Finishing the 2nd PCBA after a short break to move my lab to a new, more spacious location. Thank you all for your patience. Work resumes at an accelerated pace. 👋🏽🔥

One of my all-time favourite games from back in the day was Super Cars II (1991), developed by Magnetic Fields and published by Gremlin Graphics. The intro and cutscenes always reminded me a bit of the Cinemaware style - great pixel graphics and an epic soundtrack (perfect for a racing game and masterfully done by the legendary Barry Leitch). Buying upgrades like Nitro, Armor, Rockets and Mines added a strategic element; the later stages with tougher opponents really required those boosts to stand a chance. Great humour too, with the TV crew and the names of other drivers (hello there, Alain Phosphate!) - and last but not least, a superb two-player split-screen mode. The battles with my friends are still stuck in my mind. This always felt like a game perfectly suited for the Amiga.

My hair's getting long, just need to form a progressive rock band and my life is complete, maybe I'll call it 'something from Mars' ...

A friend claims they've never seen this show and that it couldn't have been popular. Am I the crazy one???

As a very genuine lover of retro games and games in general, I advocate we self curate a bit on socials. Way too much spam "are you this old?"[add random 80's pic] etc. Mute them, don't follow them ;0)
