Hi there,
Each backer of the printed Ocean book on the campaign will now get a 64-page magazine on the games of Ocean.
We have also added an Ocean enamel badge and mug as an add-on, that compliments the Gold Edition colouring of the book - see images below.
Pledge now for your book and free magazine - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/zzap642021annual/the-story-of-ocean-software-gold-edition

Hi there,
We have just launched a new Kickstarter campaign to re-print our Ocean book - the link is:https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/zzap642021annual/the-story-of-ocean-software-gold-edition
The new edition of the book will have an additional 35-40 pages of memoirs - we have caught up with over 10 of those who worked at Ocean (that we missed the first time around) and now have their story in the book.
The book will be hardback and over 300 pages in length. We have also taken this opportunity to tidy up a few other areas of the publication.
Those extra peeps we are talking to and hope to include in the book are:
- Martin Galway
- Chris Urquhart
- Lorraine Star
- Mike Webb
- Barry Leitch
- John Brandwood
- Lee Cowley
- Johnathan Dunn
- Matthew Cannon
- Zach Townsend
- Andrew Sleigh
- Steve Blower
- David Collier
Cheers, Chris
