Hi, I'm a 17 years kid that loves cooking and both playing and making videogames (as a hobby for now, hopefully as a job in the future), and I'm a first year student in 3d graphics. Even though I'm too young to have experienced the oldschool era of gaming, I still love retro games because of their great game design. A few years back I stumbled upon a let's play of Sundog: Frozen Legacy, and I wanted to try it out. Sadly with the emulator the game just crashed every time I played for 5 minutes and I eventually gave up. Then, at August 2013 I found about this project. I sent an email to the developers back then because the whole website seemed dead but I desided to try anyways. Much later, they answered that they had been making progress again, and since then I've been following the blog. My actual name is not Cody at all, but I like it better than my own (and I was told not to tell my name in the dangerous interwebs, although in case the developers stored my old emails they can surely figure it out..) My MBTI type is INFP. That's pretty much all there is to say for now

Hi there and welcome! It's great to have some younger fans as well as those who played Sundog on a chugging floppy drive. I think you will like this version - it's a nice balance of retro vibe and modern gameplay, and is very faithful to the spirit of the original game.

Mostly accurate. There have been some layout changes and some other modifications, but for the most part that's where we are at right now. The visual look is faithful to the style and colors of the Atari ST version of the original, even where new artwork has been created (new buildings, new user interface, new interiors, etc).
