Arrow Commodore Amiga Legend arrives on AmigaOS 4.X + FREE DEMO LINK

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Cope-Com development team are proud to announce that through further collaboration with our partners GoldenCode.eu and Seal Of Action Publishing you can now play our famed classic Amiga shooter on your AmigaOS 4.X.

Please see the following links, youtube and also download a Free Demo on AmigaOS 4.X, PC, Mac.

Free Demo: http://www.sealofaction.com
Website: http://copecom.com
Press Material: http://copecom.com/news.html
Youtube: [ Show youtube player ]



Battle Squadron was originally developed by Cope-Com for the Commodore Amiga Home Computer in 1989 and received numerous awards making it an instant Amiga Classic. In 2011 Come-Com released Battle Squadron for iOS mobile devices, and in 2012 for Android with our partner GoldenCode.eu.
We are now happy to announce that together with our partner GoldenCode.eu we are returning to the Amiga… making Battle Squadron available on Amiga OS 4.X, in addition to Mac and PC. Battle Squadron is available through both digital download and a pre-order special collectors edition with the signature from the original developers and the coder making it possible to return to Amiga OS 4.X.
The collectors edition contains all desktop versions: Amiga OS 4.X, Mac, and PC. The new desktop version is an exact replica of the original famed Amiga game, just as it was for iOS and Android. In addition, the desktop version has great new features… still matching the original retro style

Cheers
Cope-Com

They are also among the few who have fulfilled what he promised

It is good that you do not go around making a lot of bets on that. You would quickly end up as a poor man very fast.

A little clue as to why it is not "emulated", is the shadows on all flying objects in the air. That is a new graphics feature for the desktop AOS4, Mac, PC versions, which adds depth to the view field.
Per default it is already enabled, but if not you will find it under options>graphics>shadows on/off

Cheers

I think it is great that you could find the time or allow other people to develop your great game for OS4.0

I don't think you'll make your investment back but your kudos factor has gone up 10 points!

A developers log about each different version and the challenges faced would be an interesting good read.

Thanks alexh,
And giving your words it also emphasizes to everyone that by supporting us you also contribute to the continued development and more importantly the community.
If you haven't already done so, you can give yourself that great Amiga retro christmas gift - "For the man that has everything...", by heading over to our store and our new game portal:
Game Portal:
http://copecom.com
Webstore:
http://sealofaction.com

Also your great idea on using log or blogging is something in which we earlier on did a fair amount of. Perhaps we should re-start that process again. Thanks
