The "The Games Machine Edition"...it's taken me just over two weeks but I managed to squeeze some of the most iconic games characters created for the Amiga. More of a design exercise, I had to rework some of the sprites but the end result is decent enough.

A celebration of the machine's power and programmers' skills.
Please no comments such as: "why is X, Y, Z game not there"...I chose the ones who were better suited...I made difficult choices...and some didn't fit on a 1.5cmx1.5cm key! :D

Some shots:

Hi everyone and thank you very much for being part of this project and supporting it with such energy and dedication, you've all been great.

Please be patient, there are quite a few things to sort out starting with Kickstarter moving the funds across once all the fees, VAT etc...have been deducted then I'll kick into action with whatever is left of the money. :D

If you don't hear from me for the next 4-5 days please don't panic...it doesn't mean I've retired to the Bahamas...it's just that I need to organise myself first...lots and lots to do.

Thank you again for the incredible support!

Thanks, it's been a lot of hard work (and more still to come) but it'd have been lost without you guys. ;)

Forgot to say.. Don't be surprised if inside your box you'll find one or two extra keys...they're just freebies which I'll include until stock last. :)

1st update:

Kickstarter are trying to get in contact with some supporters whose card is not allowing the collection of the pledges. This is going to slow things down a bit.

I'll keep you posted. :)

Thanks. :-)
