Thanks for the heads up! I've just restored the one from July which was working. You'd miss the improved final boss graphics and some minor stuff, but it works! :)

Thanks for that! Do you have any ETA on getting the final build for the CD32? Some streamers are itching for streaming and promoting the masterpiece :D

Working on it, please try the one on the link below.

This version asks for FastRAM just to make sure (which means adding some of it on emulator or the TF330/equivalent expansion on real hardware). Thanks!

As Bill and Quantic both tried it on CD32 I can't confirm it working but QuanticCD32 at least uses no expansion, only a stock CD32 - I can only forward builds that run on native configurations

I understand, I just uploaded a new one that should work on stock like always.
Reading the build log, accounted memory total: 1868284, while the one from July (that also worked) was 1890526 - translation: both fit under 2MB.

Great stuff - thanks for providing a new build so swiftly Dante!
I'll get back to you and let you know if it worked

I burned the game to CD and it loads perfectly on a CD32 with TF330. So far I've only played a little of the first level but all seems well, so far. Thank you for going to such great effort to bring this game to CD32.

Can I ask, which font was used for the text on the back cover of the CD insert?

Dante Retro Dev27 days ago

Thanks for reporting that it works!

The font is Schwere Fraktur Pro, if I recall correctly.
