In the Shadow of CPC
In the 1980s, one microcomputer left a lasting impression on an entire generation of gamers: the Amstrad CPC. With its bright colours, shrill music, legendary loading times and cult games, for many of us it was a gateway to video games, creativity and imagination.
A tribute book entirely devoted to Amstrad CPC games. Through a careful selection of iconic titles, this project traces the history, creativity and soul of a machine that had a profound impact on European video games.

Great book about the early years of Psygnosis (up until 1993) with lots of interviews. With lots of screenshots and package-shots, this also works perfectly as a coffee-table book. Highly recommended. Delivery was really quick and in a sturdy package, so the book arrived in perfect condition.

This is the second book that I've bought from Editions64k and I'm yet to be disappointed. The quality of the book and the passion that has gone into creating it is wonderful. The book is a lot bigger than I expected too. It's jam packed with so many logos and has the great addition of stories and explanations from some of the artists..
I bought this book for my boyfriends as a Christmas Present and he was over the moon with it. We've spent hours pouring over the book together spotting our favourite demo logos on Amiga and C64 (though there's a variety of platforms covered!).
The demoscene needs more recognition and it's awesome to see it's being docimented in these books. This one is definitely a must have for any demo art lovers book collection!
