New AGA game: Strife!
« on: March 12, 2013, 08:37:32 AM »
Strife is a first person shooter/adventure/RPG game which was released on the PC in 1996, and has finally been ported to classic Amigas by lantus360 in 2013!

You can read more about the PC version here: http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/418/Strife.html
And you can download the Amiga port here: http://aminet.net/package/game/misc/StrifeAGA-1.0

It requires an accelerated AGA Amiga and 16MB RAM.

Here it is running on a 060:

Methinks it is indeed Doom engine.
Cammy, please confirm :)

Yep, the original Strife game was based on a modified version of the Doom engine, but it's not a total conversion or wad for Doom, it is its own game and has quite a few differences from Doom.

This is one of the best games of the raycaster era. I remember me and my pal being very excited about the RPG elements. Interestingly enough we also noticed that it "felt" very much like Doom, even though we had no magazines or websites telling us that it did indeed use id Tech 1.

WTF, Strife on classic Amiga?!?!?!?!?!?!?

WOW, my Linux woes just went away, this is GREAT NEWS!!!!!

Can't wait to see how well it runs cause if that runs good we have a GREAT candidate for a proper engine to work under, I.E. in relation to my abandoned Alien Breed 3D work I'd started for BOOM.

My GOD this is awesome!

BTW, if this advanced of a DOOM engine can run this smooth on a 50Mhz 060, then I'm sure Heretic, Hexen, and even PrBOOM could be done without issue.

For those who love Role Playing Adventures, you may want to check into Strife...

...this ain't a FPS necessarily. ;)

Runs smooth as butter on my 060@80MHz :-) Loving it, actually prefer it over playing Doom :-)

Mine too! I finally got BOOM up and running smoothly again as well also.

This is a great day in Amiga history! ;)

Amazing some of things that are happening of late, thinking I might have to tower my A1200 and go RTG :-)

Gentic species runs really fast too, just wished I could get a higher res but for some reason they have only allowed that for RTG Amiga's.... when the indivision could handle it fine.

I just want faster IDE for the moment and I'll be happy.

I have a PPC card sitting here, installed it once to make sure it worked but I never touch it. Don't see the point without a VooDoo3 or something. Some day maybe, some day.

It is pretty amazing how well Genetic Species and Nemac IV run though!
