Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Spore was an action maze game for the Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum, released by Mastertronic in 1987, and developed by Jim Baguley, with music composed by David Whittaker. The game included a level editor for users to create their own maps. The Commodore 64 is an 8-bit home computer introduced by Commodore International in January 1982. Volume production started in the spring of 1982, with machines being released on to the market in August at a price of US $595. Preceded by the Commodore VIC-20 and Commodore PET machines, the C64 features 64 kilobytes (65,536 bytes) of RAM, hence the name, and had favourable sound and graphical specifications when compared to well known contemporary systems such as the Apple II, particularly as the price was well below that demanded by Apple.
