Title: Which Amiga games would you like to see ported to Mobile
Post by: hbarcellos on October 28, 2013, 11:54:53 PM
Which Amiga games would you like to see ported to iOS?
But, forget about Joystick, Keyboard and Mouse playability.
Remember that on a tablet/smartphone you only have the touch-screen + accelerometer. That normally means that playing Turrican is horrible....

Here are a couple to start with

1 Swiv
2 Stunt Car Racer
3 F1 - WiFi or Bluetooth link to play against live competitors

4 F16
5 Desert Strike
6 Falcon WiFi or Bluetooth link

I think player v player or players would be a brilliant concept :swords:

Damn, I see the site still isn't fixed log-in wise.

Games ported to a mobile device such a phone seem pretty useless to me. Way too small a picture, horrible controls and yet another reason to look like the rest of the zombies as you stare down at something small between your legs. That said, the Pinball Fantasies translation worked out pretty well!  :laughing:

player v player..

I forget the name, but I used to play it over a modem.  Has a skull as the  main screen.  Damn..I forget what it was.  I know someone here will figure it out.

I second Stunt Car Racer.

The Lotus racing games.  I think racing games (or basically anything where you can use the tilting as a steering device) would work fairly well.  Plus we might finally get some decent draw distance!

K240.  I would buy that, especially if it let you pick between new and original versions of all the structures, and also let you build without threat of alien attack.

Any and all point and click adventure games!  I know Simon the Sorcerer is already on it, and I can run SCUMMVM to get some of the other best ones, but I'd like to play games like Nippon Safes Inc., Universe and the like.

Mega-lo-Mania.  I've played the open source version on my SIII and it worked really well.

Marble Madness.  As if that game wasn't hard enough!  But it does seem to lend itself nicely to tilting.

Defender of the Crown!

Lotus, Stunt car, moonstone, wings.
The gameplay feeling must be exact :-D
BT joy/mouse/keyboard must be supported for those of us we have them as an option.

I remember that 'Renegade' had something like that, although it was not a multiplayer modem game.

I'd like to see 'Damocles' on portable devices, and 'Virus'.
