Original Artwork for the Apogee Logo (drawn in 1991)

Scott Miller hired an artist in 1991 to make the logo for Apogee. He told him that he wanted a comet tail in the logo.

These were the first drawings. They went on to become the digitized logo for Apogee.

I mushed the images together for easy viewing, but you can see the originals in Scott's tweet.

Remaster of Raptor Call of the Shadows by Original Developer

I just found out from u/sctran that Raptor Call of the Shadows Remixed was a thing.
The original developer (Scott Host) did a successful Kickstarter that is listed as launching soon.

Check out the developer's site for more info: https://www.mking.com/RaptorRemixed.html

EDIT: Developer said the project is on hold as he is taking care of his mother full time at the moment.

Anyone Remember Super Boppin'

I included 9 images in the gallery, so be sure to click through them if you are interested.

Super Boppin isn't one of the first games I think of when I think of Apogee, but I do remember playing it once at my cousins' house. I didn't have a copy myself.

Might be one I should revisit as an adult.
