holy crap, 64k of ram!

play Commodore 64 games online using Java. Enjoy the good old days of low resolution chunky sprites, addictive gameplay and bleepy sound fx without the hassle of an emulator. Hard to believe the machine had only 64k of ram.... Can't even fit a Word doc in 64k! Back then size constraints led to innovative coding techniques. I remember .mod files (Axle Foley theme!) and how they packaged audio samples and the sample playback sequence to create full songs in a small size. take that mp3! better than general midi garbage any day!
