REALLY Old News!
GameSuite 2

Grasshopper Software recently announced a brand new version of their games creation utility, Games Suite. Here's a copy of their press release:

New Product Announcement : The Games Suite v2.00 - Write your own games!

Firstly I would like to appologise to those who ordered it early - but due to unexpected developmental problems the release date had to be constantly moved forwards. However we felt the benefit to users - through the extra functions added were worth the extra wait. All existing customers will have their upgrades dispatched (assuming there are no further delays) by next Friday.

The system assumes no prior knowledge and all can be used on two levels - either by those who are competent coders, and just require the use of our specialist games library routines, which are all produced in 100% arm code - and will handle everything from collision detection to sprite plotting to animating and moving objects - to handling their interactions with other objects etc.

Or the suite can be used (as is the more common case, and hence most of our recent development has been pushed in this direction) by those with little or no programming experience. Our multitasking environment editor and macro language will let you in gently to the world of games programming, with an easy to use program and step by step manual.

Free upgrades will be dispatched to all users of v1.00 upgrading them to v2.00

The Games Suite is availiable for £25 all inclusive from Grasshopper software.
