California Games on Steam
Ask anyone who considered themselves a true gamer in 1987 and the chances are they will fondly remember California Games. Now on Steam for the very first time, you too can enjoy six radical and awesome events: the half-pipe, roller skating, surfing, BMX, footbag and the flying disc.
California Games was an NES game (and I think on the PC before that?) that was kind of like a beach bum Olympics. It's notoriously difficult and weirdly fun.
Amazing! My C64 version always crashed when it came to the BMX stage due to damage on the tape, even tried cutting it and sticking it back together as that was the rumour on how to fix these things at the time.
I'll get this for no other reason than to go through the whole game for once in my life.

Yeah I'm a 90s kid too, but I have a passing familiarity with this game, and know that people from the 80s have a particular reverence for this game, I think it was somewhat of a pre-internet cultural phenomenon.
I don't think I ever played the first California Games, or if I did I didn't play it much. I liked the second one on the Amiga though.

I've noticed they've been adding a lot of 80s games on Steam over the past few months. Very neat.
I guess Piko must be really doing well with catalog title reissues for more companies to start jumping in. I knew DotEmu and Night Dive were doing that exclusively before they got on well enough to fund active development projects. Personally I just wish companies that vault 80%+ of their vast collection of catalog games for an eternity were as devoted to getting them circulating in as many places as possible again.
I mean this was a lot of NES games. There were only so many mechanics with 2 buttons.
I could destroy any challenger on hacky sack. I invested wayyyy to much time into hack sack lol
Would love a remake of California Games. and while we are at it, also a remake of Skate or Die and Ski or Die.
I rocked hacky sack, I sucked at surfing.
While I have fond memories, not sure if I am interested in this

was there a way to get past the long ass sand area in the rollerskating event or were you just supposed to fall over at that point
It was sarcasm lol. Probably the most button mashy game ever, famously so. I played it on the C64 though.
If you believe you have a gamers badge somewhere, please hand it in....
this is a Commodore 64 and Apple II game.
