WIP Airwolf Reloaded by Cyril GOURET, TITAN and Alain le Guirec

-

Airwolf is well known to be an unplayable game as it is so difficult and also bugged !

Cyril GOURET, TITAN and Alain le Guirec are working on Airwolf Reloaded which is for the moment a hacked version of the original game : no more time limite, no more collision test, no more gravity. There is also a new supberb loading screeen by TITTAN et a new music..

And they are working on an upgrade of the graphics by TITAN, I saw some beautiful screens on facebook (link lost though) and to make a game being finally playable.

Carlc27843 has written for PICO-8 an Amstrad CPC AY-3-8910 sound chip emulator using undocumented 5512Hz 8-bit mono PCM channel, to compose or convert Amstrad CPC music by Dave Rogers.

And I just tumbled on his two other creations : a remake de Nebulus and a demo about the game Cauldron on Pico-8 of course. Hit the links so you will able to see a video of the game and the demo.



The Amstrad CPC web site of Barjack

-

Seen on CPCWiki, you can see Barjack's web site with the graphics he did, including work in progress games :

  • Bubble Quest for Amstrad CPC+ by Roudoudou, e-dredon, Toto and Barjack
  • Renegade Metro (without more informations)

This site is a good news, the bad one is that he should stop Amstrad CPC activities when Bubble Quest is done...






Black Sea by Mananuk for Amstrad CPC is available

-

Black Sea Treasure Hunters by Mananuk is a new Amstrad CPC game released before on ZX Spectrum.

The story of the game is the following : submarine Captain Robinson goes deep into the Black Sea to search for treasures and discover all the secrets that those waters hold. The small bathyscaphe has a very limited oxygen deposit, so you will have to go to the nearby ports to recharge the cylinders. You must be careful not to disturb the inhabitants of the sea if you do not want to end up in the depths of the Black Sea.
