I backed it.

This is a person that not only develops software for the Amiga, he has won contests with his work which keeps the Amiga name around, and does a Youtube channel where they talk Amiga, play Amiga games, show how the graphics are done.

That is true, I really enjoyed the Amos tutorials on his channel. I had been looking for something like that for ages. I don't think 4000 is a lot to ask to develop a new game for this platform. I look forward to seeing the results.

One question, people have to support all projects with the name "Amiga" on it with or without quality?


I agree. It looks like a game that would have been sent to Amiga Format as a Game of the month contester. I'm sorry, but the animation looks terrible and both the gfx and game idea looks really cheap. Why do they need 4000 for this? Want I get, but need?

4000 also is not much. How long do you think would a professional team with coders, graphicians and musicians work for 4000 EUR? One day? Three days? We should be realistic and not compare it to big commercial projects in the golden times. I had recommended to use Hollywood or Amiblitz (Blitzbasic) for it or at least use the AGA extension of Amos. For Hollywood chipset support as plugin is announced and on RTG Hollywood already runs. But it is his decision.

A few iffs and amal running on 68030????? for 4000e come on Amiten you take Amigans for suckers or your crazy?
Also this kind of stuff makes amos look bad. of course you can do a lot more in amos and it wouldnt take 3000 lines.

When you have really experience why do you not offer him to help them?

I'll back it.  Nice to see some effort at making a new game for the classic Amiga.  I do agree it is a little choppy with the animations (jumping and character movement), but I also see it is early in development and hopefully a few more frames of animation can smooth that out some.

PD: the dream of Rowan not look so bad at all, it needs a bit of improvements but i think that they would solve it

it is certainly not eye-catching and it will not overrun the markets, it is a homebrew game with mini budget. What do some people expect realistic for 4000 EUR? Examples are recent kickstarters from cinemaware, for professional game development you need professional budgets.

You are a very weird guy with your actions, speaking and writing even in your language... what is madrid+time? maybe CET?... why invite if you ban anyone with different opinion?

Im still waiting any explanation for this 4000eur goal.

@thread

let's not pollute the thread on @Amiten's new game with stuff on @Templario's. so you can continue the discussion here. i've moved the off-topic posts to that new thread.

also: you're more than welcome to disagree with folks on this forum, but not welcome to be insulting to fellow members. please keep this in mind. thanks. :)

Im not sure why he has explain anything regarding monetary goal.
My thoughts are;

In todays economy situation I can see why people look hard for ways to establish a income, even if its a first crack at a game.
Viddi with his sequel. Daniel with his efforts in Tower57, Wings etc.
All of them, this one included, ask people if they are willing to support their efforts, and hopefully it can be a foundation for something sustainable.

I do not expect you to ever agree with my post tho, since I have gotten the distinct impression that you think everything amiga related have to be free.

You are entitled to your opinion, but noone owes you any explaination why they hope for a return for their efforts.
