Title: Retro Hotshots.
Post by: Greyfox on January 13, 2018, 21:12:17 PM
Hey All?.. I hope everyone is having a great 2018 so far and that this year brings all the things you all wish to aspire too. For me, I have finally gotten around to doing something I've wanted to do for a long time now and that is to create byte-sized Retro gaming related viral videos and today..this has taken shape and wished to share it as many people as possible.

The Project is called  "Retro Hotshots" will cover a wealth of games with bite-sized facts and trivia from across many platforms from computers to consoles, so expect them a wide variety of amazing games, but with my first video covers a classic Atari 8bit game. Alley Cat from Synapse Software from 1983

These videos will be very short but edited tightly to about 1min 30sec or 2mins in total. so I hope you enjoy the video. please share these with as many people to help the video generate a status.. and watch for more coming over the next couple of weeks...Many thanks.

Okay..Ladies and gentlemen..I've created another byte-sized video this time covering a great survival horror classic made back in 1988 on the 8bit computer I never owned..the Commodore 64 and this exclusive "Project Firestart" only ever appeared on this computer to which is mind-boggling stuff..that it never got released on the zx Spectrum or Amstrad or even a 16-bit version? as it was fantastic..to which I hope you all enjoy another Retro Hotshots video  8)

Wow..already another week has passed since my last entry to the Retro Hotshots series..well here's another one for you Al,  to enjoy..I wish I make these more often but this time I present a steam punk classic on the commodore Amiga from a very well received Amiga software house as well as supporting the Atari ST also, since the majority of their ports were actually done from the ST in regards to coding work..no joke for real..lol...and back in the room...yes i'm talking about the Bitmap Brothers.

Anyways this one covers that cool gun'n'run classic "The Chaos Engine" how many of you have fond memories of this one? Anyways I hope you enjoy this titbit of info along with the gameplay ..enjoy everyone.
