CEZ Games Studio

A modern museum for a closed chapter of the Spanish retro scene. The label has not reopened: this site preserves what happened, what was published and what came afterwards.

The end of CEZ Games Studio

PRESERVED\nWITHOUT REWRITING

This is the closing message published on the CEZ GS website in 2009, before Capitán Sevilla - El Remake was released. It is reproduced below without changing its content.

An interesting title, right?

Don't be scared, you won't run out of games, because whoever writes this knows for a fact that the retro activity of our colleagues is to follow and that you will be able to enjoy a lot of new games for your obsolete computers. Variety and quantity, even more than now, you'll see.

But there are stages and stages, and today begins the end of one of them. Computer Emuzone Games Studio (CEZ GS) will cease to exist, as such, after the publication of our next (and perhaps last) big bomb: Capitán Sevilla - El Remake (stay tuned! :)).
After its appearance, CEZ GS will formally close its doors , unless some other current member of the group wants their game -which is currently under development- to appear under this label.

The CEZ GS page stops working from today. In it you will find this same message and a link to the store, so you can get the latest stock of games. Its future - that of the store - is yet to be elucidated, but the current managers of CEZ GS, Utopian and Benway will update you soon, although the games already published that have not had a physical version are likely to have it and be purchasable, either in the store or at the various user meetings.

Cards and games will continue to be available at Computer Emuzone (CEZ), so that nothing is lost. From Captain Sevilla (or someone else, as I have already said), it will be the creators of the games who decide whether to create their own pages or forums, or announce their projects in the CEZ forums, or even consider as a page of reference of the same the cards that we make in CEZ. But it will be the same for everyone, whether they have belonged to CEZ GS or not.
Of course, whoever wants to remove the games from the page will be able to do so without any problem.
All of them, unless their authors say Otherwise, they become 100% free distribution. It was already allowed to do so some time after its publication, but perhaps not all page administrators had found out.

The CEZ GS subforums will remain in the CEZ forums for as long as their current managers determine. Afterwards, messages from public forums will be moved to "current games for retro systems" or "remakes", depending on their category, while messages from private forums will be changed to what was said at the beginning of this paragraph.
The In short, the CEZ forums, with the aforementioned caveats, will continue to be there to serve people, but they will no longer be the support of any specific group.

Another thing, addressed to the current members of CEZ GS, is that you will be able to keep your spaces in the ftp for as long as you consider necessary... It will not be deleted unless you ask for it. And if you need anything, don't hesitate to ask.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm left with a lot of friends, some disappointment and the pride of having made it possible for true retro artists to get together. It was a childhood dream come true many years later.
The story did not end exactly there. Capitán Sevilla closed the announced 2009 stage, but one long-running project was eventually completed in 2011.

VISUAL IDENTITY

The logos also tell the story

CEZ GS and its divisions did not use a single immutable mark. This museum preserves the ecosystem of logos and makes two milestones explicit: the first CEZ Games Studio logo and the first Remakes Division logo.

Puzzle

MSX

Wyz, member of Computer Emuzone, created this game for the MSX Dev'03, the first of this well known contest. Although it was cancelled, it left us two complete games and this 'Teki Paki', a beta version. Conversion for MSX 1 of a Toaplan arcade coin-op, it's a kind of Tetris+Columns, where you have to eliminate squares in groups of four or more. Graphics are simple but you don't need more in a game like this, and it hasn't sound (it's supossed to be added in a non released final version), but it's completely playable. So, enjoy it.

Beyker conversion wass performed on occasion of Arcade Coin-op 2005 Competition, organized by Bytemaniacos. The original was created by Cardinal Amusement Products, a division of EPOS Corporation. In turn, it was a clone of 'The Glob', created by EPOS a year earlier. A few months later, EPOS launched an extension of the game called 'Super Glob', which was basically the same game but with different screens. The hardware used is the same that was used to create 'Pac-Man'. Oriignal 'Beastie Feastie' consists of 24 stages that are repeated two times.

This Phantomasa adventure was created by Na_th_an in 2006. Although CEZ GS appears in the credits and in the loading screen, we didn't released it officially, but it took part of the "Concurso Libre de Videojuegos 2006" (Free videogames contest 2006), being the winner. Made in compiled Basic, it's the thypical adventure of our heroine, so if you are a fand of this kind of games, you'll have lots of fun. Later, the game was reprogrammed, giving rise to what would be Phantomasa 2, or Phantomasa: In the Land of the Grunge Wizards v2.0, which was released by CEZ GS within its Silver seal.

As some of you could remember, CEZ Games Studio began to close in early 2009. At that time, they were some games in the pipeline, and some of those were almost completed, so they still were released under one of our seals; this was the case of I Need Speed, Escape from Minos and Capitán Sevilla - The Remake, which became the last game of the group ... In a bit less than three years. Why I say this? Some time ago, Chema decided to conclude the project of CEZ GS which has taken longer to develop, since Anjuel submitted it in the forum in 2004, while it still was going to be made by Defun Projects.
