Glorious news Amiga owners, as we’ve just found out through Twitter, that Jonathan Thomas will be bringing the super fast and silky smooth facing game of ‘FASTER’ from the Atari STE over to the Commodore Amiga at some point in the near future. As in the words of the creator about the STE version “Don’t expect endless game modes, achievements, tutorials or cutscenes – this is pure, unfettered and uncomplicated 1980’s-style arcade action”. To coincide with this news, we’ve got some footage from the very first announcement direct from the twitter post.
