A home for new games on retro hardware
Atomic Windmill is an independent games publisher creating new releases for retro computers and consoles. I am involved in the games as well as the website, so this project connects my web development work with an interest in programming that began with the ZX Spectrum.
Games, people and release updates
The website introduces the publisher, the people behind it and games such as Space Pizza for the ZX Spectrum Next. Screenshots give visitors a feel for the game, while a newsletter signup offers a way to hear about future news. There is room for the personality of the publisher alongside the practical information players need.
How it was built
This site is built with plain PHP, HTML, custom CSS and vanilla JavaScript. The PHP handles server-side work, including the newsletter signup, while the stylesheet and JavaScript provide the presentation and interaction. It is a compact example of bespoke PHP website development.
