Default no screen shot...

no sale. I love Archon. I won't buy without a screen shot though. I wonder at the sudden appearance of several new titles from the same publisher on the same day, without screen shots.

I agree with above. This standalone version of Archon HD is the same as the one in the Retro Games HD pack. May as well get the pack which includes Archon and several other games for the same price (99c).

Both standalone Archon HD and the Retro Games HD pack allegedly have iCade support.

judging by some of their other titles
the presentation should look something like the shot below from Elite Collection HD...

seem to be pretty much near straight ports with the keyboard or joystick controls added into the interface.

note, this screen is not Archon...
but their format appears to be similar across their "8-bit" titles.

not for me, but someone might enjoy.
their website is here :
