Hi everyone, this is Jen, Barrie’s daughter. I’m very sorry to share the news that Barrie passed away yesterday. He loved interacting on X with you all and making the contacts that he has. He thought of many of you as friends. He asked me to let you know.

One last time from The Furnace 🔥 @cm0102SL

Only the older generation will recognize this one. Beach-Head, published in 1983 by Access Software, is one of the tougher C64 games I have played back in the day. I was 8 or 9 when I first gave it a shot, so maybe that was part of the reason but even in my teenage years I still struggled to get to that final mega-bunker/fortress monstrosity at the end. Beach-Head was commercially successful back in the day, selling around quarter of a million copies, an excellent number for that era. Bruce Carver went on to also make Raid over Moscow one year later - another classic of 80s gaming history, and one that was equally hard (the hangar sequence still gives me PTSD). I think in terms of design and gameplay you can see how the 2 games are related, the vibe feels similar.

An unbelievable end to Season 18 in the CM0102SL Burn and Coast both lose, allowing LSK to sneak past, Fosse hammers Exiles who loses out on a top 2 on goal difference. Unrivalled drama 😮

Game Day 🔥

It's the last round of the regular season of the CM0102 Super League - Season 18 Everything still to play for (apart from 13th and 14th spot).. Will Burn squeeze back in top the Top6, can Badgers hang on to top spot ?
