Atari fans are in luck, as Andrea Cucchetto (Italy) has managed to convert the popular Commodore 64 game “Space Taxi” for Atari 8-bit computers, with lovely graphics, challenging gameplay and even digitized voices.
Cucchetto, known for his contributions to the Atari scene with titles such as “Circo Bianco” (1987), “Hypnotic Land” (1992) and “Conquest of the Crown” (1994), decided to resume his passion in 2013. After releasing the disc version of “White Circus”, he set himself an even bigger challenge: converting “Space Taxi” for Atari.
“Space Taxi” was originally created by John Kutcher in 1984 and was noted for its digitized voices and addictive gameplay. Although it seemed like a daunting task due to the technical limitations of the Atari 8-bit computers compared to the C64, Andrea plucked up the courage and began the challenging project.
