With Barcadia going downhill faster than Top Hat Gaming Man’s Patreon subscribers, some new staff join to fill in the gaps left by those who moved to Slice and Dice! #retrogaming #norwich

Internationally famous! Loosely translated. “The compendium of Atari 8-bit games is crap. Written by Kieren Hawken; it is so bad it almost makes you wish for the return of communism to the Czech Republic so books like this could be banned again” #retrogaming #author #atari

Hmmm 🤔 Judge for yourself forums.atariage.com/topic/300891-t… #retrogaming #retro #YouTube

Confirming that I proposed an 8-bit Atari mini years ago, the business genius that I am. Unfortunately my proposal contains some of my trademark grammar errors. #atari #retrogaming #console

Not an IP expert, but it’s not called ‘The Atari 8-bit Mini’ for the same reason RGL called it the ‘A500 Mini’ rather than the ‘Commodore A500 Mini’. Would have thought Mr Atari would have known that… #retrogaming #atari #commodore

Inspired by a sell out gig at Bacadia, and my recently recorded flatulence, I’ve decided to show every one that I’m not just a coder and writer. Edinburgh here I come! #gamedev #musician #retrogaming

An Atari STe version of Moonstone, written entirely in BASIC and with a cheat mode to turn the knight into a bumper car! #gamedev #retrogaming

I was big fan of a potential 8bit Atari Mini, so much that I created a proposal for my publishers! Now it appears I’ve changed my mind. A lot of people are saying this change in heart is because I no longer work for said publishers. #retrogaming #atari

Another testimonial to pop in the scrapbook! #retrogaming #YouTube

I used to love attending retrogaming conventions. Unfortunately these days I have to organise my own due to being persona non grata at other events! #RETROGAMING

Rather than spend say £100 on an Elgato capture device; I continue with my tried and tested method of ‘pointing a camera at the screen’, giving viewers a glimpse of my sordid grief hole! #retrogaming #YouTube

I decided to lord my knowledge over all concerned by providing a list. If you’re going to do that, you might want to check the games you list. Gunstar Heroes was not a Megadrive exclusive and neither was GTA London a PS exclusive. #retrogaming

Exclusive contract = Amazon KDP (can set an account up in five minutes) I wonder if there will be any elaboration on why there will be no work for Fusion in the future…. #kierenhawken #retrogaming #youtuve

God bless all my fans for still keeping my name out there. #retrogaming #gamedev #retro

Ah..the Atari Rule era. A lot of people don’t remember that this account was deleted once I joined Luton Comic-Con. One of my best moments as ‘Not Kieren’ was posting a link to a Laird video which had not been uploaded on YouTube. Wonder how I did that? #Retro #RETROGAMING

#Throwback to when my Uncle (who worked at Firebird) and I finished 2nd in ‘Programmer of the year’. The winner that year was Jane Whittaker with the six figure selling, yet incredibly hard to find any information on, Stellar Trader. #gamedev #RETROGAMING

Talks about freedom of speech, yet deletes comments…. #RETROGAMING #youtube

19 years ago I proudly announced to the world my work on Steve Davis Snooker 128k when I was 7 years old. Good to see even now people remember ‘better sound’, ‘name entries’ and a ‘cheat mode to turn balls into bumper cars’. #RETROGAMING #gamedev
