dhor Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 Congrats on this release. I love BW graphic, especialy so well pixelated Finally hero jumps with proper gravity included. Ingame music fits it very nicely. BTW, judging this engine the obvious question comes to mind - How far is from here to Rick? I wonder if anyone consider to create atr (full version), just for oldboys gamers? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwiliteZoner Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 I was thinking this game would look great in ST high-res mode. Just a thought.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beeblebrox Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 (edited) Just had time to play 10mins on real hardware (64k 600xl) using my old zip stick joystick. The control of your character Tony is bang on with this game. So quick and fluid. Some platformers can be very frustrating in the control and collision detection aspects, whereas this has the right level of control, speed, and accuracy. It really feels like it's been fine tuned. Plays so much better with a joystick on real hardware than on the keyboard in an emulator. It also plays like a 16bit platformer. The attention to detail and animation is so impressive. Honestly it's such a great platformer. Will hopefully have some more time this weekend to give it a good session between hardware projects. Kudos to all involved. I hear sequels are planned which is great news. Who knows, perhaps we'll get a monochrome sonic or rayman sometime?!

Thank you for playing it I did aim to make it as good as I can... 9 months of testing almost each day made it better for sure. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows... amazing effort and result. I look forward to more games with such high production values.

patjomki Posted Thursday at 04:37 AM Share Posted Thursday at 04:37 AM Full colour version of Tony for the ATARI Jaguar? So perhaps there will be an update for the Amiga, too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steril707 Posted Friday at 07:39 AM Share Posted Friday at 07:39 AM The last two posts show why it's a mistake to create a color version of this game.. It lessens the monochrome one in general perception. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
