Mastertonic and Abstraction Games are releasing a restored version of The Chaos Engine, the ’90s top-down-shooter.
Abstraction Games are working closely with Mike Montgomery, one of the founding members of The Bitmap Brothers, which was the original developer of The Chaos Engine.
“This really feels like the right time to bring back The Chaos Engine” says Montgomery. “There are many fond memories of The Chaos Engine and I wanted to make sure that the game was true to the original without losing its charm during the restoration process. The option to play in the original ‘Classic’ mode with the added option to play in ‘Enhanced mode’ with its refined pixel-perfect finish is a clever way to satisfy all enthusiasts! It feels a completely natural transition to the PC.”
The Chaos Engine is set to release on August 29 for PC, Mac, and Linux. It will be released on Steam, Get Games, and GOG.com. Below you can see a hands-on video with the restored version of the game.
