In this video we check out three amazing Commodore PET homebrew games programmed by Jim Orlando running on my PET 2001-N computer with the PET ROM RAM board upgraded to 32 KB of RAM and BASIC 4.0. The games are PETLifter (a Choplifter clone), PETSCII Portal and PET Panic!

First up we have PETLifter - a Choplifter type game for the CBM PET computer. Dan Gorlin's original Choplifter game for the Apple II was amazing. The Commodore PET always deserved something similar. Now we have it!

Next up we have PETSCII Portal, a Commodore PET tribute to the 2007 Flash game Portal2D, which itself was a tribute to the Valve Software classic Portal.

And finally we have PET Panic - a "platformer" game for the Commodore PET. The arcade game Space Panic was the first "platformer" game, and it inspired more popular games of the time such as Lode Runner and Donkey Kong.
