Dragon’s Lair: The Movie - An incredible game classic aims for an animated movie Kickstarter success!

Originally released in 1983 was an epic laserdisc video game that many people still remember today, and that game was Dragon's Lair, which was originally published by Cinematronics. It was so special, in the fact that not only was it a game, but it allowed you to play in an interactive experience in a cartoon animation. You didn't just watch a cartoon, you played it! What would be a simple of task of selecting the right actions at the right time, was usually met with certain cartoon death. But today's news is a very special Kickstarter announcement, as Don Bluth and Gary Goldman are coming together once again to bring the classic arcade game Dragon's Lair to the big screen.

More incredible Dizzy artwork from PIT

Who doesn't love that lovable little egg of Dizzy? He's always on a fantastic adventure solving many puzzles while trying to avoid having his egg cracked by the evil Wizard Zaks.

Although this is a fan made side scroller shooter made by Mikael Persson using Backbone, it was only developed in just three weeks.

Simpsons Treehouse of horror - Excellent free Beat em up based on a hit classic!

Originally released in 1991, The Simpsons Arcade game which was based on the original cartoon series featured non stop beat em up action with all your favourite characters.

Each character had set moves and personalities fitting perfectly with the cartoon. Bart had his skateboard and Marge had her hoover, you could even combine the two characters together all in the aim to get Maggie back from Mr Burns. It wasn't an easy game and having up four players really helped, especially with the amount of bad guys that you needed to beat up. Well fast forward to now and we have a special treat to show you in the form of Simpsons Treehouse of horror, which is a brand new game using the OpenBor engine that you just have to play!
