Yet another Atari STe game #indev
As you can imagine, I was very excited to find out that Peter Jørgensen (Mr Manic Miner himself!) has begun the development of an enhanced update specifically for the Atari STe!! He's graciously given me the latest beta to play and it's already looking impressive with many improvements - more are planned. This version is so fast!!
1) The Blitter is utilised to push a brisk framerate!2) Expect many more colours on-screen at once.3) Usage of the extended palette.4) Remaster YMT music of the original ST scores by legend David Whittaker.5) Arcade samples played using the DMA hardware.
From what I've seen, heard, and played, this is a tremendous project. To take one of my favourite Atari ST racers, and improve upon it using the STe hardware, is going to be mind-blowing!! Good luck Peter - I cannot wait!!
Don't go just yet, check out these screenshots and... watch this space... :-)
