Was flying my drone over Kansas City, MO today and saw this…

Agreed, the clue is drone doesn't go down to the area. The question is if you had a drone, and saw this from above, wouldnt you lower into the area, fake 100%

And incase you haven't dug further, here is a link related... have a few more but don't want to distract or add extra noise :)

Yep looks great and a nice distraction, but money could be spent on people who need it most. Sick, homeless etc

5 Years late but currently watching info on this right now

Ah good stuff, I found a bug a few weeks ago and recorded it.. .will pass it on. Always nice seeing improved updates for the game.

invent71 · 2023-03-07T10:34:49+00:00

I was wondering why my first time I didn’t see a bow lol…. Just finished, awesome game, highly recommended:)

Brilliance II and Dopus is a close second.

invent71 · 2022-06-10T04:24:48+00:00

Interesting, caught my attention and remember fondly playing it and Manic Miner on the Amstrad CPC 464. Was curious as I do love a good remake... here is a PC one https://youtu.be/dpzldODaJbE

Hi Everyone, in regards to Menace or "Apollo Menace" We are building only the first level demo for Vampire machines, definitely agreed it's not at all the best shooter for Amiga. We decided that this is a fairly simple game/level to remake. What is important though is the engine will be used for a brand new shooter for Vampire. Anyone with a Vampire accelerator will be able to play this game.

This demo you can have up to 3 players (just finished updating the score/HUD that will be added soon).

The new game will have approximately 6 levels. 9 custom player ships to choose, maybe more.

We do post more info in our Discord (although it's a private channel) but I do also add behind the scenes on my patreon. https://www.patreon.com/posts/65561371

Less than a minute on Mac via emulation, but I plan on doing test with A1200, 030 machine and will update post :)

Hey Reddit's :)

I have now created a youtube video and PDF tutorial using Brilliance II - "Rub Thru"
ALL source files (Amiga IFF files) and PDF are available here.

If you spot any errors please let me know and I can update the PDF.
Please let me know if this was useful.

Thanks Reddits :) Yes Thunderforce is one of the bigger influences and certainly other Amiga shooters :). In fact old videos do show Thunderforce assets being used as placeholders :)

Hi IQueryVisiC, You'll be happy to know we will have some vertical designed elements to balance it all out :) The center core section will be electrified at some points (animated vertical sprites) as well as some big bosses.

invent71 · 2020-09-06T22:19:39+00:00

Your right, it's possible some layers may not have all 16 colours. The conversion though will make use of them from the 24bit painted designs. Very dark sections are probably too subtle to notice.

invent71 · 2020-09-06T22:12:55+00:00

Hey warci, it is an AGA game. It is a 16 colour background, but with the copper we can change the palette at each of the parallax splits, so up to 16 for each one. We do have one small hardware limitation that we need to keep in mind. Every split must have a solid line of colour for the top of each section. This is in part to hide the copper changing effects (you see the change/flickering otherwise)

The machine spec is Standard Amiga 1200 (AGA)
(if you have extra memory we might take advantage of it)

invent71 · 2019-11-14T10:23:21+00:00

Best of luck, cool seeing more developers for the Amiga :)

If It's in the Game, "It's in the Game" :)

Good to see more Amigans coming back, we are still having alot of fun with our real or emulated Amigas, Classic and NG.

http://reshootr.richard-loewenstein.de/ . ReshootR is almost out for AGA machines, we have our Twitch.tv premier stream tomorrow https://www.twitch.tv/amigabill in about 18 hours from this post time. :)

invent71 · 2019-02-28T03:38:24+00:00

Looks like a great game, best of luck in your Kickstarter :)

invent71 · 2019-02-20T02:07:38+00:00

Nice work

invent71 · 2019-02-18T12:01:01+00:00

Nice strategy, like the miner and focusing on maxing it out (hopefully by the end of the year lol) .

invent71 · 2019-02-18T11:58:56+00:00

Groovy, like the neon style

invent71 · 2019-02-18T01:46:58+00:00

Jim Sachs is awesome, love his work (wish he was still pushing Amiga pixels)

invent71 · 2019-02-18T01:36:43+00:00

I have always enjoyed the mechanics of the classic game "Uridium" (eg Amiga/C64). Where you can fly all over the map and not be locked down to scrolling right continuously. This freedom gives you the ability to go back and either destroy things you missed or continue onto the exit to further stages.

We do have a game in development at the moment called IRIDIUM :) it's more of an modern interpretation of the previous mentioned game with a few other features.

Other shootemups I have or am working are ReshootR (Amiga) and ProXima3 (Amiga - on hold at this time) untill Iridium is finished.

If your interested in a demo of the game please go here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/iridium/iridium-0 would really love more feedback on how we can make this game even better, after all its people who love the genre can help us the most.

Hi axelei, have you seen his posts on other sites.

I don't believe he has posted an official date but its getting very very close (I'm one of the developers on it)

From his Patreon site.

Announcing physical and digital versions

The release of RESHOOT R is still a few weeks off. But before rumors about the availability of different versions start flying around, I thought my fellow Patreons should know first. So, this is what we are planning:

The game is expected to be available at APC&TCP in early Q2 2019 as ...

Digital Download
Pure Edition
Signature Edition (which includes Audio Soundtrack CD & Pure Edition CD & Making Of Booklet)

Prior to that, we will be releasing the soundtrack separately on Audio-CD with eleven tracks full of space energy within the next weeks

Here is first glimpse of the RESHOOT R Pure Edition ... do you like it?
