People Want Your Opinion!

posted by nix./site


I guess you have something to say about the works on the recent parties. Okay, actually, I know you do, right? Then, here's a nice chance to get known in a lot of upcoming diskmags (included, but not limited to Lighter). People want your opinion!

You just click on this nicely crafted link, pick a prod you like and leave a review on it. A signed one, of course. Here's a few rules you need to note while you're writing, though:
1) Leave your thoughts on a specific work. If you rev the compo as a whole, this will be plucked out.
2) Anonymous reviews will be plucked out as well.
3) Swearing is somewhat allowed, but not encouraged.

If you want to know what you're reviewing exactly, here's a reference to most (if not all) stuff met here:
Chaos Constructions 2012 Graphics
Next Castle Party 2012 Graphics
Next Castle Party 2012 Pack (online)
Next Castle Party 2012 Pack (TR-DOS)

The game reviews may be accepted till the 9th of December.

Brand New Game: Dead By Dawn by Malcolm Kirk

posted by nix./site


ScreenieDead By Dawn is a new 3D adventure game heavily inspired after the cult movie called Evil Dead 2: playing as Bruce Charcoal, you need to find twelve pages of a spellbook so you could seal the evil you've accidentally unleashed back. The controls may be a bit unorthodox, so here's a rundown of the game complete with the author's description, controls list and download links.

To make things quick, you can download the original pack or Goodboy's disk version.

Brand New Game: Dave Infuriators by Black Jet

posted by nix./site


ScreenieOkay, here's a new platform game from England, which is completely unorthodox to anything you may have played on Spectrum before. It's controlled with only two buttons (spacebar for jumping and M for changing direction), it's full of traps, it's pretty hard to beat the clock or your own record (although that depends on what difficulty you choose).

Download it here.

Somewhat late news coming up! :)

A new game from Zeroteam (Slovakia) was released recently. Its' gameplay resembles Lines: you need to find a requested combination of two blocks on the field so it could be cleared out. Clearing out the entire row on the field will bring you more new blocks.

You can download either the original .tap flie or tiboh's TR-DOS adaptation.
