While many of you are still probably playing the latest release of Sprite Invaders which was released for the C64 just recently, there's another game that might be worth keeping an eye on, and that's Carleton Handley's upcoming Action Platformer of Runn 'N Gunn. Yes indeed this game mentioned to us previously by Per Ola and Saberman, is a run n gun platformer that looks to feature great background detail, smooth scrolling and rather nice sprite animation.
The original game preview back in October of last year, was created when Saul Cross provided a lovely map as a challenge to himself to create a nice scroller of which you could view in a previous article we did on Indie Retro News. This latest video however which can also be viewed (here) shows how far the game has come, as now it has smooth animation, a higher quality designed level, combat and more enemies! Certainly a game we can't wait to play as the creator has said before "he hopes to turn it into a kind of Metroidvania, complete with enemies, and interesting levels".
