Leirbag, sorry I missed your post earlier. To answer your questions.

1. Cammy's real name is Moya, she's 22 and plays Amiga games and reads comics all day.
2. I don't think she can dance, she really only listens to classical/orchestral music normally.
3. Whever possible, all our games will be as compatible as possible. At the moment, since this first game (the Halloween one) is made in Backbone, we can only work with the limitations of the program itself. Fortunately it supports overscan, but slows down the larger the screen is. Because of this, we will bring out a few different versions to download. One will be for expanded Amigas and will be in PAL overscan with a panel across the bottom (showing lives, health and score). Another version for NTSC Amigas with a smaller panel, running in NTSC overscan resolution as well. There will be a CD32 version and an A500 version with a smaller screen too, because the game doesn't run very fast on those systems at the moment.

Once we've got some coders working with us, hopefully they will try and meet all our quality standards, which will hopefully mean lots of full-screen games, without confining black borders around them.

We're not sure about using the name Cammy, just because Moya loves the character (from Street Fighter) so much, she might not want to reuse the name for an inferior character.

And yeah, she dresses up as Cammy a lot. She has the green costume from Super Street Fighter II (as well as a blue "Player 2" version of it) and her blue costume from Street Fighter Alpha 3 and the VS games.

Rebel-CD32, are you logged in as Cammy again, or does Cammy always talk about herself in the third person?

I did it again, but I swear I did log in as myself that last time, I blame IE. I'll have to figure out why Opera doesn't submit posts/PMs anymore.
Amiga user forever.

This game is the kind of thing that would be cool bundled with the Minimig if ever a company got hold of the idea.

It could almost bring new life to the OCS gaming platform!

I'm not sure if a bundled flash card to hold the ADF would be worth it though.

Your site looks really good, and we'd definitly appreciate some help getting our site up. There's just one thing though, the site needs to be coded in pure HTML and use really small and efficient images. It just makes sure the site is clean and works with all browsers, and loads quick enough for us poor dialup users.

I wouldn't blame you for not wanting to help anymore, I know coding by hand is a lot harder (I had my own Cammy site once which I coded and it took ages). I'd do it myself again, except I'm too busy making the game right now.

Music is also one thing we desperately need. The game needs some title screen music as well as in-game music, and a little sample or jingle for the Underground Arcade screen. Have you heard the music in Slam Tilt? Something like the bonus tracks in the Demon table would be cool.

If anyone wants to help out, we're setting up a developer forum, it's secure so we can share our ideas and work, if you would like to join, please send me or Rebel-CD32 a PM.

I accidently just posted that without logging out of Cammy's account first, so just pretend Optimus Prime said everything above and not Cammy.


That's ok, she can be our "amiga" Lady since it looks like she was born the same year the A1000 came out.  :roflmao:

I think you guys are doing a great thing and if you need any help coding for your website i know html very well and I make a lot of layouts using tables. I also know php and flash but I sure pure html will be better for you type of site.

Examples

Algorhythm Radio
A1200T Blizzard 1240/040/128MB Mediator Voodoo 3
A4000 Cyberstorm MkIII Picasso IV
A1200 020 Viper 8mb
Macmini G4 Morphos 3.1

I downloaded Backbone and the Halloween demo and will run that on another machine at school.

I wanted to know if anyone has done this in Hollywood?
Thanks.
