About this game

With 8-Bit Wonders you can play both old and new pixel games in the style of the 80s while retaining all the advantages of your modern Android device (of course, other programs besides games also work):

• Support for Hardware keyboards and joystick via USB and bluetooth.


• A full virtual keyboard, a joystick and a steering wheel for the touchscreen are available.


• All disk and tape formats supported by VICE can be used.


• Load and save files using local storage or cloud services.


• Save states, pin them to the app’s start screen, and share with others.


• Direct access to the software library on archive.org.

The C64, the most popular computer of the 80s, its predecessor VIC20, the PET series from 1977 onward and Commodore's last 8 bit computer C128 are supported.

8-Bit Wonders is still under development, and your help is appreciated! What do you like, what’s buggy, and what would you have done differently? Contribute your feedback here!

The app pulls content from archive.org, github.com, gitlab.com and zimmers.net, but does not reveal any personal data, only your public IP address.

What’s new

- Fixed touch detection bug caused by screen cutouts like notches and camera holes.
- Resolved crash issues.
- Secondary button of the touch-screen joystick now works correctly.
