Home Cookin’
We take a look inside the larder and find out
about what’s happening in Homebrew.
Well it’s a busy time in the homebrew kitchen. No actual releases of
course, but the chefs (developers) are cooking up such wonders (writing
games) to make your mouth water (you might like them).
AETHERBYTE
PROTOCADE
Aetherbyte have been busy working on this
multi-player mini-compilation for a special
release of their prototype HuCARDs. These
‘AbCARDs’ are looking very exciting (with snazzy
printing on them already) and it is hoped that
the prototypes will generate enough interest
to help fund a proper future release, or a nice
holiday somewhere.
Included games will be Gnop - a bat-and-ball
style game, Bytecycles - which is not unlike a
certain movie set inside a computer world (no,
not The Matrix) and Masteroids, which sounds
really dirty but isn’t.
RETROCADE
Just looking at these
AbCARDs makes me all tingly.
This CD-based compilation of games still has a fair bit of work to be
done, but a little bird tells me that there might be more content than

ULTIMA II
Ultima II ( or Ultima ][ if you want to look flashy)
is a supremely crusty old RPG which came out in
734BC or something. This project is conceived as
a simple remake of the original, and is likely to be
released as a free ROM. It’s probably going to lack
the bells and whistles of an updated remake, as it’s
not a major release project, but fans should get a
kick out of it.
Some very early shots. Graphics will be
updated but try to remain true to the original.
FROZEN UTOPIA
MYSTERIOUS SONG
This long delayed epic role-playing game is
finally finished. Or is it? I don’t think anybody
actually knows this, including the people
making it. However it will be finished at some
point in the past or future, and we can only
hope that we haven’t evolved beyond the
ability to use joypads before it is released.
JUNGLE BROS.
News had been very quiet on the Jungle
Bros. front in recent months. However, just
after writing this a new gameplay video was
released, which is a pity as it ruined a good
joke that I’ve now had to delete. Sorry.
NEUTOPIA III
Although any of this project is yet to see the
light of day, the thought of a new Neutopia
is guaranteed to excite fans of the original
and the game engine could open exciting
opportunities for more original action RPGs,
which has to be a good thing.
