 Keeping
it retro
SOS Software has been producing games since the days of the
humble BBC Micro and Acorn Electron, through the days of the
Atari ST, and into the era of the PC and Mac.
You will find every game through each and every one of those
platforms right here. So if you have the means to play
BBC/Electron and Atari ST games you will be able to experience
that true retro feeling. If not, then there's plenty here
to entertain on the PC and Mac.

Having recently upgraded to Windows 11, a quick
test has revealed that there are issues with our
games. For most, it's the same caveats as
Windows 10 in that installers and the main
application need to be run in compatibility mode
(either Windows 7 or Windows XP). Please visit
the
Support
page for more info.
However, for Rockfall DX there is a large issue
in that I currently cannot get the game to run
at all. On start-up it locks to a blank
screen and the only way out is to sign out. This
will be investigated in due course, but the tools
and the source code will need to be dug out of
an old drive, as they are not present on my
current laptop. Please bear with me while I see
if I can solve the issue. |

Wow, six years since the last update!
You're probably thinking we're no longer here.
We are, but sadly, due to circumstances I won't
go into right now, are no longer developing any
new games ... at least for the foreseeable
future. We are still here for support
purposes, which brings me to the following.
It has come to my attention that our games have
problems installing under Windows 10. The
latest version the games were tested in was
Windows 7, as this was the version of Windows that
was out and until recently did not have a
Windows 10 system to test. The good news
is that they will run, but may need some coaxing
to do so. Please visit the
Support section
of the PC/Mac games section for details (at the
bottom of the page). |

 As
you're no doubt aware, it's been a little quiet
on the SOS Software front as of late. In
fact, it's been over two years since our last
release,
Rockfall DX. We would like to announce
that we are putting a framework together that
will form the basis of all our future titles,
and with that, are proud to announce that we not
only have one game in development, but a second
well into it's planning phase as well. For
further details and more regular updates, don't
forget to visit our
Facebook page. |

It's been
a long time since we gave the site a bit of
a spruce up, but we have finally given the site
a long overdue face-lift and come up with
something that's a bit more grown up and modern
looking. To celebrate the new look, we have
also had a bit of a price drop on our flag-ship
title for PC and Mac, see below. |
|
|
|
 As
mentioned in the above story, in order to
celebrate the introduction of our brand spanking
new site, we have decided to drop the price of
Rockfall DX to the new great price of just
US$3.95, which represents a reduction of 50%.
Rockfall DX is the latest and greatest of our
Rockfall series available now for PC and Apple
Mac. Follow
this link for more information
about the game. |
