Title: Maldita Castilla - Locomalito
Post by: erico on 2012-Nov-14
Most of you already know about it...

But for those who don´t, the golden Spanish age of games has passed and become a diamond age!
You can clearly see the talent on our Spanish users but check what Locomalito has for this december:

I´m extremelly excited for this release! It has been a while in the oven.

As they say on their site:
"It pays homage to classic arcade games from 1985-1987 like Ghost'n'Goblins, Tiger Road, Black Tiger, Shinobi, Rygar, Karnov, Trojan and many others... "

Lovely to see they respect references as Rygar, Black Tiger and Trojan, games I love and wish there would be more.
This is all really special for me. :)

It sure is not a mastercard solution! =D
As they plan to make sure it is going for free for those who enjoy that style. :-*
no mastercard could ever sponsor that!

They really deserve all my love.

The Spanish people will not turn into zombies, crises like that are always common around here hehe we are already used to it, with the exception that food never ends. ::)

It certainly looks good - loved both GnG games, although they were more than a little unfair. Hopefully the balance in this game will be geared more towards the player and less towards the machine (or machine owner ($) as the case was back then!).

@mental

I do play every game they release a lot, Hydora I played almost to the end and discovered lots of specials and secret weapons :), if you played nemesis and the outcomes back on the days...you know your ways hehe :P

@Ian

it is more balanced, no "gimme all your money now" hardcore arcade situation... but it is not an easy one.

It feels like forever since the demo was released, but it was just last year. It's great that it'll be out before this one ends! I'm very eager for it.

Superb demo. The retro feel works very well.

Very nice indeed, I hope the raster line effect is part of the renderer and not just for the video.

It's part of the game, in fact it emulates an old arcade machine screen with its defects and reflections. Check the demo.

I would prefer the post processing scanlines to be off so to enjoy the pure pixels.
But it works fine.

F1 enables the raster effect, F2 disables it.  ;)
