 22 hours straight, until I bought myself a Python. Thanks to all involved.
