A ‘brawler’ is a beat-em up, so like Double Dragon, Golden Axe etc

But ‘Metro Siege’ as its called is more akin to Final Fight/Streets Of Rage going by the small screenshots.

Remains to be seen once the game is completed and published

Alarcity is handled by a different internal team, so it's unrelated to this project and it's development.
This new a500 brawler is coded by Alex Brown who made 'Worthy' which we've released last year.

Yup, it's more like Final Fight/Streets of Rage

Shatterhand · 27 August 2019, 17:20

Finally.

I begun learning to code for the Amiga because I wanted to do a proper beat'em up for OCS 1mb machines. I know it can handle it, is just that no one ever made it properly.

You guys can do it better than me.

FINALLY the Amiga may have a good beat'em up for it

EDIT: Just saw a video of it. Is that the AMIGA 512 KB VERSION?

Holy shit, it looks AWESOME!!!!

d4rk3lf · 27 August 2019, 17:36

OMG!
Finally!

Look fantastic, and it looks like the Capcom style of beat em up fighting.
Finally a grab move. Finally nice combo... finally everything!
And I will play it on my A500!

Man, can't wait to buy this, and when client releases me some money, I'd like to donate a little bit (where?).

nobody · 27 August 2019, 17:37

I have seen some screens and looks way better than anything you have seen on the Amiga. Using a truckload of colors

Yeah, looks great

Tsak · 27 August 2019, 17:44

@shatterhand: It's optimised for a500 with 512k chip and 512k other ram. I.e your standard/most common amiga 500 setup.

Retro-Nerd · 27 August 2019, 17:52

It looks amazingly good. Can't wait to test it.

Tigerskunk · 27 August 2019, 17:56

Also wanna see the video...

Amigajay · 27 August 2019, 18:05

Wow...fantastic looking! and on first impressions the all important collision detection looks good too, now if you can get it as good as Surf Ninjas you will have a winner on your hands!

Tigerskunk · 27 August 2019, 18:07

That looks seriously crazy amazing...
Kudos to all involved in this master piece!

Looking forward playing this drunk with some friends...
