Well...that news item was very...lovely ;)

About the game, well, not exactly my favourite. If I was a 10 year old kid I might enjoy it. Anyway, the Senileteam's next game, Age of the Beast, looks promising. I hope they will open-source it.

Thumbs up, Mr. Capehill. Looks like you're becoming an SDL-porting machine (judging from your avatar, too :P). The graphics look cool (they've been ripped from an SNK game, though), I'm curious to see how much playable it is, too. I remember Streets of Rage 2 on Megadrive/Genesis being at the time one of the best side scrolling beat 'em ups!
The faq on the team's site is funny, too:

"Q: Will there be a version for Neo Geo / Mac / Gamecube / Saturn / Linux / BeOS / FreeBSD / Unix / MSX / Vectrex / Atari 2600?
Who knows? "

Ironically it has been ported to an Os which has been left out from that list :)

And this I should add to my list of YAM taglines:
"Q: Why can't I get the game to run?
Because of your inability to work with computers. "

@Varthall, it's no secret that "I love SDL", it is a nice API.

Ps. I think about doing Gamecube port, I got the development hardware finally. I just don't know how to deal with that 60MB of data - phew.

EDIT: fixed some HTML stuff..

Cool, Beats of Rage is a great fighter.

@MrCapehill:

I like the game , i remeber playing Final Fight and double dragon? on the amiga and commadore 64 many years back.

also the music in this game is good,especially the music on stage 3-2.

Now all we need is a good joystick to use with OS4.

Nice game and port, thanks! Please make more ports from this type of games.

If you have only 256MB RAM or less, don't try running it from RAM:. I extracted all the files to the RAM Disk and then started it and it stops at loading the fonts. Then I copied it to the Hard Disk and deleted it from the RAM and it works fine now. Even currently it plays the title song at the background. The only little gimmick I saw while playing it, is that the Pointer doesn't disappear at fullscreen mode.

yep the pointer can be seen while playing in fullscreen but you can move it outside of the screen if you want to

also i noticed that there is not much graphical difference (if any?) when playing the game in 640x480 or the lower one or well atleast not in fullscreen anyway.

For some reason, the game loads extremely slow from the RAM disc compared to hard disc. Avoid it.

And the game runs always in 320x240 resolution internally. It only scales to 640*480 or 800*600 or whatever given.

@lovely:

Wow impressive news item

you hereby have the job of writing the news =)

@cape:

as said to you earlier, great job ....love the game... keep rocking

@nubechecorre

You don't need to unpack the .PAK file the executable uses it in that form (at least, this is how it's on the peecee, don't know for A1)

Well, first check the md5sum.

Unarc blabblab.zip ram: works here.

Sorry for the question but what is md5sum ?

Thanks

MD5Sum is a tool that calculates the checksum of the given file.

If you downloaded the archive mentioned in instructions, try

md5sum archive.zip

and compare the result. If it's the same, the file is the same and no errors happened during download.

a person is pretending to be me on ann.lu , http://www.ann.lu/comments2.cgi?view=1121599666&category=files&start=1&3 and i also noticed Amiga.org had the news but with an account not with my nick.

was the news item so good that people had to copy my news item or ?
