@Mikey_C

Thanks for the link...added to my post.

Nice

There are a couple of little glitches: it always crashes on exit for me, and saving seems a bit dodgy (the save points in-game take forever, and at one point it crashed and then re-loading the saved game crashed too).

Overall it seems to be working well!

Bought and little extra for dev effort.

Great news! Congratulations Daniel for getting this completed and up for sale!!

Always nice to see new Amiga software, and although games don't really fit the bill for me, I bought this one to support the cause.

The person involved in getting this on Amiga was Daniel Mußenner.
Unfortunately he will not get anything like the amount of money from this that his efforts warrant.
He does not get ANY of the money spent at the link to buy the Amiga version...

For this reason if you play or buy the Amiga version, then a PayPal donation to GoldenCode.eu would be a great thing to do.

@ddni So you are saying that the individual hosting the files for sale on itch.io as a developer and soliciting extra funds for the developer is not the developer of version for sale? That not constitute fraud in which case I will file a claim against Paypal for the extra money a contributed.

Thanks
Doug

Bought a copy and made a donation at the same time

Runs great on my X5000. Fast and rock solid!

Bought and donated to Daniel too after all it’s the only right thing to do!

Great Game!

Bought the Game and also donated some extra cash!

Made a small video of the gameplay on my X5000 (without the original gameplay audio)

@DStatny
It's no fraud, after all they can ask for as much money as they want and they don't say that it's being splitted or whatever.
It's just that, thanks to the wording of their texts, you may probably believe that you support me / Amiga ports by paying more or that they were of help with the ports, which is both not the case. That's what ddni wanted to point out (thanks!).

The thing is actually pretty simple:
- Who will benefit from sales, no matter how many / how much you pay? Answer: Pixwerk.
- Did Pixwerk help with the Amiga ports / partial rewrite necessary? Answer: Not at all (actually the PC version benefits from my first fixes / optimizations).
- Where to donate if you like the Amiga ports and desperately want to give away some money? Answer: goldencode.de

So, if you want to give them extra support, pay more when buying the game.
If you want to support me, go to my homepage.

@all
Glad that it apparently works fine on most systems!
And many thanks to those who donated (no matter if it reached me, it's the thought that counts in those cases)
And remember to follow the short instructions in the readme in case you run into trouble!

Oh, and in case somebody didn't read all update-mails on the game or forgot it:
network support had to be dropped because at some point they suddenly switched to a commerical black-box-network solution, so the online-gaming-menu will remain greyed out forever (however, it would have been another bonus anyway, since it was not on the table at all when I agreed to do the ports). I once asked for fresh menu-item graphics, but nothing came, so I simply greyed it out because the menu-item-numbers are inside the same graphics...
Anyway, the Amiga-port's download information clearly says "local multiplayer" too, so it shouldn't come as a surprise to anybody.

Cheers,
Daniel

@Daytona675x

Thanks for this excellent work.

On Sam440ep/M9, I have regular freezes. I tried 1366x768 and it crashes when loadind first level.

I then used 1280x720 16 Bits and it freezed when accessing sewers.

With this config, i get about 20-25 FPS.

On X1000, no freeze at all but ESC doesn't work in game, no way to exit the game.

I get about 100-125 FPS in game. A pity there is no VSync option to limit the framerate at 60Fps.

@K-L

I do not have any problems with stability or the ESC key.

A good limitation of fps is playing FullHD 32bit mode, then the number of frames on my X1000 drops from 130fps to 62fps (the same result is on X5000).

@mufa

Thanks for your report. I'll test again for the ESC key.

I get 100-125 FPS with 1920x1080 32 Bits on X1000/R7 250X( HD 7700).

Bought this and donated a meager amount to GC.
