O don't meet this game... but bitmap brothers always did a very good work whit graphics... Amiga really was awesome, I hope ACA500 comes to the market nearly, too much for A600 and 2000 but for 500  :( ?¿.

If you have interest in 1200 in Amiga.EU it's a Deutsh Shop you can shop an Amiga 1200 new, and not it's too much expensive.

PS: If you want guys yesterday send me a recopilation of Amiga x32 games, the menus are in Spanish (it's the same like WinUAE but all configured, you put the game of the manu and play), if anyone want comment me and I put in offtopic or for MP.

Regards Guys and Back to the Roots  :D :D

Sounds very cool. I'm sure you could have some locale.txt file that we could edit communally to have the menu multi-language :D

Chaos had marvelous in game dynamic music made by Richard Joseph (I love his work, really sad he is gone). It would kick in diferent patterns depending on level position.
I thought to try that out on GLB some time ago, but I´m afraid it would have to be done on the playsound instead of playmusic.

Well, I guess we all know by now.

No 3d, but that is not good either, they are just repacking the same thing destroying the art with post effects and transparencies.
No new levels, no extended playarea, just the bogstandard thing.

Crap...they would do better if it was 3d :P

And now there is a shadow of the beast coming to ps4 that looks like the generic hack and slash 3d thingy
