The game city is divided in four zones; Goody´s hideout, the general store in which Goody buys the tools with the money collected; the construction zone, the jail, where Goody is imprisoned if he uses the tools in the wrong order, a haunted mansion full of ghosts and books, the madrilean “El Retiro Park” the best place to take a boat trip, the sewers and the Bank.

Deuteros X - A Strategy remake that was in the works!


Game Type : Space Strategy
Game Info from our previous article : Designed by Ian Bird and released in 1991. The game is set some 800 years after the Millennium, in a time when mankind has won the struggle to make the Earth habitable again but lost its spacefaring capabilities, which it is seeking to regain. This is no ordinary space game and so far there has been no game like it since.The object of the game is to mine resources, research new tech and to colonize further out into the solar system. Don't expect amazing graphics but do expect deep thoughtful gameplay with thousands of drones fighting away at each other as you battle to defend yourself against the Methanoids.  If you decide to give up it's rather satisfying hitting the Self Destruct button, the nuke button oh and you can even chill out with the Music Box which comes later. This is a game NOT to be missed
Remake News : It came as a surprise yesterday to find out that Deuteros was going to have a remake called Deuteros X. Simply searching for a Deuteros wallpaper was met with a number of screenshots that I have never seen before and it turned out that a remake was in progress, however it has recently stalled due to the developer's lack of willing to commit. Which is a shame as other programmers need the files to keep the Remake going. But from what i've seen of the work in progress and temporary screenshots it looked like a worthy remake and got me all tingly inside, lets hope it does end up being finished!
Release : TBA(Currently Stalled)

Damage: The Sadistic Butchering Of Humanity - Brutal Amiga beat em up (PC Playable)


Game Type : Arcade, Beat em up
Launcher Developer : The Company.pl 
Game Info : Damage: The Sadistic Butchering Of Humanity was released between 1993/96 by Suomi-Peli and came with a lot of violence.

So if you fancy something with a bit of gore, then check this out, but do keep your kids away from it ;) Thanks to The Company.pl, which have just released/updated to version 2.6 you can now play this on your PC with higher graphical filters.

K240 - The sequel to the amazing Utopia is here for the PC


Game Type : RTS, Space Strategy
Launcher Developer : The Company.pl 
Game Info : Released in 1994 came a game that almost took the throne from Utopia, a space strategy game with such brilliance in gameplay, that many could not put this one down. For me, Utopia far excelled over this game as it was much easier to use, however K240 was not so easy. Utopia also had you on different planets building, researching and moving units into enemy areas. But in this game the title comes about in the fact that you are based in a sector of space called K240 in the year 2380, the focus of this game is to build colonies on a clusters of asteroids and mine them for ore. However all was not peaceful as you spent most of the time fighting against several different races hostile aliens with similar motives. Did you know that K240 had another sequel called Fragile Allegiance, though this time being a PC remake of the game but with improved graphics and user interface. Still a good game, but not one of my favourites! Thanks to The Company.pl, which have just released/updated to version 2.6 you can now play this on your PC with higher graphical filters.
