Newly finished Atari ST Shooter!

Fred the Fop · 13 June 2004, 07:59

Hey guys...if you are a 16 bit shooter fan, take a look here, on the AtariAge forums:

http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=50055

This Atari ST user went back to finish the game "Bold", left in limbo since the latye 80's. And judging by the screenshots, I was impressed. Game play was even better! Power-ups and control were really nice. I have linked to his homepage and the game here. The game is very much like Forgotten Worlds.
Also, look at the other 2 games he was working on back in the late 80's, and he was only 13!

thanks for the link, this guy has really taste and skill at it. the shot-em up has his own version of bitmap brothers' crispin... then there is a early stage of a very promising elite-like game and check also the rpg half dungeon master and half black crypt!

It's like a bloody ripoff of lots of games, but well, he did it back then as a kid for fun, so it's OK and looks cool, I wonder how it plays....

Well, duh! Why don't you either transfer it into an Atari ST disk or use WinSTon or Steem?

What an excellent game Bold is. A mixture of forgotten worlds and r-type. Lovely control via the mouse. This guy is VERY talented. I hope he will be able to make more games for the ST. A+

Hey gang, an update.
Bold has been fixed (v 1.1) because there'd be problems with different versions of TOS.
Enjoy!

any chance some one hitting him up for the source so some ace amiga coder, can port it to our platform =]??

Dastardly · 25 June 2004, 13:30

His stuff looks very nice.

I wish the EABers could get together and create a new Amiga game. Surely all the talent we'd ever need is right here.

Amiga1992 · 25 June 2004, 17:38

Nobody is interested I guess. Just look at my try from last year:
http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=10712

I wish I could still pull this.

Dastardly · 25 June 2004, 17:57

Yeah its a shame it never happened. Even a bog standard EABized pac man clone would be something.

Marcuz · 25 June 2004, 18:45

heck my try at working a eye of the beholder clone sunk too

Thank you for reminding me to check out a new version.

I have used it in the past ( linux version ) and it was already good and portable ( open source, steem authors wrote steem will be open source, but in 2 years nothing has changed both in the license and in the distribution )
