In 1988 Ocean Software ( Imagine Label ) released a fine beat 'em up for the Amstrad CPC, C64 and ZX Spectrum. It was a great title that had either single player or two player gameplay with you playing as street fighters known only as Renegade in a revenge against a kingpin named "Mr. Big" for murdering their brother. Well if you remember this fine game from the 80's you'll be pleased to know that if you have an Amstrad CPC, you can play the newest of releases called 'Renegade Reloaded'; A new CPC version of the game which now features scrolling by Geco!
Here is what was said via the cpcwiki forums "New features has been added to the best Renegade version, which I think was even better than the Arcade version. Scrolling has been added based on the Enterprise version, just I could not use the 4 pixel hardware scrolling, therefore the game is a bit slower during scrolling, but runs on the same speed if there is no screen scrolling. Big thanks to TotO for the great new graphics for added movements and for the idea to implement it, and for great help testing the Enterprise version few years ago, and now the CPC version"
Worth checking out. Before Double Dragon there was Renegade. I have enjoyed the Kunio series over the years and still buy the new games that come out. I really enjoyed the NES version of Renegade and beat all 3 difficulty levels back in the day. The arcade version is quite difficult. This looks decent and worth my time. I'll give it a whirl.
ReplyDeleteThose new moves being running and running attacks! This is ace.
ReplyDeleteThis is really great work. I don't remember if i was playing double dragon before or later, both games are from 87. The only one i remember to play before this one is kung fu master, sure that's not exactly the same kind of game.
ReplyDeleteAmazing update for a tough game!

ReplyDeleteTarget Renegade was one of my favorites on CPC, will definitely try this one.
ReplyDeletethis is great
ReplyDeleteFantastic
ReplyDeleteI think that's the plot of Target Renegade, not renegade. The murder of the brother happens in Target renegade. First renegade is about rescuing a woman(she seemsto be the bride of the character)
ReplyDeleteLate comment, the plot about avenging brother is Target'srenegade plot. Renegade is about rescuing a girlfriend.
