  • The Story Of The Oliver Twins

    From p-0''0-h the cat (coder)@21:1/5 to All on Sat Jan 28 08:55:02 2023
    "This is the inside story of two brothers who
    turned a love of games into a business that
    inspired millions. It follows the birth of
    home computers, classic British 8-bit games
    and the creation of Dizzy, one of the most
    famous video game characters of the 1980s.
    Juggling school work and pioneering game
    development from their bedrooms, the most
    prolific authors of Amstrad and Spectrum
    games number an amazing 26 #1 bestsellers,
    34 original games and around five million
    sales, and at one point representing over
    15% of all UK games sales. This is the saga
    of the Oliver Twins – ‘probably the most
    prolific 8-bit game developers in the world!’"
