Hello,

Sorry this thread is pretty old, I hope you don't mind if I reply to it anyway :-)
I'm the programmer of "Giana's Return" so I can tell you, this is not a fake. I've been struggling to get the permission from the original author of the game, and a few weeks ago, I finally got it. I've also been in contact with the authors of Giant Worlds, and I am allowed to use their graphics. At the moment I'm working hard to finish a first version for the GP32 and shortly after that for the Dreamcast. It's possible that other systems will follow. I'm really looking forward to releasing it, one year after starting the project.

The game will be available here:
http://www.gianas-return.de/

It will also feature levels designed by Kojote (http://www.pdroms.com/) and music by Alexander Oldemeier and me.

If you're interested in my other projects, have a look here:

See ya :-)
Chris

lempkee,

I will try and port it to the Amiga when the GP32 and Dreamcast versions are out. The problem is, the best Amiga I have is an A4000/030 with 17 (or so) MB RAM, Retina Z3 and 170MB harddisk. The game needs a 66MHz CPU to run well, and an 8bit linear frame buffer to render its graphics into. I hope the Amiga version of SDL offers that...

Anyway, I'll try it :-)
