Cimmerian - Graphically impressive 'Barbarian' coming to the Sega Master System and Mega Drive


I have decided to save the best till last, as during our trip through Twitter we've come across what looks to be a graphically impressive "pseudo" port of the famous Barbarian, which originally appeared on many different systems including the Amiga, Amstrad CPC, C64, ZX Spectrum and  Atari ST. Titled as 'Cimmerian' and developed by Ichigobankai, with its first showing for the SMSPower! Competition in 2016. This updated development looks better than ever with stunning high quality detail, which will not only be coming to the Sega Master System but also the Sega Mega Drive too!




If you don't remember the game, you control a Barbarian in a single screen combat scenario and must use sword chopping movements to put your opponent to the ground, with or without his head. As for the development of Cimmerian, it will include a story and vs mode, multiple arenas, high quality updated graphics, Palette effects, a hall of fame and much much more!
