RetroGaming Shorts Part 098 - Angry Ninja

Angry Ninja 1994 (Commodore 64)

Awesome PETSCII art inspiration! This game really shows off what old school C64 PETSCII aesthetic can do. Just because you CAN fill up the whole screen doesn't mean you should. The small size of the map view gives an interesting sense of scale, and cropping the fights to just around the two (well animated!) characters makes combat feel more focused and deadly.

Oh yeah, the PETSCII animation of the melee fights is excellent.

RetroGaming Shorts Part 075 - Just Yer Basic Missile Command

Just Yer Basic Missile Command 1991 (Amiga)

This PD Missile Command clone is the version I played the most. The graphics looked really sharp for the time - 640x400 interlaced!

I love the smooth fast action. It's the sort of game design where the programmer clearly played it over and over and kept bumping up the speed and numbers of enemies to pump up the difficulty to taste.

The result is usually a game that is WAY too hard for me. But in this case, the generously large explosions kept things manageable to me.

As a result of this game, most Missile Command ports/clones look really sedate to me.

RetroGaming Shorts Part 067 - Sea Route to India

Sea Route to India 1984 (Commodore 64)

A COMPUTE type in BASIC game of the Oregon Trail type, with nice little minigames, all in PETSCII.

I think it could serve as good inspiration for mobile game design and aesthetics. For example, the PETSCII map and travelogue "dot" movement gives a particularly effective feeling of scale and adventure.
