Impossabubble. ZX SPECTRUM GAME REVIEW
May 17th, 2019 CPC4EVA Dave Clarke, never heard of him you say ? Fair call, as Impossabubble, for the ZX Spectrum, was Dave’s very first 8-bit game released in 2018.

IMPERIAL MAHJONG – Amstrad CPC game review
February 16th, 2019 CPC4EVA Most 8-bit developers these days are out there releasing as many ‘shoot em ups’ and platformers as they can.

From “Tennis on TV” to the Global eSports Phenomenon of Today
