Solomon's Key 2 Amiga conversion

hukka · 27 January 2015, 18:55

I have released my Amiga remake of the underrated NES puzzle platformer Solomon's Key 2 aka Fire'N Ice. Written in 100% assembly and should run on any setup.

Features include builtin level editor and saving/loading your progress. Some features from the original are missing: levels containing lava or enemies; some cutscenes and sound effects; final boss battle. Still, the game can be completed normally and bonus worlds are included.

The game can be played using either the keyboard, normal joystick or 2-button joystick/gamepad (tested using Megadrive pad).

Available in ADF, CD32 executable and WHDLoad flavors.

don't know that one but it looks great :-)

TCD · 27 January 2015, 19:24

Looks interesting

I'll give it a go later!

Edit: Nice intro

Edit 2: Great conversion! Really like that you added a save feature

Looks great, i would like a workbench version please !

jimmy2x2x · 27 January 2015, 20:32

Going to try it now, looks great!

jbenam · 27 January 2015, 21:26

A workbench version would be the cherry on the pie

Retro-Nerd · 27 January 2015, 21:36

Really good conversion. We need a WHDLoad Patch.

BigFan · 27 January 2015, 21:42

Good candidate for a CD32 conversion as well

hukka · 27 January 2015, 21:42

Thanks for the comments! Currently reading the WHDload docs!

TCD · 27 January 2015, 22:03

The game is quite addictive

Really good choice for a conversion. I hope you keep up converting NES games if your time permits

Hey! good conversion! I like it so much!

liviux76 · 27 January 2015, 22:25

Very nice game!
I didn't know the original but this conversion is so enjoyable... I just completed the first 18 levels... and another great thing is the "save" feature.
Thanks and congrats on your job!

First heard of this game with the Wanted team ST conversion. This has a home on my A1200 now, congrats! =)

Hi hukka, beautifully well done game! Very close to the original.

Galahad/FLT · 28 January 2015, 10:09

Nice, its great that others are doing stuff. How about Kings Valley?

WayneK · 28 January 2015, 12:38

That is really good Hukka, great work. Nice music (conversion) & extra points for the little crack intro too

Im guessing Brainwalker would appreciate the background effect

Yeah, I loved the effect in the Ministry cracktro so I had to steal the idea!

For my next game I'll probably want to make something new that's not a remake. Dunno what that'll be yet, though.

Excellent work Hukka!

Love it!

Excellent! Thanks so much. This was a great game on NES. Looks fantastic.
