Where Time Stood Still - Release Date Any Time Now!

It's been a while since I updated the blog, and for that I must apologise. A house move, combined with being heavily involved in the organisation of a local beer festival has meant that my time at the computer has been limited.

Well, the move is complete and the beer festival has been and gone for another year, so this should mean I'll be able to devote more time to the blog once more.

Now, on with the Amiga news...

The ST to Amiga conversion of Ocean's isometric arcade adventure "Where Time Stood Still", has been under development for many months, but it seems that at long last the wait could be over.

Posting to the English Amiga Board on the 9th of July, WTSS coder Galahad, commented;
"So, this one is getting final BETA assembly, and will be sent for final BETA testing tomorrow. Once thats passed, game will be written to sector loading disk, and if it passes BETA testing, we 'should' be on for a weekend release of the game........ Patience rewarded chaps"
Unfortunately, things didn't quite go to plan, as in the early hours of this morning Galahad posted a quick update;
"Final BETA sent to the tester as he wasn't around......! Anytime soon folks"
All being well, this final round of testing should be short-lived, and following that us mortals will finally be able to get our hands on this much anticipated title.

In the meantime, check out this work in progress footage of the conversion, which was uploaded to YouTube towards the end of last month.
