It hardly seems like a full year since we last wished all our readers a very Merry Christmas. Yet again, most of you are probably too busy downing the bottle of whatever-it-is that you found in the back of the cupboard, and stuffing yourself with mince pies to notice this post, but I'm still going to say it anyway. http://www.acornarcade.co.uk/comments/rss/news1163.html Hugh Robinson has contacted us to let us know that he's converted classic Acorn platformer Asylum to C, using the SDL library. With full support of original author Andy Southgate, Hugh's source code has now been released under the GPL, and is available to download from the SVN repository on the SourceForge project page. http://www.acornarcade.co.uk/comments/rss/news1156.html I figured it was about time for another oldschool review. This time I'll be talking about LASER, a game written by Mike Goldberg (and his cat) as part of his series of graphics programming articles in Acorn Computing magazine. The game was released on the subscription disc for the February 1994 issue of the magazine, along with a level editor so users could make their own puzzles. http://www.acornarcade.co.uk/comments/rss/news1148.html Previously, on Bob and Trev: Resurrection... http://www.acornarcade.co.uk/comments/rss/news1140.html Previously, on Bob and Trev: Resurrection... http://www.acornarcade.co.uk/comments/rss/news1139.html Previously, on Bob and Trev: Resurrection... http://www.acornarcade.co.uk/comments/rss/news1136.html Previously, on Bob and Trev: Resurrection... http://www.acornarcade.co.uk/comments/rss/news1135.html Previously, on Bob and Trev: Resurrection... http://www.acornarcade.co.uk/comments/rss/news1143.html David Braben, co-author of Elite, has been interviewed by the BBC technology programme Click at the Science Museum's Game On exhibition.
