Bluesky is a thriving place at the moment for retro computer people. I'm spending a lot more time there. Please check it out and maybe give me a follow. Very 'Twitter' like experience, but a lot less negative, toxic stuff there! Hope to see you soon. bsky.app/profile/kevedw…

I think I still have an @ARM 1 second processor in my loft somewhere too. Started writing Lander and Zarch on it. The MUL instruction didn't work until ARM 3, the released version - which is why those games didn't use it.

Had another great catch-up today with some old Software Creations friends. I've not seen Tony Williams for over 20 years so it was great to see him again after all this time. Group photo from left to right:- Tim Follin, Mike Follin, Dean B, Tony Williams and myself.

I think the reason why LEGO James Bond, the video game, never happened is because LEGO didn’t go ahead with sets for the franchise - excluding the Aston Martin. That may well have been because they thought it was more adult themed. That video is a mock up by the cutscene team.

LEGO Star Wars : The Skywalker Saga ( Base game ) is currently FREE on the EPIC Games Store! Thoroughly recommended. I am biased as this was the last game I worked on before retiring. store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/lego-s…
