- Peterbonds — Germany
CSDb catalogues this as "Peterbonds Intro," released in February 1993 — placing it in the twilight years of the C64 cracking scene, when most commercial software development for the platform had ceased. Peterbonds was a German group, abbreviated PETS on CSDb. No individual credits for code, music, or graphics are listed on the CSDb release page. The group is absent from Doc Snyder's Page, Demozoo, Atlantis Prophecy, and Freeze64, suggesting a limited presence in the documented scene. A February 1993 release date is notably late — by this point, the Commodore 64 market had largely collapsed, and most active groups had migrated to the Amiga or PC platforms. Groups still producing C64 content in this period were typically motivated by nostalgia or dedication to the platform rather than competitive cracking. The intros.c64.org listing has attracted comments from Daison and Rough, confirming community awareness of the production.
