Chaos Engine remake?! Yay!
I asked after this several years ago but they said they weren’t considering it at the time. Nice to see them in action again after so long.

I think these are THE two best games ever made. Hours of my childhood spent playing them both. Chaos Engine was amazing and really hard. Damn those electricty balls on the last level. Speedball 2 was amazing too, my fav player was Montez or something, he was kinda grey.. awesome stuff. Hope they dont ruin it with the remake, just keep it the same i say.
