Mattias Gustavsson recently shared some interesting News on Facebook about a game called Afterworld. Even though this is the first time I have heard about this project, after a bit of investigating, it seems that this isn’t new News at all, as Mattias started work on the project way back in 2014. The game is much inspired by an old…

We rarely feature old News but I thought this one was worth a mention. Ichigo tweeted back in 2017 about a WIP Barbarian port for the Sega Master System titled Cimmerian. In 2016 a demo version was released for a competition held by SMS Power website. Visually the game looks amazing on the humble Master System, with crisp stunning graphics…
Way back in 2015 an Intellivision version of Defender of the Crown was announced on Atari Age.
