It's been quite a while since I put out an update with Invasion of the Emerald Saucers, and this might not be what y'all would have expected, but I think of it as a nice bonus all the same!
My mate Matt has been tinkering with some side projects on the Atari ST for a while now, and after some discussions suggested doing a conversion of Emerald Saucers as a side thing.
After a chunk of time later - we now have Invasion of the Emerald Saucers for the Atari STE (yes, it's STE specific as the underlying framework takes advantage of the extra hardware in the STE). Thanks to being compiled C (rather than interpreted BASIC), this version of the game can be considered the TURBO edition as it runs much faster, and gives you a bit more of a challenge compared to my original Spectrum Next version of the game.
