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.

Really enjoyable history of Psgynosis, with great interviews from developers, graphic and muscial artists. Detailing the various development companies and relations between them along with the games published themselves. All with high quality pictures and a nice touch of QR codes to follow external video links for various interviews.

Bonjour, je sais que le bouquin n'est pas encore sorti mais juste une petite suggestion : pourquoi ne pas créer une chaine Youtube "Edition 64K" avec une playlist des différentes démos présentes dans les bouquins ? Ca éviterais de scanner un QRCode pour aller voir la démo en question. Merci pour tout le travail et Viva Amigaaaaaaa !!!!

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.
