New physical game release: Zerosphere
Don't know how, but this news has gone somehow unnoticed here on EAB... remember the game which won the interactive compo at Evoke 2015?
Well, that game was Zerosphere and it has now been released as a physical disk/cd-rom in 2 different editions with many improvements and brand new levels: It can be ordered from here: PolyPlay Last edited by lilalurl; 12 September 2018 at 13:02. |

Ordered my copy last week, and already received it: most probably the best physical Amiga release in terms of presentation and box quality/content made in at least the last couple of years.
Here are some pictures I took: Ian: Dodgy links removed. funK, can you upload directly or host on a site not setting off panic alarms on malware lists Last edited by Ian; 15 October 2018 at 21:04. |

I don't exactly remember now, but going by the comments on Pouet, apart from the features improvement, it seems like the original only had 12 levels... Regarding the digital version: when you buy the game, you also get a MicroSD with a disk image on it and that's the only digital version available at the moment, afaik... |

losso is a member here:
http://eab.abime.net/member.php?u=48272 therefore, next time he checks EAB, he should be able to provide some answers. Maybe someone can send him a PM to point him to this thread (post here if you do so, so that he doesn't receive multiple PMs) |

Why not grabbing the digital version for free from autor's website:
http://heckmeck.de/demoscene/zerosphere/ Or is this not the version you speaking of? |

That's original version released in 2015 and without the extra levels unfortunately.
I have no problem supporting the author / paying for the new version but as digital download though |

ToAks has just posted a nice and pretty fair review of this game on his blog, here:
http://blog.amigaguru.com/?p=28427 I know it's not exactly what you're looking for, but after my purchase, Poly.Play provided me a digital disk image to download, too. |

Whoops, how did I miss this thread…
Anyhoo, to shed some light on the difference to the 2016 version (for those who haven’t read it on the backside of their pyhsical boxes yet )
Half of the work went into code and graphics, the other half into level design. Since a colleague of mine set up a RetroPie at my employer’s smoking/table soccer room, I got to collect a lot of test player feedback, which really helped the game. For giggles, here’s a the commit log of the 2018 improvements. PS: Huge thanks to everyone supporting this! |

Maybe a limit of the shop software. Saw this before in other shops iirc. You should get the download link.
