Pete Cooke’s marvellous space epic was graphically influenced by Firebird’s Gyron, and Pete was keen to expand on the shadow techniques in his own planet-bound shoot-’em-up. The result is an in-depth but action-packed shooter with some lovely graphical effects.

I interviewed Pete Cooke on the Making of Tau Ceti for issue 131 of Retro Gamer magazine.
