Speris Legacy Demo

Hey,

I am trying to find the Speris Legacy Demo version. I have the full game but I want to play the demo to check for certain changes that were made. I have read that the demo was on the CD32 Gamer demo disc for April 1995; I own that disc but the demo isn't on it. Does anyone know if the demo was on another CD32 Gamer demo disc, or if the demo is on the April 1995 disc but there is a certain way of accessing it?

Thanks

My guess is that the demo to be found on a floppy is the exatcly same demo that is to be found on a CD...

If it is the AGA-graphics you are talking about, yes, they are on the floppy demo... aswell as the pictures of all the characters you talk to... aswell as the 'The Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past'-perspective on the graphics (especially obvious inside the buildings)... and the different music...

Correct, there is no difference between the floppy or CD32 versions, demo or full game are all the same.

I still do wonder how come they changed their wonderful The Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past alike graphics (to be found in the demo) to Breath of Fire alike graphics (to be found in the final version)...


Demo


Final

Actually I do still think that the final version of The Speris Legacy looks much more like Breath of Fire than Chrono Trigger inside the houses. The fountains to be found in the first city even looks like they are stolen and modified versions of the fountains found in Breath of Fire.

I think the final style is okay.
But Team 17 made several design mistakes on their last Amiga games.
Think about the ab3d demo!

Compare SL gfx with the Team17 demos of witchwood and King of Thieves.
The gfx are much better!

KoT has a great ultima style tilebank.

I'm not getting it...? Got some pics to compare? I've been looking at screenshots now, twice... and I just don't see how it can be more similar to Chrono Trigger than Breath of Fire? Or am I just missing something?

King of Thieves looks very similar to a certain 'Final Odyssey' game.

Final Odyssey looks better though. Can anyone read the placeholder text on that first KoT screenshot? I can just read it but it bloody well hurts your eyes! lol.

I think Galahad actually worked on the project so is well placed to know which game they "copied" the style from

I figured something like that could be what was behind his comments...



But, if that is the case... then I have to ask: how come the TLoZ - ALttP was canned?

The Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past.

Chrono Trigger, the best RPG on the SNES (or any other console at the time), Zelda wasn't.

I think that is your answer Legerdemain
