MONTY ON THE RUN – Commodore 64 (1985) | Rob Hubbard’s Iconic Soundtrack & Platforming Adventure

Описание: Monty on the Run, developed by Gremlin Graphics and released in 1985, is a standout platformer for the Commodore 64. Serving as the third installment in the Monty Mole series, the game follows Monty as he escapes from Scudmore Prison and embarks on a journey to reach France, evading capture along the way. The game is renowned for its innovative gameplay, challenging mechanics, and, notably, its exceptional soundtrack composed by Rob Hubbard.

In Monty on the Run, players navigate Monty through a series of multi-screen levels, each filled with obstacles, enemies, and environmental hazards. The gameplay emphasizes precise timing and strategic movement, requiring players to learn enemy patterns and utilize various items to progress. A distinctive feature is the game's opening screen, where players must select five items from a list of 21, with certain items being essential for advancing through specific stages. This selection process, while adding depth, also served as a form of copy protection.

The game's visual design is characterized by its vibrant and detailed environments, showcasing the capabilities of the C64's graphics hardware. However, it's the soundtrack that truly sets Monty on the Run apart. Rob Hubbard's composition has been lauded as one of the best ever created for the C64, with its catchy melodies and dynamic rhythms enhancing the overall gaming experience.

Upon release, Monty on the Run received critical acclaim, with Zzap!64 awarding it a 90% rating and a "Sizzler" accolade. The game's combination of challenging gameplay, innovative mechanics, and outstanding music has solidified its status as a classic in the realm of retro gaming.
