Block Off! A new AMOS puzzle game

saimon69 · 15 March 2018, 00:27

A new puzzle game made in AMOS by Colin Vella;
was originally called Block Head until we found the name was already taken :/
I contributed the in-game musics and am actually working on main tune
(the actual title tune is a placeholder put by Colin)

Game is still in progress so try to follow the thread for updates

Note: Does not work on stock A500 setup, A1200 config recommended

This is what AMOS is good for

Just 3 Levels ?

Also sometimes get a disk errors (See Grabs)

I really like these kind of match up the blocks games. Looking forward to the final version with tons of levels!

Seems so.

Since the game has a level editor, maybe we (the community) can help create some levels?

Quite an interesting work you've done there guys!
Would love to see this complete. Well done!

Predseda · 15 March 2018, 20:32

Nice. I do not get any errors, all three levels, credits, hall of fame and editor work for me.

nice game

Why no stock A500-config? Doesn't seem too demanding. After all it's no Backbone stuff and I think(!) Amos should be good enough for this kind of game on an A500.

I was emulating an A500 (half + half)
Tried a stock 1200 but it was Slower (but no disk errors ?)

Tried the Editor but the last 2 rows were un-reachable [PAL/NTSC ?]

Yup = 3.5.0

Will have to watch that Video --- I don't understand level 4
