New Game - Rotator

[Predseda]

Game should be ready for pre-order on Psytronik website from January 18th.

I'm going to be cavalier, i'm going to be both 'ripping off' the old version and Pre-Ordering the new version I bought Black Dawn Rebirth so this one deserves a purchase too

Also noticed some typos on the 'Help' screen, please check the spelling of the following words if not already corrected in the new release:

1st help screen:
youre is corrected to say you're
Im is corrected to say I'm
disapoint is corrected to say disappoint
peice is corrected to say piece

2nd help screen:
relavant is corrected to say relevant
Sensetivity is corrected to say Sensitivity

4th help screen:
accessable is corrected to say accessible

5th help screen:
Change text keyhole the same shape to say: keyhole of the same shape

6th help screen:
cant is corrected to say can't

The 5D version can also be 1 Disked, I used Crunchmania for exe and data plus the RTDD loader, but real coders will 1 Disk it far better than me

The new version scrolling looks more 'friendly' too, but being able to switch to 'motion sickness' mode is cool too Regarding specs, is 1mb chip minimal, like BDR was?

Roll on January 18th

Is there a demo version of the new engine?

Good question! I would be interested in the purchase but I'd like to play a demo before paying for the full game...

[Predseda]

AmigaBill played the demo in his stream.

[CFou!]

the game play reminds me of Cauldron 2 on Amstrad:

Static screen with no scrolling, maybe this should be a 3rd option in Rotator?

There will (if not already) be a demo on the Pystronik website on itch.io

Nothing showing currently!

Original demo of "Rotator" was available long time ago (I guess somewhere in the late 90s). It is available on Aminet.

[timeslip1974]

its moved on a lot since the original demo! I`ll chase up with Pystronik today to check about the demo for you

Yes, I noticed it while I was watching the movie. But still, demo shows general concept, nevertheless a new demo would be nice.

[timeslip1974]

for me it's unplayable

too many jumps, maybe the solution is to not center the camera to the player ?

Also the same here, within a couple of mins of watching the video lol.


But in my old age i find im more and more affected by this, games back in the day never bothered me but nowadays i can feel sick shortly after starting to play, i can no longer play Duke 3D,Doom,Half Life,Spyro the Dragon , but strangely im fine with the quake and Unreal games.. also fine with most Amiga FPS game, like AB3D,Gloom etc


Much better with the improved camera thats been added, can actually watch it no problems now

It never effected us when we were developing it, it was only after all the feedback we figured we`d better put the new camera option in!

Much appreciated , looks (and feels) much better now, at least now i can look forward to the game as i know ill be able to play it
As long as theres a digital download option of course.

xubidoo: try Zerosphere

[BarryB]

Now available to pre-order from Binary Zone

Pre-Ordered mine, have YOU?

[DamienD]

...not at £39.99 £35.99; that's absolutely mental

We're not talking new PC / PS4 / Xbox One quality games here... and it's really just a slightly more polished version of the unreleased 1992 game.

I hope the digital download will not be as extortionate; otherwise I'll definitely not bother.

[BarryB]

I know, pre-orders used to be £29.99, but now they're £35.99. I think this maybe my last physical order from them due to the prices, I know I like collecting boxes but I can't see them lowering the prices unless they just sell the box with disk/tape/cart and manual!
