We publish books that delve into the history of video games, cult machines, forgotten software, underground demos and everything else that shaped the digital era from the 1980s to the present day.
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.

just amazing! so much digital art in one package! When I was leafing through the book and looking at the logos from my old Amiga days, I could sometimes hear the intro music to these artworks. 🙂

Excellent content and materials, perhaps a bit too much packed content inside pages.

Amazing art book and a must have for all demoscene lovers. My son gifted me one for Christmas and he was blown away to see that it included a logo made by Cupid for our little comeback demo that he had seen me working on the code for days 😉
Thanks for the quality print and for preserving and spreading the demoscene spirit !
Grab your copy now, that’s a neat piece of history !
