Capcoms Wildwest-Shooter Gun.Smoke aus dem Jahr 1985 hat ein neues Zuhause gefunden. Modern Vintage Gamer hat eine Umsetzung des Spielhallenklassikers für den Commodore Amiga AGA veröffentlicht, also für den erweiterten Chipsatz, der in Rechnern wie dem A1200 und dem CD32 steckt. Wenn du ein Faible für staubige Grenzstädte und Banditen hattest, die aus Saloonfenstern auftauchen, ist das genau das Richtige für dich.
Es ist nicht der erste Ausflug des Entwicklers aus der Spielhalle auf den Amiga. Modern Vintage Gamer steckte auch hinter der jüngsten Amiga-Version von Zippy Race. Diese Umsetzung eroberte schnell die Herzen der Leser von IndieRetroNews, wo zuerst über diese Veröffentlichung berichtet wurde.
Capcom's 1985 Wild West shooter Gun.Smoke has a new home. Modern Vintage Gamer has released a port of the arcade classic for the Commodore Amiga AGA, the enhanced chipset used by machines like the A1200 and the CD32. If you had a soft spot for dusty frontier towns and outlaws popping out of saloon windows, this one is for you.
This is not the developer's first arcade trip to the Amiga. Modern Vintage Gamer was also behind the recent Amiga version of Zippy Race. That port quickly won over readers at IndieRetroNews, which first reported on this release.
Mini-golf has always been a fairly polite pastime. You line up a putt, nudge the ball past a windmill and hope it drops. Binary Golf, a sci-fi take on the format, has very little interest in polite. Beta sign-ups are now open, and the pitch involves helicopter hats, tornadoes, UFOs and bosses that shoot fireballs at your golf ball.
It sounds chaotic. It also sounds like a lot of fun.
The Hole Moves Where You Want It
The core twist is easy to explain and a little harder to wrap your head around. Each course starts without a fixed hole. Instead, it is dotted with targets that you need to hit and clear away. Once you reach the final target, it turns into the hole itself.
Some games pitch themselves with a big hook. Cinderline goes for a strange one, and it works. You are a bird, you drive a train, and the fate of a dying world rests on one final S'MORE.
A beta demo for this surreal adventure game is now on Steam, and it was recently highlighted by Alpha Beta Gamer, a site that tracks early builds, alphas and betas of indie projects. Here's what's waiting at the platform.
All Aboard the Ash Express
The star of Cinderline is an anthropomorphic bird. You aren't a tourist. You're the one at the controls of a train, rolling through an underground system that has clearly seen better days.
The Commodore 64 still gets new racing games, and this one is easy to like. ZeroG Labs has released version 1.3c of Lemans 2, a top-down arcade racer built for the old 8-bit machine. It takes clear cues from the classic racer Lemans. The goal is to keep that familiar feel, not to reinvent it.
The headline change in this update is cosmetic but welcome. There is a brand-new full-screen title cover to greet you when the game loads. The racing behind it has been left alone, and that seems to be the point. Fans of the original formula get what they came for.
