Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1985, the Amstrad Games Book helped owners of the CPC464 and CPC664 home computers to learn more about their machines, including how to program a range of games. For many readers, their Amstrad would be the first computer they would ever use in their lives, meaning the book had a very important job to do - to introduce people to the very concept of computer programming. * * * As the original publisher Beam Software wrote: The AMSTRAD GAMES BOOK is the best new games book for your Amstrad computer. This book contains 30 different programs, each fully listed and explained. There is a complete range of games included from arcade games to simulations, adventure games, educational, strategy and more. All you need to do to enjoy this wide range of entertainment is to type the programs in. The games make the best use of the Amstrad's features, sound and graphics, including such advanced features as using interrupts from BASIC. Each program listing has been specially designed to help you, and includes a screenshot so you can see exactly what your program will look like. The unique CHEXSUM program also enables you to immediately pinpoint any typing errors you may make in entering the programs. For more advanced programmers, each program contains a full outline of what the program is doing, so that you can modify and extend these games to your own specifications! This is the easiest way to learn how to program your Amstrad. The AMSTRAD GAMES BOOK will open the door for all Amstrad owners to a fascinating new dimension of computer games, action and excitement * * * Acorn Books is proud to present its Retro Reproduction Series, a collection of classic computing works from the 1980s and 90s, lovingly reproduced in the 21st century. From standards of programming reference no self-respecting microcomputer programmer would be without, to obscure works not found in print anywhere else, these modern reprints are perfect for any connoisseur of retro computing.

This book was released on 2023-02-22 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reserved, for a long time, to a small circle of enthusiast developers, 3D is not yet commonly used by independent video games development studios (the Indies). It's for a good reason: the entrance ticket is relatively high. With Blender 2.76 (free and Open Source), you can model, animate, create a 3D rendering and have a game engine. It is a perfect tool for the beginner and for the one that wants to create a commercial game. Blender is also a complement to tools like Unity, CryEngine, Unreal Engine and other commercial engines. Thanks to the resources freely available to everybody on the Internet, you don't have to be graphic designer or programmer to create a game. You don't want to read 400 pages of theory about modeling, animating and programming in python? This book was written for you. You are invited to create directly several game projects: a platform game (like Super mario), a First-person Shooter (like Doom, Far Cry or Half-Life), a Third-person RPG (like Tomb Raider, GTA or Watch Dogs), a voxel sandbox game (like Minecraft), a car race and a flight simulator. With these projects, about a hundred recipes will help you to create any type of game. If you aren't an addict, it'll come to you sooner than you realize. It's more fun to create a game than to play with the last blockbuster. You'll be the architect of a new world, with its own rules. The only limits are the one of your imagination... High technology enthusiast, games addict and 3D geek, the author wants to honor these games that have revolutionized this domain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the years there have been very few British entrepreneurs who have made such an impact as Sir Alan Sugar, who managed to take on the Japanese electronics giants and win - no mean feat! The Amstrad CPC was undoubtedly one of his finest achievements. Released in 1984 to an already crowded market, the CPC range managed to stand out from the competition by offering an all-in-one computer package complete with a built in tape deck or disk drive, joystick, full-size keyboard and either a green-screen or colour monitor - no more fighting over the family TV! It went on to sell over 4 million units across Western Europe and appeared in a wide variety of different guises from the original tape based CPC464 to the ill-fated GX4000 games console. In this book we take you through the long life of the Amstrad CPC computer range looking at a varied cross section of the 6000+ games available with a review and screenshot of each one. This is not a list of the best games, a list of the worst games or indeed a complete guide to what's available. It's simply a meandering journey through the system's vast catalogue to give a perfect cross-section of what the Amstrad CPC has to offer. There are ten games featured for each letter of the alphabet and these range from the earliest titles released in the mid-eighties to public domain games, type-in listings and even modern homebrews. A Compendium of Amstrad CPC Games is a celebration of the ever-popular home computer packed with nostalgic memories, expert opinions, interesting stories, trivia, developer interviews and so much more besides.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Video games take players on a trip through ancient battlefields, to mythic worlds, and across galaxies. They provide players with a way to try on new identities and acquire vast superpowers. Video games also give people the chance to hit reset – to play again and again until they achieve a desired outcome. Their popularity has enabled them to grow far beyond their humble origins and to permeate other forms of popular culture, from comic books and graphic novels to films and television programs. Video games are universal. In 100 Greatest Video Game Franchises, editors Robert Mejia, Jaime Banks, and Aubrie Adams have assembled essays that identify, assess, and reveal the most important video games of all-time. Each entry makes a case for the game’s cultural significance and why it deserves to be on the list, from its influence on other games to its impact on an international scale. In addition to providing information about the game developer and when the franchise was established, these entries explore the connections between the different video games, examining them across genre, theme, and content. This accessible collection of essays gives readers an opportunity to gauge their favorite video game franchises against the best of all time and argue how they each fit among the 100 greatest ever created. Whether casually looking up information on these games or eager to learn how franchises evolved over the years, readers will enjoy this entertaining and informative volume. Comprehensive and engaging, 100 Greatest Video Game Franchises will appeal to fans and scholars alike.

Download or read book Metamorphoses of (New) Media written by Julia Genz and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current success story of new media and the ongoing digitalisation of our world provide an illuminating starting point for the discussion of the powerful revolutions in our media and media uses initiated by the introduction of a(ny) ‘new’ medium: how do new media evolve and how do they relate to established, ‘old’ media and media uses? What does the rise of new media and media uses imply for other discourses? And not least: which methodological and theoretical approaches help us to understand these developments? Metamorphoses of (New) Media offers an international and interdisciplinary range of studies on these questions. In examining the effects of new media and media uses in fields such as social discourse, transmediality, and aesthetics, the essays in this collection engage with a great variety of examples, from political debate on Twitter to digital storytelling and the game-like experience of DVDs. What these diverse perspectives share, however, is an approach to Metamorphoses of (New) Media as an ongoing, recursive process of change that initiates dialogue and casts light on existing discursive, medial, and aesthetic models.
