Thank you, that's great news! At the risk of being boring - because I'm getting like a stuck record here - this project just gets better and better! I love your design and colour choices for the forest level. Most people feel it looks better than the arcade version, and that is absolutely how I feel too. Bravo!
I have a slight concern over how smooth the scrolling will be on the OCS Amiga. Some Youtube videos look perfectly smooth; other look slightly juddery.
This could all be entirely to do with Youtube, though - and I'm only nit-picking. Overall, this is the best work I've seen on the Amiga in a very long time. I assure you that if I had had this version of Rastan for my Amiga back in the late 1980s I would have been absolutely thrilled. It's exactly what I wanted back then! Better 40+ years late than never!

Thank you! I really appreciate that, and your earlier comment too : D
There *are* areas on OCS/ECS/68000 that have slowdowns yeah. The judders are probably down to YT compression and emulator settings though. Real HW has slowdowns but no jerky screen updates.
I'm taking some inspiration from the SMS version, especially for the 3rd level which will have a slight ancient Greece theme for the field section to go with the harpies and medusas and all that.
You're very welcome - I wish you all the best with this, and with all your other projects. It's a privilege to see such craftsmanship in action, and I thank you again for sharing your work. Just to be clear, I in no way intend to put any pressure on you either. It's all good! I look forward to seeing what else you come up with!
