Another Commodore 64 game released this week ( no it's not Amiga :p ) , as we've been told that Drmortalwombat has made available the super speedy bi-directional shooter of ' Portal Buster '. A game in which the developer was noted as saying "this game is perhaps too fast for some of the armchair scroller fans, but what do I care, I need speed". To coincide with this news, we've got some extra info about the game as well as a gameplay video from Saberman.
And here's the extra info! "To sweeten the deal, you get infinite continues, nine levels of weapon power-up, built-in trainer modes, portals and respawn points. So battle your way through a gigantic 32k pixel-wide level to find and destroy the end boss. You need to pick up fuel barrels to keep your spaceship afloat. If you activate both sides of a colour-coded portal, you can reap the benefits of hyperspace and travel instantaneously. Doors require buttons to be pressed".

What a nice surprise! A super fast shooter with great sound and graphics maybe a little inspired by Manfred Trenz Enforcer,but a good game after all! It's short and difficult but it's really engaging and worth playing!

ReplyDeleteCool, but sprite detection seems off (01:25 why did ship died?). That's not positive for the fast pace it has..
ReplyDeleteRunning out of fuel, take a look at the gauge and the flashing cockpit light
DeleteNice going Doc. this IS quick - I think that is a screen-size/object issue. It appears quick; however, the sprite size really plays into that. Just like Uridium and a many other games.
