Defender Rocks!

August 31, 2004 · Filed Under Retro Remakes News · Comments Off 

If Defender is your cup of tea then check out this fantastic up and coming demo of Alien Abduction. Created by Pumpkin Games, I suggest checking out the website for development notes and more.. Definately one to keep an eye on, and I’m not normally a big fan of Defender but this just oozes polish! :)

I used to like playing this on the Speccy, Solomons Key is a great remake of a fantastic little puzzler, written by Zonker. Kindly hosted by our very own OddBob :)

Heres a remake of Missile Command called SaturnMD : Saturn missile defender by the Reeteam. Site is in French but the game is in English/French. Pretty enjoyable remake, although the intro to the game features some heavy strobing which made I dribble :S

Hugs and Kisses to OddBob for the news :)

Are you a fan of the Leisure Suit Larry adventures, or even the tales of Sam and Max, then you may well be interested in the Point and Click Adventure Creator by Zimond.

Retro Gamer - Issue 7

August 27, 2004 · Filed Under Retro Remakes News · Comments Off 

Retro Gamer Issue 7 has hit the High Street, with articles on the recent CGE exhibition, and the bizarre showing by Matthew Smith. It also includes interviews with Level 9, the history of the Atari ST, a series on Speccy game endings and a piece on that magic box the Multiface.

One of the more interesting articles I think will be on retro game creators such as The Quill, STOS, AMOS and the classic SEUCK.

Grab your copy now :)

splashing fun baby!

Please remember, the splashscreens were updated 13:30 today (23rd August 2004). If you haven’t got the latest versions please download them.

Also, as a sidenote. Remember remakes must be 10 megabytes max, this does not mean 10 megs and a little bit. A kilobyte over will be rejected by the upload system which is being implemented :)
