The Commodore 64 was launched in 1982, featuring the MOS 6510 processor, an advanced sound chip (SID) with three-voice synthesis, and hardware sprites. It became the best-selling computer of all time and changed the history of computer games. Sid Meier's Pirates!, Turrican, Summer Games, and Maniac Mansion are examples of games born on the C64.
The Great Giana Sisters is a 2D platformer inspired to Super Mario Bros (you might say "clone"). It was developed by Time Warp initially for the Commodore 64/128, in 1987, then ported to Amiga and Atari ST in 1988.
