Jack The Nipper, Monty Mole, Zool, Bounder, Thing On A Spring, Supercars, Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge, Switchblade, Trailblazer.
You will now either be:
- Feeling slightly giddy and nostalgic, or
- Wondering if these are the names of games – they haven’t got colons, meaningless subtitles, odd capiTalisatION and the use of ‘z’ where the letter ‘s’ should be.
Ian Stewart, founder of 1990’s development team Gremlin Graphics, is to resurrect the label as ‘Gremlin Presents’. They will be producing titles for iOS devices and the first game in to be released will be ‘Bounder’s World’.
The 8 bit classic bouncer has been updated to take advantage of the iOS platform and will be coming soon to iPod, iPhone & iPad. Level after level of bouncing bonkers!
Note to younger readers: Back in the 1990’s gaming was a far more innocent past time and ‘bouncing bonkers’ meant a ball jiggling across a landscape, it does not mean there is a sexy, God Of War mini-game.
