Kobo64 is a space shooter game which can be considered as a "port" of Kobo Deluxe for the Commodore 64 platform. There are many similarities like maps or enemies, but the algorithms were altered to better fit to the platform limitations. It was written in 6502 assembler (64tass) for performance reasons.

The game was an entry for the RGCD 2013 16KiB cartridge game competition.
