My game Wasp! has been reviewed in the UK retro magazine called Retro Gamer. I hope they don't mind me attaching a copy of it here. For those in the UK its at the top of page 99 in edition 66.

It scored 72%. Quiet respectable for a "C" game on an 8-bitter .

Two parcels have arrived containing all the Wasp! carts for the pre-order. Pictures will be added to the pre-order thread later. All in all a maximum Wasp! day .

That's cool. I like the "story" they came up with!

The game's real backstory is on the back of the 7800's 25th birthday box.

Congrats! Good to see that article but I think they could have been a little more generous with the score.

Thanks Kroogur. To be honest, I'm very happy with it. The game was about two weeks of work to code. It probably uses more than 90% of the 7800's "C" development system library and it gives me something to aim at for future releases. Onwards and upwards as they say .

Yep, I know. I have the box and I like that story too.
