For those un-familiar with Bitmap Books range, Commodore Amiga: a Visual Commpendium is a book that celebrates the beauty of the Commodore Amiga. Full of pixel art, iconic box art and contributions from industry legends.

The contributors list is extensive and features leading Amiga figures including: Brian Moriarty (Loom designer), Charles Cecil (Revolution founder), Jason Kingsley OBE (Blade Warrior), Julian Eggebrecht (President of Factor 5), Chris Huelsbeck (Musician), Jon Hare (Sensible Software), Martin Edmondson (Reflections), Michael Dailly (Lemmings), Paul Cuisset (Flashback/Cruise for a Corpse) and Ron Gilbert (LucasArts).

The success of the Kickstarter has enabled several key additions over the original 'Commodore 64: a Visual Commpendium', including cardboard slipcase, spot UV varnish front cover, interviews with five leading Amiga artists and an additional 64 pages of content! Scheduled for release in March 2015 the book is available for pre-order now exclusively at Funstock.co.uk.
