The ZX Spectrum news is coming in thick and fast as after previously announcing that Alley Cat was being demade for the ZX Spectrum, along comes Booty The Remake to further whet our appetites. Now unlike the previous game which didn't get a ZX Spectrum release, this one did as it was released in 1984 for the Amstrad, Commodore and yes even the Spectrum. What does make it all fresh though is the fact that this is going to be a remake of the original game with some rather nice improvements indeed.
As noted by Salvakantero who is remaking this fine game. Booty is a platform game with some strategy that takes place on a pirate ship, in which Jim, the cabin boy, must dodge pirates, rats and even the parrot of the captain to get a booty of 125 valuable objects scattered throughout the ship. In regards to the remake however, he is looking to improve not only the graphics as they were some what simple. But fixing sprite flicker, movement routines, speed improvements, as well as tweaking the mission difficulty and other improvements he might not have mentioned.
