It's not up to me. Order the digital version if you like the game.

This looks truly stellar, ordered just now. It's a privilege to have access to this level of Amiga awesomeness in 2022 -- thank you!

It does look stunning, but will there be a demo released before the actual game is released?

The demo will be available, don't know yet when exactly.

This looks and sounds amazing.
Shipping to Norway, is that Zone 4?

$46AUD for a digital download of a game featuring a ball bouncing down a tunnel?

Does indeed look fun, but I can get so much more out of $46AUD than what this will give.

$10 and yes I would have bought it.

i have the same opinion like user haps posting before: €29 really is very pricey for a game like this.
i think i'll keep playing atari800 and c64 versions of yoomp for the time being which are both availible for free. although i prefer atari version out of these two i must admit, as it features both music and sound at the same time in contrast to c64 version.

I'm another potential customer that is completely put off by the price. It looks like a great quality effort & deserving of support. Sad & frustrating that a lot of folks will be forced to give it a miss (as cant justify/afford paying that) ... reminds me of Reshoot R.

It'd probably be wiser to release the boxed edition first, wait a few months to maximize collector purchases, then do digital for ~15E.

I been waiting a long time for this one and it did not disappoint
The gameplay is fantastic and the gfx, music is outstanding.
Played on real A1200/030 with CRT.
Take my money when finished. I'm not interested in boxed games but will buy the digital.

If there was a bit processing power left, it would look even better if the ball moved around at 50 fps. Theoretically that can be done even if it's a bob and not a hw sprite and the rest of the game runs at 25 fps.

The ball is not a hw sprite, is a bob and has about 80 colors.

You could support the creator a bit faster

Yes I know, that's why I wrote "even if it is not a hw sprite". After first frame (1/50 sec) you could do a bob restore/move/repaint to front buffer in vblank, so it's updated for second frame (1/50 sec). The shadow of the ball probably would not be that noticeable if it kept updating at only 25 fps.
