Amiga Gaming Remakes: Spotlight on Carrier Command
« on: October 13, 2012, 09:44:34 AM »
Amiga Gaming Remakes is a brand new service on Amiga.org and will cover the very fashionable trend of remaking and or rereleasing famous Amiga games on modern platforms. Sometimes this will just be a News links and background information about the game, other times we will get interviews with the developers themselves or do a diary of an upcoming game release. Today's focus is Carrier Command based on the famous original for the Amiga 500.

Not to be nitpicking but "Based on 1988 Realtime Software/Rainbird Atari ST release" ;-)

The remake has been slated by every reviewer world wide. The AI of your forces is terrible and planned attacks can often fail due to your craft getting stuck, or going round in circles instead of attacking :(

No Online multiplayer :(
