Who needs an Amiga when you can have an Amstrad? :)

Pure Amiga... ;)

@Overflow:
Do you plan to make a full game or just leave it where it is now?
I imagine that's a lot of work to put in to, but it would be sooo awesome to have an almost 1:1 port (since all the other ports are not as close as this one is).

Good work. I sold the amiga to buy gx4000 controllers for cpc+.

25 years after my 1st trial/preview on CPC6128 :)

@sim, Devilmarkus, all
This is a demo - not a POC for a game. A game with such quality (on sound and parallax scrollings) is not possible.

Part of the demo is cheating.
Think about it: a small one-screen intro... on a 512KB cardridge!?
As the best example, all played notes from the original MOD were generated and saved to rom: 368KB!
More than 1/3 of cputime during the show is spent by copying samples from rom to ram to be played.
Others cheats are: 52KB (out of 64KB) ram dedicated to screen (incl. 16KB just for the small wall scroll at bottom),
generated code in rom for balloons and moon, generated code for delta-packing animations in sprite,...
512KB were full quickly!

Part of the demo is not cheating.
From the nfo: promote Amstrad GX4000 as one of the most powerful 8bit platforms.
That's it: GX4000 is just too powerful! ;)
There's no cheat there, I'm using standard features from the hardware:
* dma-AY on 3 channels
* 4096 colors - palette: 16 for background + 15 for sprites
* colorful sprites - which are zoom-able (watch those trees)
* 1-pixel H/V scroll
* splitscreens & programmable scanline interruptions
From the nfo again: that's an easy job to show that GX4000 is not the crap most of people were lauhging at.

@Overflow.
Thanks for answering.

Following the scene I may say that with time everything (almost) is possible.
If there wass a remake of the DW musics, and some gfx compromises...
So we perhaps would see the game in the next 25 years ;);). Joking(?) ;).

Amazing achievement. That's for sure.

Never heard of this console before (which is a shame). Can just imagine what would have been possible with it! Seems it's easy programmable and has all the needed features in hardware. :) Very nice conversion of one (of the best) Amiga classic. (Almost) Every detail fits. Great demo!

@mad: it would be easy, if the hardware was not also full of bugs which make things a little more... interesting. But, this also means more clever and creative ways to use the hardware, too :)
"Amstrad+ begins" ;) and it all started at Alchimie Party 2017:
1) Consider this one-screen as a showcase of GX4000's potential - targeting both retro-gamers and sceners
2) Kudos to CRTC³ the 1st Amstrad+ demo on cartridge - dedicated to sceners
3) Last but not least, previewed at the party: Ghost'n Goblins - for gamers

First, it was 'Shadow Of The Beast Preview' that made every CPC guy go nuts!
Now, it's time to make all CPC+ guys go crazy :)

You guys made me think that I am actually watching an Amiga intro on my CPC+. Gfx and zik are simply AWESOME!
rulez added on the 2017-11-27 16:19:44 by voxy voxy
CPC+ is the fattest Agnus! Or the phattest Angus! ^_^
Anyway, this is amazing! CPC+ needs more awesome demos like this...

Please... convert the game to CPC+ or to GX4K ... PUHLEEZE!
