Pixel Fix Level 2 Episode 8 07/08/2024

Pixel Fix Level 2 Episode 8 In this episode, Dean and Andy are joined by a games programmer who contributed (code, music and/or sound ) to over 30 games for various retro platforms, including the ZX Spectrum, Amiga, Atari ST and PC. Many of the games he has worked on will be familiar to you! We asked Chris Denman how he got involved in the industry and were fascinated by his story and his experiences working with and for some of the most well known software houses (e.g. Silverbird Software / Impressions / Sensible Software, etc) from the late 1980's to the late 1990's.
