NEW AmigaOS 4.x game arriving soon!!
« on: August 24, 2013, 12:12:02 PM »
Hi everyone :)

Wanted to share a soon to be released game for AmigaOS 4.x. It is none other than the famed Amiga retro shooter Battle Squadron with all its glory and landing very soon.
I have enclosed the first ingame fullscreen screenshot in HD 1920*1080 also showing a real-time pixel blending technique used in the game.

(Note AOS4 screensize tested 1024*768)

Thanks,
There will be improvements, like ingame achievements, but I will wait on the press release to say what exactly those improvements are :)

Hi Torben
Wow, thanks for this I don,t own an OS4 capable machine (yet) but it's nonetheless a great news and commitments.
Will it be an online only download or do you plan to do a packaging like what does Psytronik or RGCD?

For now I'll play the OS X version. Any plan for multiple platform prices?

Please please please please please port it to MorphOS.  I'll buy it, i'll even pay for a pre-order!

I already have bought the Android version twice for different devices (One for me and one for my 14yr old son) and it is excellent, plays even better than the original did on my A500 back in the day and triggers off so many great memories of that period of my life. :)

The Zipstick was designed for this game, without such a quality controller it falls down (didn't like the Sega version with pads nope not one bit)

Actually if we could have a budget packaging re-release on 3.5" disk for real Amigas that would be great, I'm not paying 100 bucks on ebay for a copy of the game...noooooooo way mr ebay :)

I'm afraid the words "budget" and "3.5" disk" will never be in the same sentence again. They don't make the things anymore so that makes them rare thus expensive, plus there probably are not many places where floppies can be written to and be packaged up either thus adding more cost.

True words about the ZipStick, I hammered mine to death and it took about 3yrs to eventually break. Would love a USB version with extra buttons that was built to the same or higher quality.  I don't really play Amiga or PC games that much but with one of these I'd definitely start up again!
