A group of indie developers, responsible for smash hits such as Downwell and Spelunky, have joined forces to release UFO 50, a collection of 50 8-bit video games.
Set for a 2018 release on PC, the collection spans numerous genres, from platformers and RPGs to puzzlers and shooters.

In an FAQ on the collection’s website, the developers reassure consumers that the games, while somewhat shorter than many proper 8-bit titles, are full titles rather than minigames.
“Completing the entire collection could easily take over a hundred hours,” they add.
UFO 50 will see 50 original 8-bit games being made by indie devs
“The story of UFO 50 is that the games were all created in the 80s by a fictional company that was obscure but ahead of its time,” reads the FAQ. “They’re all connected by a unique 32-color palette and other restrictions we decided on to make them feel more authentic.”
The collection, which doesn’t have a price yet, will see a third of the games having multiplayer modes of some kind.
