Another good example of Roger Dean’s leftfield take on Sci-fi demonstrated here with some slightly Alien-esque artwork for the Computer Game “Obliterator”, Another classic Psygnosis title which played as a 2d Platform Puzzle / Shoot-Em-Up.

Hi,
The Obliterator became quite famous on the Amiga.
In those days it was the computer that I dreamt about having, but couldn’t afford.
Kind regards,
José
yeah they were pretty expensive – so much better than the Atari ST though
The tragedy of the Amiga was the general perseption was the Atari was cooler because it was, well, Atari. i remember forever justifying the Amiga’s abilities in school playgrounds.
Love this one. I have been a fan of Roger Dean since the early 90s when I started to see his artwork appear on the box covers of Amiga games.
Yeah it’s defiantely one of my favs – though pretty much any Roger Dean & Sci-Fi is!
