Indie Retro News celebrates over 6 years of gaming news!

It's incredible to think that this year will be another year under our belt and our anniversary of over 6 years since our gaming creation in the late part of 2011! Over many years of posting the latest gaming news on certain forums, (originally just quotes) I had a dream to create my own gaming website, one that would suit both fans of the Indie scene and the Retro scene and would reach out to as many people as possible, which includes those of you in the Amiga, Amstrad, C64, ZX Spectrum, Sega Master System, NES and even the BBC Micro scene. Thus in late 2011 Indie Retro News was born and over time has seen a huge surge in views with the end result of being a part of the top 5 retro gaming blog, the top 10 retro gaming blog, and the top popular blogs to Follow!

Sam's Journey - This beautiful looking C64 creation gets a BIG feature list!

After waking up after a rather rough night to say the least, I was hoping for something to put a smile on my face from the gaming scene. Sure enough directly from Knights of Bytes, they have finally announced the feature list for the incredible looking C64 game that is currently in development ' Sam's Journey ', of which we have featured as soon as it was first mentioned. Not just that, but the developer Chester Kollschen and team under the label Knights of Bytes is also looking for your financial support via his Patreon page.

Toki Remake - Classic Arcade game overhauled is still in development

Way back in 1989 a designer by the name of Akira Sakuma released a fantastic Arcade shooter platformer game in which you controlled an enhanced Ape transformed from a Human that could shoot energy balls from his mouth defeating strange creatures and finally defeat an evil Wizard.  It was a really good game that had a number of ports such as the NES, Sega Mega Drive, Atari Lynx, Atari ST, Amiga and Commodore 64. So you'll be pleased to know thanks to a heads up by RetroTaku, that the HD Remake by GolgothX1 is still in development and needs your financial help through a Patreon campaign.
