I can nonetheless keep in mind within the late 80’s on my Amstrad CPC 464 taking part in the good Arcade port ‘ Bomb Jack ‘. It’s a sport that required you the participant to excessive leap and float about eliminating all of the bombs on the display earlier than they’re used to explode historic locations of curiosity, which is made harder by the enemies on display. So why is that this sport getting one other point out? Properly we have simply been contacted by Xyphoe by way of Twitter, that this nice sport from again within the day, is now out there as a completely fledged Arcade to Amstrad CPC remake by Anthony Flack.
Though I really feel there’s nothing incorrect with the Amstrad CPC model, from what we are able to inform concerning the remake nevertheless is. Not solely does it have an unique Arcade title display, however improved animations, Arcade like enemy sprites together with the primary character, degree graphics extra consistent with the Arcade model, and so a lot extra to make this a reasonably cool remake that is properly value loading up proper now in your Amstrad!
That includes:
- Trustworthy recreation of the arcade sport (roughly)
- 50hz gameplay (largely)
- A lot abuse of the CPC’s 4 color display mode
- 4 issue settings
- Excessive rating saving
- New sport modes
- New backgrounds
