Smile NEW AmigaOS 4.x game arriving soon!!

Hi everyone

Wanted to share a soon to be released game for AmigaOS 4.x. It is none other than the famed Amiga retro shooter Battle Squadron with all its glory and landing very soon.
I have enclosed the first ingame fullscreen screenshot in HD 1920*1080 also showing a real-time pixel blending technique used in the game.

(Note on AOS4 - screensize tested 1024x768)

Looks ugly. Like emulation with these "hires fake" filters 2xSai, Eagle etc. Why not a real HD remake for modern platforms (including PC). Look at Duck Tales HD, it's in the spirit of the old NES game and looks/plays really good. Too time-consuming to redraw the BS graphics i assume?

I have to agree - you can get a similar effect by emulating the original with a filter. Would be much better with new highres gfx especially drawn for the project.

It may look ugly on big display but better on smaller. I'm not sure if someone still use Commodore Amiga CRT monitor with OS 4.x
