Ocean Software Gold Edition - Kickstarter campaign
3 months ago – Fri, Feb 27, 2026 at 04:19:06 AM

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
