Also, an evening playing Cannon Fodder. I was a huge Cannon Fodder geek when I got my Amiga, but I actually owned it first on the SNES. Being nostalgic, I'm playing the SNES version with a controller. Still so much fun. #snes #supernintendo #nintendo #sensiblesoftware #cannonfodder #retrogaming #retrogamer

An early version of the Cannon Fodder GUI panel before we settled on the final design.

We once considered having a picture for each squaddie. Don't think there was enough memory on an unexpanded Amiga, so we canned that idea. Nice thought though.

While on my Cannon Fodder kick the other day I have discovered, to my surprise, that a work-in-progress version of the PC port of Cannon Fodder was somehow pirated & preserved.

You can tell it's a beta right away because...
- 450 resource files are just dumped into a directory. They are in one neat file in the final
- 610kb conventional ram required vs 580 in the final
