Joust, Gauntlet, Super Sprint now on Amiga!

Gauntlet, Joust, Super Sprint are now out on Amiga, having been reverse engineered from the Atari ST versions. This is awesome.

But...can anyone get Super Sprint running? Giving me issues on my ECS A2000.

Cheers.

Yea -- orig Gauntlet was never on Amiga, thought it was planned and even advertised. The character sizes and other touches of Gauntlet on ST vs. Gauntlet II on Amiga have me dramatically preferring the ST Gauntlet. Nice to see this on the Amiga.

Wish I could get SSprint running tho.

Hmm. Super Sprint reports an error on my A2000 ECS in standard config (4 MB FAST) or in 68020 mode (with 2MB more 32-bit FAST).

3.1 ROM, WB

Did anyone ever get Super Sprint working? I can't run it on my A2000 020 with 3.1.

I just tried Joust on my 512K CHIP 2MB FAST A1000 1.3 but it won't run - blips screen end back to command line, so I guess all of these need 3.1?

Time for sleep.

Good advice... See you guys around!:pint:
Answering my own question, I see Super Sprint requires AGA.

Thinking about this...I wonder why Super Spring needs AGA? The ST version of Super Sprint is great and runs fine on a base 520ST. (It may require 1MB RAM, but I seriously doubt it.)
