Amiga

We're sad to report that Team17 co-founder Martyn Brown has passed away. He was 57.

Brown helped establish the veteran British publisher in 1990 following the merger of 17-Bit Software and Swedish developer Team 7. Brown led Team17 alongside Michael Robinson, Debbie Bestwick, Andreas Tadic, Rico Holmes and Peter Tuleby.

He oversaw the company's glory years as a developer, producing Amiga hits such as Alien Breed, Body Blows, Superfrog, Project X and Worms – the latter of which is arguably Team17's most famous IP.

The Amiga received an impressive fan-made Star Wars game called Star Dust Wars - The Director's Cut. This game is a tribute to the legendary 1987-88 arcade game and features iconic Star Wars ships battling through locations from the original trilogy, recreated with "modern creative touches".

Here are some key points:

• Game Name: Star Dust Wars - The Director's Cut
• Developer: Electric Black Sheep
• Features: 2D sprites, FMV-style backgrounds, custom animations
• Playability: Recommended for Amiga 1200 (HDD) + FastRam and Accelerator for optimal performance.

What are your favourite memories of the original Star Wars arcade game?

You can certainly tell that Halloween is approaching as more and more creepy games with pumpkins, ghouls and ghosts start to appear for your gaming enjoyment. One such game by the developer 8080 certainly has that ghostly appeal! As they have announced that not only is 'Halloween X' a finished game ready to be played to competition, but there's also a new demo for you to try. A game in which you have fallen into a monster filled dungeon, and must find 3 golden keys to escape.
