Return to Dark Castle - An extremely challenging retro classic is getting a PC remaster!

Ask anyone who's played Dark Castle back in the 80's on systems such as an Amiga or a Mega Drive, and they'd probably tell you that it was a very frustrating platformer with one of the most annoying character controls in a classic game. But ask anyone who's played it on a Macintosh however, and it would be given high praise for sound and graphics, with some even saying they didn't know the classic monochrome Macintosh was capable of animations of such quality! Well depending on how you feel about the game, you may be interested to know that as of next month you'll be able to play 'Return to Dark Castle'.  A re-imagined retro platformer of precision, peril, and persistence — featuring every level from Dark Castle and Beyond Dark Castle plus 50 brand-new punishing rooms rebuilt for modern systems by Z Sculpt Entertainment and Ludit. 

The Internet Archive adds early Macintosh software to its ever growing library

Some time ago we mentioned some of the best websites to play classic retro systems online. Systems such as the CPC, NES, MSX and loads more were completely playable directly through your browser. One such site called "The Internet Archive" had a massive game list from the 1970's through to the 1990's, all emulated in JSMAME containing hundreds of titles from text based software to games. Well they've just gone one big step further and have now added early Macintosh Emulation to their ever growing archive.
