2009.09.03 ... Paracute is based on one of my early Commodore 64 games called Crazy Cave Jumper. Since the fastest way to scroll with the built in Basic Programming Language of the C64 was to insert text or characters at the bottom of the screen, games where the background scrolled upwards was the natural thing to do. So a parachute jumper was as suitable as could be. Paracute went live on the Donut Games site today.
