Spillmesse 2025 var en helt glimrende opplevelse. Vi har snakket med arrangører og utstillere, og her er vår store rapport fra messen:

Anbefales!

Simon the Sorcerer kombinerte LucasArts-aktige eventyr med erkebritisk humor på nittitallet. Nå har det fått en ny oppfølger, som vi har testet:

We just published an interview with Frank Gasking from @gamesthatwerent.com about their preservation efforts. Interview by @retrogamingpappa.bsky.social . Games that Weren't are doing a lot of really valuable work preserving video game history.

Nå vet vi når The A1200 slippes, og cirka hvor mye den vil koste.

Norske Mattis Folkestad ( @machineboy.bsky.social ) har laget spill som Milkmaid of the Milky Way, og nå jobber han med kortspillet Cascadou. Vi har fått noen ord med ham.

Her er en liten messerapport fra Amiga40 i Tyskland, skrevet av @zendar.bsky.social fra @badgerpunch.com

Neste uke tar vi for oss Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six. Noen som døde ofte?

We're having fun with fellow Amiga retro geeks at Amiga40 in Mönchengladbach, Germany! 🕹️❤️ #amiga #retrogamedev #amiga40

Kim fortsetter å servere umulige(?) fredagsquizer. Hvor mange av disse spillene klarer du å identifisere?

Det er nok en gang en «cd SPILL»-mandag, og nå tar vi for oss 3D RTSen Total Annihilation. Mange takk til Roar Granevang som hadde flotte minner å dele med oss denne gangen.

Fellow preservationist Robert Robichaud got in touch to share that he was recently involved in a game preservation project regarding Norway's first adventure games. A great article worth checking out: spillhistorie.no/2025/09/11/n...

If you're an Amiga veteran, you've probably used X-Copy at some point (it's okay, we all did it). We just published a cool interview with Cachet veteran (and current KryoFlux developer) Christian Bartsch, about X-Copy and some of the weird stuff that happened at X-Copy publisher Cachet.

Me and @retrogamingpappa.bsky.social had a chat with Roger Dean a couple of months ago, and today we published our interview. Among many things, we spoke about the cancelled Black Onyx game he was working on with Henk Rogers.

Vi har snakket med en av spillhistoriens store legender, den britiske kunstneren Roger Dean.

Deadly Days: Roadtrip er et vanedannende roguelite-actionspill der mye avgjøres av hvor flink du er til å pakke.

Another fun interview at @spillhistorie.no . This time @retrogamingpappa.bsky.social spoke with Robert Zalot about his time as a game tester in the nineties. He talks about testing games for the Lynx at Epyx, as well as his time in EA's GOD Squad.

Gleder meg til å si: "Er det dette jeg betaler 2 kroner og 25 øre episoden for???!"

Fredag igjen! Her er vår oppsummering av retrorelaterte spillnyheter fra uken som har gått. Pluss litt andre ting, som vanlig.

Rogue is one of the most influential games of all time. It became so popular when it was released for UNIX-based systems in 1980 that it created its own genre, which we still know as ‘roguelike games’. spillhistorie.no/2024/07/14/t...

American Jim Sachs is one of the true greats in the area of classic pixel art. He is known for his work on the Amiga, where he was responsible for the graphics in one of the platform’s most important system sellers, Defender of the Crown, as well as Ports of Call. spillhistorie.no/2024/09/13/l...
