Another Day, Another Book...

While trawling the interwebs the other week I stumbled across this:


It's a lovely wee book written by co-founder of Nufekop Scott Elder that tells the story of the company from it's inception in the brothers' bedroom until their unfortunate demise in '84.

In case you don't know Nufekop were there at the very beginning of the VIC's life and produced some great games for it.  These include Anti-Matter Splatter, The Catch, Dodgecars, Alien Panic and loads of other titles.  Most of these were released here in the UK and mainland Europe under the Bubble Bus or Rabbit label.

The book is quite short at 90 pages but it's full of anecdotes and heretofore (love that word!) unseen photos and pictures.  It's a great read and really shows just how innocent the beginning of the home computer gaming industry was.

Here's the link to Scott's site:  Nufekop
