There's nothing like a damn good shoot 'em up, especially one that is inspired by the era of the 80's and 90's classics. So here we are with Twin Tiger Shark by Wide Pixel Games, a game that is true to its roots and looks to be an awesome title indeed. With an online score system, wide screen control rotation support, 6 stages, lots of enemies, big bosses, 3 difficulty settings, 3 weapon types and some cool power ups, this is a top quality shoot 'em up that we'd recommend.

As we said before throughout the years there have been many Pac-Man games mentioned on Indie Retro News, from the Pac-Man Xtreme romhack, to Jr. Pac-Man on the Intellivision, a Pac-Man game on the Pico-8, and even the latest Pac-Hack on the ZX Spectrum (All of these vary in style to the 1980's hit classic that can still be found today sitting as a port beside an Atari 2600). Well ZX owners Pac-Man has been mentioned once again, as we've just found out there's a super smooth version of Pac-Man released on the ZX Spectrum called Pac Man The Curse of the Slimers.

In 1981 Williams Electronics released Defender, an all time classic multi-directional arcade shooter featuring 2D graphics as you defeat waves of aliens while protecting astronauts on the surface. But what if I told you there's an upcoming game by Black Hole that is very much inspired by that game but looks oh so good and coming to the C64 would you be interested? You would, good! Welcome to 'Flying Saucers', an early teased preview of a Defender style game that is coming to the C64 at some point in the near future.

We've certainly featured a lot of Atari XL/XE games through the years, from the upcoming Prince of Persia port, to the great Monty on the Run conversion released in 2019.

One game that many people remember so fondly that's all about serving patrons in a pub, was that classic game 'Tapper'; a game by Marvin Glass and Associates released by Bally Midway, all those years ago in the Arcades in 1983. In fact this game also appeared on the Atari 2600, Atari 8bit, Amstrad CPC, BBC MICRO, C64, MSX and yes even the ZX Spectrum. So why is this fine Arcade game getting a mention yet again on IRN? Old_Bob has been had at work with his Amiga conversion, and since yesterday has released an updated demo for you to try!

As the C64 was my first computer you would think it was the system which first introduced me to the magic of play at home video gaming. But actually it wasn't, because before my family brought home the bread bin that day, I’d been playing some of the Nintendo Game & Watch handheld games. Including my favourite: Mario’s Cement Factory. For almost as long as I can remember I’ve been wanting to make a game for the C64 - But apart from some BASIC text adventures and messing around in SEUCK, I never quite managed it until now.

Prepare to have your minds blown, especially if you have an Amiga! As we've been told by a good friend of ours that the 1981 classic Arcade game of ' Galaga ', has been released on the Commodore Amiga as a Monochrome tiny demake. This game originally developed and published by Namco Japan and by Midway in North America in 1981, as the sequel to the 1979 game Galaxian. Puts you in control of a mighty spaceship that must destroy waves of enemy formations that are out to destroy or capture you!

While many of you are eagerly awaiting the Amstrad version of The Sword of Ianna, or have played the excellent Amstrad Plus overhaul of Ghosts 'n Goblins, then there's another game you might be interested in playing and again an Arcade port, and that's the upcoming Amstrad game 'Alcon' developed by Abalore. Now if you've ever played Alcon in the Arcades or as it was known on the 8bit machines as Slap Fight, you'll be pleased to know this version is being developed as close to the Arcade as possible, while keeping the spirit of the 8-bit version intact. (Yes the 8-bit original was still a good game too)

Once again Saberman has contacted us, as he has told us Retro Bones Games have released a new Amiga tech demo of their upcoming game' Verge World - Icarus Rising '; a rather unusual looking game that's coming to the Amiga, Atari, Mac and Mega Drive, in which you play as Nix, a smuggler on a dry desert planet. As noted from our previous write up, Verge World Icarus Rising will not only have its own story, but will be played in a third person perspective with the possibility of using open Fractal or Voxels.

More than $100 million has now been spent on content for the Oculus Quest, less than a year after the standalone headset first launched.
With its first anniversary May 21, Oculus revealed that more than $100 million has been spent on Quest software in that first year.
As a follow up to last week's news that more than 20 Quest games have earned $1 million in revenue, Oculus added that ten titles have now surpassed more than $2 million -- including PolyArc's Moss and Cloudhead Games' Pistol Whip.
Yesterday, Superhot Team said that Superhot VR has now passed two million unit sales, making it one of the most successful VR titles to date.

This game released recently, is a side-scrolling collect'em up whereby it is your mission set by the Queen to retrieve all the Ant eggs!
