Trojan - Lost Spectrum game - May 24, 2008

When doing some research on Durell’s long lost game Trojan for the C64, we found out that it was infact a Capcom conversion that never came to release.  Thanks to Martyn Carroll and Clive Townsend, they have uncovered some rather startling findings as well as a recent C64 preview being found (See GTW64 update).

Check out the screens below, but the good news is that Clive Townsend (The developer of the Spectrum conversion) kept all his work, and along with Death Pit, this should be salvagable some day soon.  Here’s waiting! … Now we just need to find a fuller C64 version with Rob Hubbards long lost music…
