The status panel in Crossbow : The Legend of William Tell shows 6 active bitplanes in the WinUAE visual debugger, so I guess it's in Extra Half-Brite mode.

But the game area itself uses only 16 colors.

That's one of the best uses of DP mode that I have ever seen..

Kudos for that, Dan...

nice old thread
i have a question
do i remember correctly also Alien Breed 2 AGA was developed using this mode?

or was it the standard release that used 64 colors instead of 32?

Pang is also a great example of using 64 colors.

Not sure if Elfmania uses it... probably.. graphics in that game are insane.

Eye of the Beholder II, but only in the final area?

This screenshot have 42 colors, while every screenshot from other areas have less than 32.
