I didn't realise Any Clitheroe left Team17 in 2012! Looks like he's still an ingenious programmer though, look at this World of Goo type game on Android that they've produced!

Looks like it's free to play! How do they make any money? Micro-transaction on new fabric creatures?

@Thread

I really hope someone offers him the chance to play Alien Breed 3D 2 on a Vampire accelerated Amiga to show him that we can now play his game at the speed he intended!

@BigD

If AB3D would have been written in C originally (except the inner loops, of course)...who knows what kind of evolution it might have gone through?

I always thought it must have been 68k assembler! I guess that would explain why it was slow even on a 060!

It is. The source was released, for AB3DII, IIRC on an AF magazine. But now I can't find it. Can't see it on Aminet. Cant find it on my HD! Conspiracy!

@BigD

It was written in ASM, sorry about my unclear first mail. If it would have been written in C, and released as open source, it would have been flying on any RTG system I think.

Agreed, it's a great game when given the horsepower.
I'm sure that he has seen it 👍🏻
It has been running very smoothly on other emulators for years

@Mr_Capehill

That's it. They forgot the B. I wonder if anyone got it to compile? Or made RTG versions? Taking another look it looks like they used AROS to compile it. But it still would have been useful to throw a read me in there along with all the other files that make no sense or are all personalised in their strange ways.
