System Shock 1 Remastered gets Pre-Alpha gameplay footage and it looks GOOD!


In 1994 the developers Looking Glass and the publisher Origin Systems released the incredible game of ' System Shock '. A first person action RPG set aboard a space station in a cyberpunk vision of the year 2072, that even at the time of its release had a great 3D Engine, with physics and complex gameplay. As such it is a highly regarded collectors item, but it is nothing compared to what you about to see in the latest pre-alpha gameplay footage, from the developers Night Dive Studios for the System Shock Remaster powered by the Unity Engine!

Donkey Kong - Atari 8-bit Arcade HACK is in development & Atari 5200 conversion released


In 1981 Nintendo released one of the most famous games of all time, and that game was ' Donkey Kong '. A game in which you played as Mario that must avoid obstacles across a number of platforms, with sometimes a hammer in hand to save a damsel in distress from a giant ape called Donkey Kong. That same game appeared as a port on a number of systems and it is the Atari 8bit version that is getting a hack by darryl1970 with a number of tweaks and enhancements.

Book of Demons‏ - A very unique paper hack n slash dungeon crawler


We don't feature many hack and slash games on Indie Retro News, so I thought it would be a good time to give a shout out to Thing Trunk's hack and slash RPG dungeon crawler of ' Book of Demons ', which is coming to the PC via Steam second half of 2016. Unlike the usual games of its type such as Diablo, Grim Dawn and Path of Exile, this one is rather unique. As it features twists in the basic gameplay mechanics, paper cut-out graphics, unprecedented accessibility, and a dark theme intertwined with a fair dose of humour any fan of classic games should enjoy.

From the creator of Dizzy in the Dungeons and Dizzy Quest, comes a rather large dizzy game called ' Adventureland Dizzy ' which has 110 Screens to explore, puzzles to solve , 30 golden stars to find and graphics taken from classics such as Magicland Dizzy, Fantastic Dizzy and Spellbound Dizzy.

Moira - A Game Boy inspired spell crafting action platformer gets a Kickstarter!


Truth be told there are a lot of platformers out there at the moment that are either in development or have already been released, this is especially true when it comes to the ZX Spectrum homebrew scene. So I thought I'd give a shout out to a rather special looking action platformer, that has the inspiration from the Game Boy while also influenced by games such as Kirby’s Dream Land, Kid Dracula, Megaman and Wonder Boy. Welcome to ' Moira ', a brand new game by Onagro Studios with a demo, that is currently going through a Kickstarter campaign AND is a Steam Greenlight success!

Encounter +3DIG - Hokuto Force's next C64 release is a bit of a 3D shooter!


Hokuto Force are on form again as with all the releases so far this year, we've got another one to mention and this one is a game that is very similar to the Arcade game of Battlezone but for the C64. Called ' Encounter ' and originally released in 1984 by Paul Woakes through Novagen Software in the UK and Synapse in the USA. This is a first person shooter and features eight environments, three difficulty levels and a rather unique 3-D graphical style with scaled sprites instead of wireframe 3D graphics. Thanks to Hokuto Force they have released the disk based version, which included more features compared the Novagen one, plus a trainer, loader system replacement by Arcane, menu system improvement by Arcane and bug fixes.
