Elite Systems & Manic Miner's Matthew Smith Join Forces To Create A Brand New Game
Three decades ago Matthew Smith set the home computer gaming world on fire with his run-away successive titles, Manic Miner and Jet Set Willy. Despite departing from the games industry for quite some time, Elite Systems havs just announced that the pair will soon unite to create an all new title in the near future.
The two iconic ZX Spectrum titles from this British gaming veteran were not his only outings in the gaming world, and are clearly not the last. While very little is known about this upcoming project as of yet, Elite Systems recent blog post and accompanying video suggests a Kickstarter is fast approaching to fund their efforts.
All we can do now is speculate and anticipate further updates from their newly established website, http://matthewsmith.elite-systems.co.uk/
What do you think this duo will bring? Something with strong ties to our gaming roots, or something as radical as Manic Miner was back in 1983?
