Hi Pretzelves is a very fun and beautiful game. I want to test it on real C64 with easyflash but I have a message "please turn your drive on and load again" , I can't lauch the game. Thanks by advance
Hi, thank you for playing and for the nice comments. Unfortunately we have not had the chance to test it on easyflash but will look around a bit. That error may appear if non accurate drive emulation is used, but not sure if or how that applies to easyflash.
Sorry not EasyFlash but Kung fu flash . Yes I really would like to play this beautiful game with real C64 on Crt ^^
Very fun and technically perfect game, especially if you play with a friend. Also very cute, high-resolution graphics. Our German-language review can be found in our recorded livestream starting at 01:01:11. English subtitles are also available. Subscription to our YouTube and Twitch channel is welcome. 🙂
Thank you so much for the kind words and for making the video review, even though the name of the game is a bit odd 😉
Looks great and just bought it, but unfortunately it won't run on my TheC64. Just some message "please turn your drive on and load again", which doesn't make too much sense IMO. Any ideas? Thanks!
EDIT: just rename "The Pretzelves.d64" to "The Pretzelves_AD.d64" and it will work flawlessly on TheC64 :-)
Thank you for buying the game. Unfortunately I have no real idea why it won't work on your The64 but will look into is as soon as possible. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks for looking into this! For now I resorted to my MEGA65, there it runs without issues. Really nice little game!
Glad to hear that you can play it at least. I have googled a bit and this may be connected to the true drive emulation in The64 (Vice). This thread describes how it was solved for someone (though for other games), but it seems to be a bit fiddly and I have no possibility to verify it unfortunately.

Yo, indeed, the problem was the emulator's drive emulation.
The easiest way to fix it is to just rename the game's d64 filename
from "The Pretzelves.d64" to "The Pretzelves_AD.d64".
The _AD appendix forces the emu to use Accurate Drive emulation.
Cheers!
Good find and thanks for sharing. Hope you enjoy playing The Pretzelves!
What a nice surprise! Lovely game, plays really well.
Thank you for playing and for your nice comments. 😀
A fun game, but a really fun game to play with a friend. I also included it in my new "Gameplay of New C64 Games from December 2024" video, along with other C64 games that have been released.
Thank you for your nice comment and for adding it to the video! :)
