So, I'd like to write a new Amiga game - what do you want to see? - Page 5

+1 for any Tower Defense game,
Maybe "Mr Driller" clone [ Show youtube player ] , I know that was not done on Amiga yet.
and +1 Canabalt for Amiga

Thanks! You probably missed it as it's buried away somewhere early in the thread but it's this:

Excellent idea

I have a lot of respect for people who are willing to give up their free time for writing a new game.

I remember writing a address-phone directory programme in Sinclair Basic on the 128k 2+ (1987) it took me about 3 months to write (sometimes 12-14 hours a day). Unfortunately no one would publish it

Still am 'dead proud' of my achievement

BTW: a good port (if it was possible) would be something like the Risk styled Shogun/Medieval totalwar series. It's pretty low spec on the PC.

Watching with great interest

Thank you for your support

I'm not sure if you've seen it but I started a thread tracking my progress with my game project here. I hope you find it an interesting read, and as you will see I upload new WIP versions on a reasonably regular basis.

How about something like Aztec Challenge? [ Show youtube player ] Highest jump - most points but you must be aware all the time.

I think I'll concentrate on just the one project for now

Remember the demo of Project X with the speed section?.. Well how about a small game that expands that idea into a small self contained game, you could have a music module that is matched to the length of the level, the music it's self could start off quite calm but progressively gets more intense as you progress to the end? I would be more than happy to provide the music if required

Possible power-ups such as score multipliers, slow time and temporary invicibilty. A high score saver?

You mean something like Spatial Hyperdrive?
