Visions of the Impossible were a group of programmers that produced various games, demos and utilities for RISC OS in the 90s, with their most well known releases being Sunburst and Super Foul Egg

VotI team leader Nathan Atkinson is joining us to talk about their history and tell us some behind the scenes stories. This will include details of how they came to port The Bitmap Brothers classic Chaos Engine to RISC OS, and also ported back the 3DO console version of Starfighter 3000.

There will also be a look at some of the products that didn't quite make it, such as Simisu San and racer Eat my Dust, the final unfinished game before VotI closed down in 2002. Plus there will be info about the project they were working on with Acorn, provisionally titled DeathRacer 4000, before it all fell apart :-(

There is a write up on The Icon Bar. Nathan's presentation is available as a small PDF file, or the full 1GB Powerpoint version including embedded videos of the games is on Dropbox.
