My pleasure. The game is superb. You are very talented to have created this on the C64.

Good news. Magic Desk 2 support has now been added to the upcoming V6.0 of the MEGA65 C64 Core so we’ll be able to enjoy your awesome game on the MEGA65 now as well.

I thought you’d like to know:

Thanks I was just curious.

Thanks for the quick reply. Looks like I’ll miss out on this great game :-(

Out of interest will it run on the new Commodore C64 Ultimate?

Hi,

I've been looking forward to this since reading the review in Zzap recently and playing the awesome original !

I can't currently play this Stronger version as the download .CRT file will not work with the Mister FPGA C64 core or the C64 Core of my MEGA65. The original edition worked perfectly.

Are you planning on releasing in a format that will work on one or both of the above? I hope so, fingers crossed because I'm sure I'll not be alone with this.

Look forward to news. Have a great weekend.

Regards

Rob

Hi Dan, 

Unsure why but my comments re 030 cards on A1200 seemed to disappear since yesterday evening. I wanted to let you know that the black screen happens on both the Tsunami 1230 and also a TF1230. Hopefully this helps.

What an amazing game this is shaping up to be. Keep up the great work.

Cheers - Rob

Dan just to let you know that the same happens with a TF1230 card as well. 

Hi Dan,

Great to hear from you. Thanks for the escape tip.

I'm using a Tsunami 1230 card at the moment and it's the one without the FPU. It's pretty bullet proof with all games both old and new to be honest. If you need anything testing let me know, happy to help out.

Have a great weekend.

Love this, great progress... A quick couple of things:

1. When I load on my A1200 with 030 accelerator I still get a black screen and music and nothing more.

2. I fired it up on my Mister which is an 020 as you'll know and it works fine.

2a. Once I lose all my lives and get the "GAME OVER" it gets stuck and I can't restart a new game without having to reboot the machine.

I can';t wait to see this progress further. Keep up the great work.

Regards - Rob

This is great to say the least! I watched on Amiga Bill yesterday night and today got the download.


I’ll be purchasing the final version once it’s completed. Good luck in the compo!!

Hi Dan,

Enjoy your holiday. It’s well deserved after the excellent progress you’ve made on this game!

There’s no rush I’m not on X these days sadly but I am on Discord. As things progress I’ll try future versions and provide feedback over in the Discord if I find anything I think you should know about.

It’s all very impressive.

Cheers

Rob

This looks first class when I saw on Amiga Bill last Saturday. I downloaded to try on my physical A1200 which has an 030 card in and sadly it crashes as soon as you go to start the game, the screen is filled with garbage artefacts although you can make out movement and the slime rising. The second time I tried to run the game I was also greeted with a black screen as opposed to the menu screen I got first time.

If you need help with further testing please let me know. More than happy to help you.

Regards

Rob

Wow this is great to see. Thanks for the great New Year’s Day treat.

Happy New Year Mike.

Enjoy some holiday time as well!

That’s a great update thanks for sharing. It really is great to see you making excellent progress with this AMOS PRO game! Truly remarkable…

Perfect thanks.

That’s great to hear and thanks for the insight. If you could recommend one AMOS Pro book what would it be? (I have the manual)

Good luck and I look forward to the next updates.

I have a question for you. How well did you know AMOS Pro before starting this project? I often wondered about taking a look at AMOS.

You really have got something special in the making here. Your pixel art I really like so give yourself some credit. It's clear you have spent much time on building a really good look for the game.

The music and sound effects are also coming along nicely. I like the chilled out tune! One little suggestion if you don't mind.... For me the sound of Kal running up/down the stairs could do with being a little deeper, more of a thud than a click. Only my personal preference!

Keep up the great work and I look forward to seeing further updates.

My Amiga 1200 awaits this awesome looking assembly game!

Many thanks for getting back to me. All copied over and working perfectly. I still can’t quite believe we have this quality of Outrun on the Amiga!

Still love this. For this latest 0.91 version there's no 'gfx' folder in the download. Is that correct or was it created via the python script from the ROMS? I can't remember and this time I just copied the ROMS that I'd already converted last time around to the new directory structure.

Help appreciated.

That’s a fabulous and very insightful video. Outrun is my all time favourite Arcade Game and the sole reason I bought a Mister FPGA!

I’ve also been following your Amiga version and even with my 030 accelerator card it’s a massive step up on the original. I still remember how devastated I was at how poor the original Amiga version was!

I look forward to future videos and Amiga version updates.

Thanks for all of your great work.

Thanks very much. That bit was always fun. 

Awesome one of my all time arcade favourites. Quick couple of things...

1. On my A1200 (64 meg with 030)  the WHD version hangs and gives garbage before the welcome screen.

2. The floppy version works :-) In the Javelin if you hold the fire button down to get near vertical angle to bring down the BIRD when the bird is hit (ie the javelin leaves the top of the screen) the game crashes.

I thought you'd like to know.

Great game. Look forward to news on potential fixes.

Can’t wait…

Look forward to the full game soon as this looks fabulous.

Great Tony. Look forward to it as I’m sure others will too. I hope the Z80 re-baptism is going well!

I’d certainly be interested in seeing how you’re getting on via a dedicated blog especially for the Next and any Amiga activity. 

Pleased to hear you still have the gift with the Z80 assembly. At least you had it in the first place ;-)

Looking forward to seeing the Next project soon!

You’ll be very pleased with it once it arrives!

Great news that the Next game looks like it has a green light! I had a fully refurbed A1200 from RP at the beginning of last year and it’s been great having an Amiga back in the house. 

Looking forward to further news as the blog grows!

It’s fully deserved! I know just how much work goes into making something as polished as this. I can’t wait for the docs! That’s going to be one of my next projects going though it to learn as much as possible. Keep me posted.

This is superb Steve and your dedication to make this the best you can on all fronts really shines through. There’s so much for people like myself to learn from this, so those docs are going to be highly valued once completed.

It’s good to check back in I always think as it gives you an air of satisfaction as to what you are able to do now. I’ve a long way to go however the excellent manual plus your games and documentation have given me a superb start :-)

No worries and thanks again. It’s unbelievable how far you’ve progressed from these to the latest games. It gives me hope! 😉

You just keep giving! Looking forward to taking a look at these too :-) 

Big thanks for these.

I noticed the link to the video tutorial for Lander is not working. Perhaps an update needed? Found the playlist 😃

It’s not a proper release unless there’s a small amount of drama ;-) 

I was just about to message you re that and see you’ve found it! I’ll download the sprite file :-)

Thanks Kev - Looking forward to taking a look in more detail at this one hopefully soon.  Thanks again for the documentation!!! Fingers crossed for that awesome platform game in future ;-)
