​April 2023 Website Updates

6/5/2023

 
​April was a quieter month on the website but there were still plenty of pages and updates. Let's get right into them.

New Pages:
  • We created new pages for several games, called 'Fan Corner', where we featured recreated box art covers by Stjb17, and also classic fonts created by Arsunt. The box art recreations were for the GameBoy games Tomb Raider (GBC) and Tomb Raider: Curse of the Sword, Tomb Raider: The Prophecy, and Tomb Raider: Legend, and the fonts are in Tomb Raider 1 and Tomb Raider 2.
  • A 'Misc Videos' page was created to point to videos that couldn't be categorised under a specific game/movie.
  • We also continued work on the comics section of the website, tackling the Dark Horse comics. We have almost completed it; there is text there but we are yet to add pictures. You can still view it though as it will probably take us a little while to take pictures and edit them for use.

Updates:
  • The wallpaper pages for the games The Angel of Darkness, Legend, Anniversary, TR2013 and Rise of the Tomb Raider were updated so that the imagery now open in their full sizes.
  • Rediscovered eCards for the movie Lara Croft Tomb Raider were added to the downloads page, and we also added the source to the original page at the bottom.
  • A couple of trailers and promo videos were added to the Tomb Raider 3 Videos page.
  • With the 1999 Times Exclusive newspapers coming to light, the 'Down Among the Dead' story page was finally completed, and we added the additional newspaper pages to the, well, Newspapers page on our website.
  • We added a Japanese screensaver to the Tomb Raider Chronicles Downloads page.
  • As we progressed in the Tomb Raider Reloaded mobile game, we have been able to keep you updated on events, abilities, gear, etc. We even added a 'Tips and Tricks' section to the 'How to Play' page with advice and help for new players or those who are new to mobile games.
  • We put out a blog post that linked 8 renders to the Times Exclusive story 'Down Among the Dead'.

One last thing to mention, we have been trying to figure out how to make our website look good on mobile devices. We still haven't been able to fix the home page sidebar (which looks squashed) but we have managed to move the content section back up to the top of the page so that it sits underneath the navigation bar and beside the sidebar. We've tested this with a mobile device held landscape. Hope this helps a little to make the site better to view and use, and we will continue to look into it again.

Thank you for visiting our website and take care all!
