Cronosoft
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cronosoft (UK) is a software publishing house, which manufactures and markets games and utility software for a range of computers that are considered 'retro' or commercially obsolete.
The company was established in 2002, with its first release Egghead in Space, written by Jonathan Cauldwell, and released on cassette format for the ZX Spectrum.
Since the beginning, Cronosoft has increased its range of software to include titles, not only for the ZX Spectrum, but also for the Commodore 64, Vic 20, Amstrad CPC, and BBC Micro.
Popular titles include Platform Game Designer, Astro Nell, Reaxion, Grid Zone Remix, Rough Justice and the new title Loco Bingo.
It has been stated that Cronosoft's plan is to expand it's range to cover even more obscure home computers like the Dragon 32, TRS80/Tandy CoCo, Sinclair ZX81, Oric, Sord M5, and Texas TI99. Also, console support for systems such as the Sega Mega-CD, Amiga CD32, Nintendo GameBoy and 3DO is planned.
Cronosoft has been featured in several mainstream computer magazines, including Retro Gamer, GamesTM and Micro Mart, and regularly exhibits at computer shows across the United Kingdom, including CGE UK, ORSAM and RETRO BALL.
