I'm half tempted to get this on tape, despite trying to stick to disk and cart. Is the tape single-load? Do the scores save to the tape or externally to disk?
Bitmapsoft did a really nice job with the tape. It is single-load, and has a loading screen and a cover version of Ocean loader 5(?). We put out a video with the loader a little while ago: https://twitter.com/bag_of_hats/status/1459214355980066817
Hi. Sorry about that. I have updated the download&install instructions now.
Basically, if you want to play it on your PC/Mac we recommend using an emulator called VICE. Remember to use the latest version of Vice to get the best emulation.
Hey. Great game! The graphics look amazing! Well done.
Are you interested in a co-op bundle? I recently finished an update for my game ([DIS] Assemble) and we are making a black friday bundle with another game.
Although we would very much like to be part of co-op bundles Showdown is a C64 game, so we prefer it being bundled with C64 (or other retro-system) games. We are working on making a C64 co-op bundle atm
Thank you for the kind request though, and good luck with the bundle!

Lovely game ! Thanks and congrats again.
Thank you. Love the video! 😊
Tons of fun, I'm a sucker for westerns. The reloading mechanic is really interesting.
Thank you very much! 😊

Scores are not saved. 😶
It's probably a good game but i don't know how to open d64 files so :/.

You can download VICE from http://vice-emu.sourceforge.net/
When you have started VICE, you should be able to drag the d64-file to VICE and it will run the game.
Let me know if you have any more issues! :-)
Wait this is akward.... its like the game that ive been developing...
No way!
