The scene gives us two diskmags released on the same day:

In Scene World #17 the chapter “Game News” features some facts on Protovision’s game projects. However, due to the issue being massively delayed, the chapter’s content is around one year old. Anyway, welcome back, Scene World!

Vandalism News #57 again offers a “Mini-Market”, an actually quite big chapter about new developments on C64 games and hardware. In there, Hoild explains some reasons about the delay of Ultimate Newcomer, and reveals some details about the massive amount of work that went into it.
In the Opinion Poll chapters you can read people’s thoughts about the “Gaming Renaissance” on C64.
Last but not least, some Protovision titles are in the Game Charts.
