Blitz Newsletters

Intro

Hello and welcome to my Blitzbasic tribute site! On these pages you will find copies of the original Blitznews newsletters which are no longer available on the official site. They have also been updated, so plenty of broken links were fixed and quite a few game and app reviews were added. I hope you enjoy the revived Blitznews! - markcw Issue 17, Issue 16, Issue 15, Issue 14, Issue 13, Issue 12, Issue 11, Issue 10, Issue 9, Issue 8, Issue 7, Issue 6, Issue 5, Issue 4, Issue 3, Issue 2, Issue 1 Also, check out the extensive community news archives. 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003
