The ex-SEGA game developer and author Sarah Jane Avory has created some fabulous C64 games throughout the last couple of years, from the amazing Soul Force, which is a hark back to the days of Gradius, Nemesis or even R-Type, to the more recent Briley Witch Chronicles; a game which we gave a Game of the Year Award to as it excelled in gameplay for the C64. Well here we are with another C64 news update, as the same developer is not only going to be publishing a boxed edition of Zeta Wing through Bitmap Soft (5th March), but she is also developing the sequel of Zeta Wing II!
The highly anticipated release of -=Zeta Wing=- Boxed Edition is coming. Watch the trailer 2 find out when? This amazing game from @SarahJaneAvory is truly an incredible game

Featuring a wicked soundtrack, smooth scrolling and LOTS of enemies to blast away all inspired by the arcade game Gemini Wing. Zeta Wing II will hopefully feature lots of challenging stages, each with their own graphic style, lots of parallax scrolling, multiple weaponry upgrades, end of stage bosses, PAL and NTSC compatible, simultaneous music and sound effects, and all of this programmed, graphics, and sound by Sarah Jane Avory with hopeful publishing through Bitmap Soft!
