My new site of random crap, with some PC Engine content!
« on: March 29, 2010, 11:14:09 AM »
I've been putting together a new site that catalogues a mishmash of things that I have worked on over the years so it doesn't get forgotten. It's not yet complete, but there are a few sections that are ready and might be of interest to people here.

The first is the section of old Amiga projects, many of which have references to PC Engine and other consoles of the time. It also has a gazillion screenshots and videos and adf files to download.
The other is the 'Things Printed on Paper' section which has 2 issues of a fanzine I wrote which covers games, anime, movies etc and has a PC Engine feature in issue 1. This was done years ago before teh internetz existed, so forgive any errors.

The site is at www.pcengine.co.uk/sunteam.

I love the UI for the page archiving the Amiga stuff :)

I've gone through some stuff so far... totally fun!

"Make it so..." Hahahhahahaha.

ALSO: I would love playing Wonderboy in Cavern of Evil:

I've had some problems uploading the video for Don Don Land in the Amiga section. I should have that sorted soon so you can laugh at the fact we had the gall to go to EA with it!


Edit: Video is working now.

I've made a page for my remake of Cybernoid which hasn't been available to download for a few years now.

Throw some video footage on your site when you get a chance :)

You are too kind. It was fun watching the video, then I noticed the "Making Of..." PDF.

Dude, people will miss that PDF link! It was fun to skim through... but I cried when I read the part about Thanatos! Why no remake of that great game!

There were a couple of problems with the Thanatos idea. Firstly, the holders of the competition werern't bothered about retaining authenticity, and seemed more interested in 'interpretations' of the games on their list. I don't like it when remakes aren't faithful to the original, which is why when we did Cybernoid it was as close as we could get it, even retaining the resolution of the orginal graphics. Secondly, I hadn't managed to finish Thanatos so recreating the later parts would be guesswork. When the idea of Cybernoid came up, that seemed perfect. As good as Thanatos is, Cybernoid is a much better game.

I hear ya, Paul, but in Cybernoid, you don't get to control a WYVERN or WYRM or anything like that.  :)

I loved the mock 3D effect in Thanatos, it was really some eye-candy for the era. And burning villagers was just great fun.

The villagers were asking for it!, constantly shooting arrows at you, and whatnot.



1) I just watched a bit of "Glo-Bones" and noticed that you used Esquivel! I love Esquivel. :)

2) NATAS LIVES (Mr. Heap):

I didn't know who did it to be honest. It used to be the theme music to Fortean TV, a great little show that dealt with bizarre phenomenon but unfortunately didn't run for long. The Glo-Bones video used to have the moon music from Baron Munchausen and some Running Man on it, but I redubbed it recently, the new soundtrack seems suitable.

Duh! The links to the sub-sections on my Alien Storm page were broken. They are now fixed so you can see the various background, sprite and intro graphics.
