This creators of this retro style "chaos engine" clone is, according to their latest update, considering an AmigaOS 4 port (which they claim should be possible).

I'm pushing for an MorphOS and AROS port too But I think the more people that shows their support for such a port, the more likely it will be that it happens (if it's really technically possible that is. Remember the Wings remake).

Why on earth wouldn't it be? If a something like a Sam can't handle a game like that then that's pretty damned sad. In fact, when I see such a game all I can do is think about how it should be possible to do on AGA+68030 (with reduced graphics, of course, and NOT a simple port, but rather a handwritten engine from scratch, obviously).

Not if they use Unity for example. Or use code that are too demanding. Or just don't know how to program for an NG Amiga.

They will of course. I just found out some 10 minutes ago in a comment

I doubt we will see a classic port. They program in C++, not ASM. But pester them and see if they warm up to that idea too
