Old blog post time! Let's look back at Armalyte, a shoot 'em up that's considered a masterpiece on the Commodore 64. However, I played the Amiga version, so I got a very different experience, oops! Despite that, I came away thinking that it was a cool but brutally difficult game:

I had a pleasant email exchange with my mother and gave her my address. Then a little while later she accidentally emailed me my new address with the subject line “<deadname>’s new address.” I know I shouldn’t feel bad about what was meant to be a private note, but it still sucks.

It's already been properly preserved (i.e. in Redump) for PC and Mac, but if you want to own a physical copy of Cookie's Bustle, you aren't going to get many chances other than this.
