It has been a long time since we last saw an issue of Sunteam’s ZX Spectrum Gamer, the previous one being released in 2013, but issue 4 is now available. It contains reviews of Nemesis the Warlock, Ninja Commando and The Nowotnik Puzzle, as well as regular features and its typical less-than-serious attitude. Issue 4 can be downloaded or read…
Designed with the Vega+ and Vega in mind, this is another “trademark” game design oddity. Give it a play and see what you think.

All fantastic games with much time and thought put into them. And so the trend continues with…
Globus is a new ‘old’ release by Paco Lafuente. The game was developed between 1986 and 1987 and was unpublished until recently. The game looks a lot like Pac-Man minus the collecting of pills. Instead you have to try and get to the left side of the screen, collect your energy charge and make your way to the right side to discharge without getting…
Sunteam has released a new ZX Spectrum styled shoot ’em up for Windows. Feeling like a cross between Space Invaders and Missile Command, you have to protect pods from enemy fire, by either destroying the enemies before they can shoot, or intercepting their bullets with your seemingly invincible ship (which slowly follows the horizontal position of your targetting cursor).
