It is damn close, couple of bugs to squash I think then .. SHIP IT!!!

Girolamo85 · 17 April 2023, 11:10

hype!

So quick update from me.

Last nights stream was the last development stream and the game is FINISHED!

There is still more testing to be done just to make sure everything is working correctly but the last play test on stream showed zero bugs ( apart from a small bug I created on stream which got fixed! )

We've now set the wheels in motion at Thalamus Digital for the release. More details on that will follow in due course.

I can confirm however that the game is playable from Floppy Disk, WHDLoad and CD32. Saving of data is supported in all three formats. It might even boot on a CDTV if you have some fast ram installed but I wouldn't recommend that as there is no NV storage.

oh.. and I need to write up the readme / copy for the manual.

oh.. and record the soundtrack from original hardware.

Great news!

Btw the CDTV has 2k of ‘bookmark’ memory storage that could be used.

Very nice

This will be a great one!

awesome, will it be buyable from the thalamusdigital website or other means? also cant wait for emergency streams as you fix more bugs now a larger playerbase/bughunting team is on the job

malko · 27 April 2023, 22:31

Great news. Can't wait !
Thanks for this port h0ffman

Girolamo85 · 01 May 2023, 11:06

Can't wait to play it!!!!

Aulapatchuc · 02 May 2023, 14:45

When will it be available? This has to be one of the greatest releases of modern Amiga games.

Thanks for all your effort h0ffman!

TCD · 28 August 2023, 09:11

I think h0ffman has forgotten about it by now

A500 · 28 August 2023, 19:42

Oh nooo

riker77 · 28 August 2023, 20:08

I think we'll have to wait for a word from https://www.thalamusdigital.co.uk/, as they are publishing the game.

h0ffman · 05 September 2023, 18:37

Quick update... One very last minute soft locking bug fixed (thanks to James at Amiga Addict for finding it) and additional support for the Abstraction DS controller are in place.

Everything is still moving on the physical release, just waiting for the floppy disks to arrive and then we may be in a position to take some pre-orders.

I've seen some of the additional bits and pieces for the physical release, all looking rather lovely.

TCD · 05 September 2023, 18:39

Great to hear that things are still moving forward

Predseda · 05 September 2023, 19:11

Will you be there at A38 with your game, H0ffman?

jurassicman · 05 September 2023, 19:22

@h0ffman
I see you are in UK... it will be possible to buy the game from a European seller (maybe Alinea) as well?
Or at least on Ebay... even if they are scammers their Global Shipping Program is better than waiting months for Customs clearance (and many times Customs fees are absolutely unjustified)...

All out of my hands as Thalamus are dealing with that side of things but I will ask the question. With regards to unfair customs charges, speaking form experience in my previous job this is very much controlled by the carrier of the shipment and the receiving countries customs department. Most of them are bastards.
