Porting software from pc.

[Im>bE]

I see that some are discussing
what software they would like to see ported
from pc to Amiga.

But THE ONLY prog WORTH porting
is Elasto mania.

Elasto mania is a game with high playability
and that is ALL that matters in a game.
In my view it is the BEST game on pc,
because it has variability playability
lastability addictability incredibability
and most importantly it has no meaningless
body parts exploding or an awesome intro anim
much better than the game itself.


Ignore all those other progs.
ELASTO MANIA IS THE ONLY ONE -WORTH- PORTING.


Hell, when I think of it
we don't need to port anything,
just develop from scratch instead!
Better that, than to lose all speed by porting.


While I am at it;
WHY ASSIMILATE PROGS FROM WINDOWS!???

just develop creative stuff with your own brains!!

I don't have a screenshot,
neither do I actually play the game regularly.


I do make games on amiga 68k,
and try to be creative about it,
and in constant search for more playability.


simple porting will make a prog very slow
compared to on its original platform.
there are several examples of pc games ported to amiga that are slow for no apparent reason,
thus lame unoptimized code is only getting it to work, and then it can be sold.

>that's a sad fact.

nothing is a fact.


ie:
60 low moraled pushed sick workers
getting headaches from using Windows,
may not be able to achieve
what 1 happy tripping high moraled
Workbench user can.


I agree with the time stuff.

When done at a fulltime day of work,
it may not be so easy to start developing.
