eegad Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Phoenix is the game I've most been hoping for on 8bits for...decades at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Oh wow, that is awesome! The only home conversion I know for Phoenix is on the 2600. An 8-Bit version will be excellent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sramirez2008 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Wow! Those pics look amazing. I hope this leads to a 5200 conversion too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Allan Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Read Philsan's post #6. He lost it the unfinished game. Someone will have to start one from scratch. Allan 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An 8-Bit version will be excellent! The c64 had a version called Eagle Empire, although the final boss screen is crap BBC micro had a damn near perfect conversion. Both are 6502 so maybe a straight conversion would be easier than coding from scratch. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Would be nice if this came out to fill another gap in the arcade conversion list. What would also be nice, probably nicer, would be Exerion. Though the technical demands would be somewhat higher, possibly even more so than Galaga. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 That BBC version looks dead sweet..Shame the Atari one fell through...Mind you, most of us have MAME so it's out there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Philsan Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Didn't know Falcon, it reminded me Phoenix (Homesoft version doesn't need OS-B). Obviously it's not Phoenix and it's a simple game, Phoenix 2021 is better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris+++ Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) Eagle Empire on the C64 is an extremely well done conversion of Phoenix. The title was changed because the programmer was unable to obtain the license. I wonder if there's an equivalent for the Atari eight-bits -- i.e. definitely Phoenix, but with a different name. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqcpq-CFepI Edited March 14, 2022 by Chris+++ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
