I got an Amiga 1200 from a friend, and it came with a Phazer Light Gun. I've been reading the Amiga hardware reference, and it seems it is very simple to read light pens and light guns as the Amiga chipset has direct support for them, so I was thinking of writing a freeware Point Blank style game.
It would only work on real Amigas attached to either a TV or real 15KHz monitor (no TV cards or scandoubler support), but I'm thinking that that seriously limits my audience somewhat
So I'm really just trying to see if anyone out there is interested?
I have found a company in germany still selling this gun (
www.sintech-shop.de), although it seems quite expensive (EUR 41.00).
I don't suppose anyone knows if these guns are compatible to any others (like the C64 Phazer gun, the Atari 8-bit gun or that gun that shipped with the Spectrum 128 James Bond pack?) as i'm sure there are Amiga owners with old 8bit machines that have lightguns...
So, anyway, if you have a gun and would be interested in a free Point Blank style game that would require a real amiga (not sure whether i'll target OCS or AGA yet), and a real 15KHz display, please let me know
