Following a successful Kickstarter project last year, new book publisher Read Only Memory has released its first title, Sensible Software: 1986 – 1999.
This biography chronicles the history of one of the UK's most iconic development studios, as well as the origins of smash hits such as Sensible Soccer and Cannon Fodder – and we've got a free taster for you right here.
In the extract below, the book's author and former games journalist Gary Penn speaks to Sensible Software co-founder Jon Hare about some of the crucial decisions behind creating Cannon Fodder.
Sensible Software: 1986 – 1999 is available now from Read Only Memory's official website (http://readonlymemory.vg/). It costs £25, plus postage and packaging for non-UK customers.
