Howdy everyone! Long time no speak. Just to let you know that unfortunately retrounite.co.uk is sadly no more... however, RetroUnite lives on at retrounite.wordpress.com! Things like links and images might be a little wonky while we renovate, but we're working on it!

Starflight is a game whose incredible scope is all the more impressive for the hardware it ran on. They don't make space games quite like this any more! retrounite.co.uk/starflight-spa…

Secret Agent HD is a phenomenal example of how to do a respectful "HD remaster" of a classic game from days gone by. Authentic to the original yet feeling smoother and slicker than ever before, this is a fine example of how it's done. retrounite.co.uk/secret-agent-h…

If you're interested in getting to know the Dizzy series but always felt a bit daunted about where to start, Dizzy the Adventurer for NES (also available on @evercaderetro) is a great game with which to get to grips with this classic British series. retrounite.co.uk/dizzy-the-adve…

I bet many of you played Jill of the Jungle back in the day. But how many of you registered your copy and played Jill Goes Underground? Here's a full playthrough -- and a chat about the shareware model. retrounite.co.uk/retro-select-j…

Check this beauty out. A short play-through of Hover Bovver remake for scramble/galaxian hardware! dropbox.com/s/6v1pva07b621… by @llamasoft_ox using @8bitworkshop . Love this. So good to see new games for old hardware - especially arcade boards. Excuse the poor playing skill 😃

Today on his Atari ST A to Z series, Editor Pete looks at a public domain version of Q*Bert -- which seems like a good opportunity to talk a bit about the thriving PD scene from the 16-bit home computer era! retrounite.co.uk/qbert-atari-st…

If you play but one Intellivision game, make it Tower of Doom. While other home computer and console games were well established by this point, it's still impressive to see a game like this running on '70s tech. retrounite.co.uk/the-a-to-z-of-…

Retro gaming joysticks! They're cool. Here's ten of the best. What are your favourites? retrounite.co.uk/10-of-the-best…

Those who play together, stay together, or something. So here's 5 great retro co-op games to share with a loved one this Valentine's Day! retrounite.co.uk/5-co-op-games-…

It's easy to write off Graffiti's 1995 racer Screamer as a Ridge Racer ripoff. But it's much more than that -- and despite its aged graphics, well worth a play today! retrounite.co.uk/screamer-much-…

We've decided that there's not enough good writing about #Intellivision games online -- so we're going to do something about it! Here's a look at Cloudy Mountain, originally one of the first licensed D&D video games! retrounite.co.uk/intellivision-…

Kicking off a new series on the very specific types of platformers found on '80s 8-bit microcomputers, today we take a look at Dynamite Dan for the ZX Spectrum! retrounite.co.uk/platforms-and-…

Today we celebrate the golden age of games media with 10 of the best UK games mags from "back in the day"... according to Editor Pete, anyway. Any of your own favourites we missed? retrounite.co.uk/10-of-the-best…

Biing! Sex, Intrigue and Scalpels is a cult classic of German gaming -- and if you've got the stomach for its crass, lewd and occasionally dark sense of humour, there's a lot of fun to be had with this strategic time management title! retrounite.co.uk/biing-sex-intr…

Full Throttle All-American Racing ain't Gremlin's best work by any stretch of the imagination. But it at least has some interesting ideas, some of which work better than others. retrounite.co.uk/full-throttle-…

With Sol Cresta on the way at the end of the month -- complete with a physical release from @LimitedRunGames -- it seems like a prime time to take a look at its predecessor Terra Cresta, wouldn't you say? retrounite.co.uk/arcade-archive…

Gateway to Apshai is one of the earliest examples of an action RPG -- and a game that still holds up really well today! Can you survive all 8 levels? retrounite.co.uk/gateway-to-aps…

The Dreamcast might not be quite as cheap to collect for as some other consoles these days, but you can still get some right bangers for under twenty quid. Here's 10 of the best! retrounite.co.uk/10-of-the-best…
