Dizzy will always get a full feature on Indie Retro News, from new fan games, to those that have been found lost in the back of The Oliver Twins loft. Well after Florinthedwarf's big exclusive preview that he did only recently with high praise indeed, we are pleased to announce that as of the 18th of December, you can play the latest release in the Dizzy line up as Wonderful Dizzy; The first completely new Dizzy adventure game from the Oliver Twins in 26 years for the ZX Spectrum.
If you’re reading this, thank you for taking some time off Cyberpunk 2077, which is probably the hottest game at the time of this review. Despite all the wait (and the controversies), I’m curious to see it lives up to the hype or not. Until then, why not take a look with us at a game based on the very beginnings of the cyberpunk genre? I’m talking about Neuromancer. Neuromancer is an adventure game developed by Interplay and published by Electronic Arts. It was released originally in 1988 for the Commodore 64 and Apple II computers and the following year for the Amiga, Apple IIgs and DOS.
Another heads up today, as thanks to Saberman and an update from the developer in the RedPill Game Creator group, we've been told Third_Knight aka Czorny, has released a demo for his in development Amiga game using the RedPill Software called 'Putter'. Although the game doesn't yet have a release date, this demo gives us an early glimpse of the game including a number of levels you can play through as a teaser to the full game.
The Amiga news still isn't done with us yet, as after featuring games such as Scourge of the Underkind, and Super Metal Hero, here comes another Doom clone announcement update to keep you company. If you remember our previous article regarding the work in progress project by KK/Altair to bring Dread to the Amiga 500, which is a clone of DOOM. Then as of these last few months the creator has done another video tease but this time showing us The Intro, Menu and More.
It was some time ago now that we mentioned Jonathan Woods 'Parallaxian'; A stunning "next generation" shoot-em-up-bomb-em-up game for the Commodore 64, which sadly at the time never reach its £12,500 goal, even though it did reach a half way point. Well fast forward to this month however and if you were still keen to play this game, will be pleased to know the creator has launched a promo page, a page which gives us an extra glimpse at this stunning new game in development for the Commodore 64 and The C64 and, in native mode, for the Commodore 128.

| A new Dizzy game? That's 'wonderful' news! |
During 2016 and into 2017 Wayne Ashworth and Magnus had been developing a new game called ' Scourge of the Underkind ' for 1 Meg OCS Amiga's and above. It was shown off many times as a rather wicked looking top down arcade action game with coin and key collection that is very similar to that classic game Chaos Engine. Well after a number of developments that have been noted via the Commodore Amiga Facebook group, we are here to reveal with an exclusive video, just how incredible the game looks thus far including new features.
