Had a go at this after reading about it on your site earlier today Neil...it's really good fun and quite impressive for a Spectrum game.

Man, here is AMIGA board.
So I will show testing this new game on Amiga.



At least we cannot play this superb game on plain CD32.

Asp or ZX-Live would be required for 68k Amiga.

You can barely see the player and the enemies. Looks pretty unplayable as far as I'm concerned.

Are you blind!? Looks decent enough to me, pity the Amiga cant get more homebrew of this level.

Will definitely fire up my +2 this weekend to play this. In a novel twist I'll reserve judgement until I actually play it

To be honest the standard of modern Speccy and C64 games is frankly miles ahead of the standard of modern Amiga releases. There's some extremely impressive stuff being created, and a larger quantity too.

It works and plays absolutely beautiful in DidntXSpectrum on Xbox1.

Exactly, I can't wait for Hyperion to be finished and released on C64.

Come on, Neil. I've been two hours trying to make it run. You forgot to say that IT NEEDS an Spectrum 128 emulation !! Not a problem to run it, but you should have told.

How did I forget

I don't have a 128k ZX Spectrum to be able to test it on, just loaded it up in my emulator and run it. I'll add that note to the article now

- Done

It is when reading these threads that I realize how much I have missed by being out of the Amiga woods for so long. I never knew or thought there were Spectrum emulators on the Amiga!

Thanks ニッタミツアキ! I can't wait to test them on the silicon creatures!
