If you want to improve on the original can you make it fun to actually play :P .

Well.. heh, I can add things like lives, continues or whatever, but the game is as it is. A challenge. I guess with continues, it'd be more fun as you can try to work it out more within one go, but meh.
Secondly, extra animations add to the fun factors for some people, and this remake will definitely support that. Last edited by Sonica; 02 August 2011 at 18:56. |

It's more about the dull enemy waves/Boss fights. Maybe a brand new SotB game would be the real challenge.

As for ordinary enemies, adding new enemies will do that some good. I'd rather not make a new beast game, as they kinda went in the wrong direction to me. |

Your pictures look fantastic, I love how you've kept them as close as you did to the original design.

What a nice project! I hope you manage to keep it close to the original. What's on your mind about the music? Do you think it'd be worthwhile to ask permission to use the remixed tracks found in the first Amiga Immortal CD? Or do you prefer an original score?

It'd be nice for someone to redo the tunes with modern... cleaness. I can't really discribe it, but I guess someone could make the music 'HD' aswell.

I see what you mean, but I guess it's not an easy task. You'd need someone really experienced, this music is classic... However I believe those remixes from 1999 are really good, and extremely faithful to the original (the contrary is usually the problem with remixes). They sound like "enhanced" versions (the Immortal ones) - maybe even "HD"!

Why not use 'Metallic Rain'. It's faithful to the original and from the same era

I am rubbish at art and programming but know that the artwork you have produced looks amazing and very faithful to the great game. Good luck with it all.

Good point Brookser, I might need someone to program an engine, I can try myself, but all those moves and animations... I dunno.
Anyway, for the heck of it, frame 1 of walk done: ![]() |

Best man for the job would almost certainly be Dj.Thunder who made the Thalion Lionheart remake.
http://www.b3dgs.com I imagine you might need to do him a favour in return (like update the Lionheart gfx for him?) |

Bah, I can't devote any more time to anything else... I guess I'll probably use the original track. I mean, there's nothing wrong with it is there?
