The Eternal Castle [REMASTERED] - CGA Animated graphics with Another World vibe comes to Steam


I've played many games growing up, games released on the Amstrad right up to the modern day PC. But there's one game I've never heard of and wish I had, and that was The Eternal Castle; a game apparently released in 1987 as an emotional experience, set as an original masterpiece with the playability of Another World, Prince of Persia and even Flashback. This game with eye popping CGA graphics has not only been remastered as an ambitious attempt to modernize an old classic in order to keep its memory alive, but it's now available on Steam!

If you were keeping an eye on the site recently, you would've seen that Gazzapper's 'ZX Spectrum BASIC Jam' had ended for entries and provided you with over 24 games to play, all designed with Sinclair BASIC. However there's another game jam that has finished with still votes to be given, and that's Kronbits 'CGA JAM', which again gave users the opportunity to create a game as long as it fits the criteria of the competition, in this case as a Color Graphics Adapter (CGA) game.

CGA: Christmas Game Arcade - A tiny racer but full of CGA fun!


I can't believe we missed out on this one on Christmas day, as not only is it a jolly good racer but it takes us back to a time of 1980's CGA graphics. A time when games such as Golden Axe, Defender of the Crown and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom where shown in 4 colour detail on IBM's first graphics card! So yes, we were pretty excited when we came across abstauber's CGA free racing game of' ' CGA: Christmas Game Arcade ' in which you need to race along a highway, picking up presents that have accidentally been dropped by Santa!

Red Olympus - Retro inspired shooter in glorious CGA ( Recommended )


The Gravedigger gave me the heads up in my email today to check out his latest action packed retro
inspired first person shooter called Red Olympus - A CGA Death Rampage. Honouring those classic first person shooters such as Wolfenstein, Red Olympus has a great visual style with chiptune music in a mission to find and kill Ovsky, a russian criminal leader who turned the south of The City into his own domain.
