looks great, good luck.

CD format and CPU 68020?! no disks for my lovely A500+??? ;[

Retro-Nerd · 25 July 2015, 19:09

It's a Backbone (game maker) created game. Your Amiga 500 is way too weak to handle it.

Predseda · 25 July 2015, 23:53

Patrick, will this really work with 020, or it is minimum again and 030+ is recommended (in short: engine remains the same)?

viddi · 26 July 2015, 05:37

030 is still recommended, but it´ll also work on 020 + 1MB Fast.

I´m now using an optimised 32 colour palette and redefined other things like sprites, overlay blocks and so on...

Lol, I bought the first game along with an indi aga mk ii back in November, and the parcel they're in is still unopened, might get round to opening it one day and seeing what the game is actually like

Just pre-ordered this, do I pay now or later?

I have a better idea:

Preorder the sequel, leave it unopened until 2017 and then sell both games as rare items on Ebay.

BarryB · 26 July 2015, 15:50

I pre-ordered and realised the 200 supporters had already been reached, so no gold for me

Nope! Go for gold.

It was a translation mistake...

Thanks for the info.

Nice one! I loved the first game, as you know. I will massively look forward to the second instalment.

Just to clarify: when I pre-order, do I get charged for that instantly, or will that only happen on the 15th September?

BarryB · 26 July 2015, 17:07

I didn't get an option to pay? Think they send a payment request on 15.9.2015 if the project goes ahead if I understand correctly?

Correct!

Patrick: find an asm coder, or even a good Amos programmer, and make a proper action-rpg with the same gfx and msx. Backbone is so limited.... I bought TOG and it's just a shame, that good gfx and soundtrack are wasted by using such slow and limited game maker. You need a proper engine for this game.

Just pre-order if you like and it will happen on the 15th.
But if we´ll reach the goal earlier the email will be sent earlier, too.

Thanks for your purchase.

The engine is faster now.

I know Backbone´s limitations, but I and the majority of Amigans think it is a good game.

That's good news, I like Gold

Is there a counter of how many supporters so far?

Maybe Galahad will help code ToG III

Graham Humphrey · 26 July 2015, 19:26

Aha, makes sense now, thanks chaps for the help!

Predseda · 26 July 2015, 21:42

Alinea Computer has some copies left, but it is the version without a labeled CD.
