We are incredibly excited to announce that Automania Remastered will be coming to PlayStation 5! This is a huge milestone for us, and we can't wait to bring this beloved classic to a whole new audience on one of the most popular gaming platforms in the world. We are committed to delivering a high-quality remaster that stays true to the original while adding new features and enhancements, and we believe that the PS5 will provide the perfect platform to showcase all of the hard work we've put into this project. Stay tuned for more updates on our PS5 release plans, and thank you again for your amazing support!
We did it! Thanks to the amazing support from the retro gaming community, our Kickstarter campaign for Automania Remastered on ZX Spectrum Next has been successfully funded! With your support, we will be able to produce physical copies of the game for ZX Spectrum Next, and make it available to everyone who missed out on the KS3 campaign. Thank you again for your incredible support - we couldn't have done this without you!
If you are not a Spectrum Next KS3 backer and want to play Automania Remastered
on you Speccy Next (or compatible), or you want to get your hands
on a physical (boxed) edition of Automania Remastered for ZX Spectrum Next, now
is your chance.
We just launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund the production
of physical copies of Automania Remastered for ZX Spectrum Next, and to make the
game available to everyone who missed out on the KS3 campaign. The campaign
is already off to a great start, with lots of support from the retro gaming
community, but we still have a way to go to reach our funding goal. If you want
to get your hands on this remastered classic for your ZX Spectrum Next, or if you
want to support our work and help us bring more retro games to life, please
check out our Kickstarter page and consider backing the project. Every bit of
support counts, and we can't wait to share this game with you all!
We're excited to finally go live with our brand-new website! Here you'll find the latest news about our games, studio updates and everything retro gaming. Bookmark us and check back often — big things are coming.
The time has come to announce another retro project we're working on in cooperation with
Alternative Software!
We've acquired the rights to remaster the legendary 8-bit Wally Week game
series. Over the next year or so, you'll once again be able to experience Automania,
Pyjamarama, Everyone's a Wally, Herbert's Dummy Run, and Three Weeks in Paradise - this
time with enhanced graphics, improved sound, and brand-new extra content. If you were a fan of
Wally (and Herbert) back in the 80s, get ready to relive the fun all over again.
But we
won't stop there. After completing the remasters, we'll also be creating a brand-new Wally
Week Adventure - the biggest ever - spanning multiple environments and even different time periods.
The games will be developed for PC and for ZX Spectrum Next, with both enhanced and 16-color versions
available (for all you hardcore retro gamers!). Whether you played the Wally Week series back
in the day, or you're discovering it for the first time, be sure to follow us for regular
updates on this project and our other upcoming titles.
We'll be releasing the games in
chronological order, starting with Automania, which you can expect by the end of
this year! And, if you are a backer of ZX Spectrum Next Kickstarter campaign that just ended,
then you will receive Automania Remastered with your brand new ZX Spectrum Next!
After numerous tests and experiments, we're excited to confirm that Mystic Land will include an option for smooth party movements and turns. And we're not talking about pixel zoom tricks or pre-rendered image pans - this is a true 3D environment that will make you feel like you've stepped right into a vibrant fantasy world. Prefer the classic old-school 2D grid-hopping style? Don't worry - the 2D engine isn't going anywhere. You'll be able to switch between engines mid-game with a single key press (yes, it's THAT simple!).
Alpha Demo v0.2 of Mystic Land: The Search for Maphaldo is now available to our Patreon Supporters. It includes a lot of bug fixes and updates, such as updated battle module, additional content and the demo is almost fully playable with keyboard and controllers.
