Yie Ar Kung fu was edited by Imagine in 1985, based on an arcade game by Konami.

You can see the video of this test of Yie Ar Kung Fu on Youtube by Xyphoe.

Here is a new HD video by Metr81 of the Amstrad CPC game Thunder Blade edited by US Gold in 1988.

The music of the Amstrad CPC game Teenage mutant hero turtles 2 has been found on the original support.

You can download a .DSK image with the music on CPCWiki.

And now a youtube video of the game by Xyphoe, music included.

Unless you are a hermit or someone very busy like me, I hope you are informed that the new version of R-Type by Easter Egg is available since the start of February.

César Nicolas Gonzales did update BB4CPC (v3) : correction of bugs and improvements.

Devilmarkus is working on a Prohibition remake in Java.

a new teaser video is available on the Easter egg's R-type remake site, also news musics and background pictures.

In 1986 Taito released the arcade game Bubble Bobble featuring the twin Bubble Dragons Bub and Bob. It was converted in 1987 on Amstrad CPC by Software Creations and distributed by Firebird. Alas this Amstrad CPC version had no music, nice sprites (or not), sound effects (my ears are still bleeding).

That's why César Nicolas Gonzales (author of the CPCE Amstrad CPC emulator) started a faithful remake of the arcade version which could work on an Amstrad CPC 464 (only 64 Ko) : BB4CPC. So this remake uses the full 16 colors of the Amstrad palette, music, nice sound effects, enhanced sprites, all the original levels and final boss. It was released a few days ago just after christmas 2011. Tom et Jerry did some work on the music.

In 2005 Tom et Jerry did port a Loriciels adventure game written on Philips VG5000 and Oric Atmos : Citadelle.

In 2011 he purchased a rare french computer the Exelvision EXL100. So he ported once again this game on this "new" computer, and backported enhancements to the Amstrad version Citadelle v1.1 in October 2011.

Sorry but the game is in french only.

In 1991, Barrie M. Eaton wrote an adventure game Moon Base III.

21 years later, his son couldnt find an adventure game on Android, so he ported this game, using Android features (speech synthesis for example). Moon Base III is available as a demo version (20% of the game), or in full version for 1,60 € on the Android market.

It's 18h06, you will have to wait still 2.332.400 seconds to be able to enjoy Easter Egg's new program : the R-Type remake for Amstrad CPC in colors !

This remake is done by Fano (code), TotO (graphics) et iXien(sound). You can read Fano's interview on Push'N'Pop.

So it's still 38.873 minutes, that's 647 hours or 27 days to wait... To help you in meantime, you can go on the R-Type remake's site to find screenshots, musics, the cover, the manual, and for course the preview video of the game on Youtube.

By the way, R-Type was cited on Boing Boing.

GameBase CPC v23 is available since the 19th December.

Xevious, a classic shoot them up is available on the Nintendo 3DS Eshop. The reviewer of this Xevious youtube video states that the 3D allow to easily recognize flying targets from ground targets. A new hit ?

Here is a new HD video by Metr81 of the spanish Amstrad CPC game Punk Star written by Genesis Soft in 1988.

One of the few games with vocal synthesis (at loading screen stating the title of the game). A platform game, which doesnt seem so easy.

Punk Star also exists on MSX and ZX Spectrum.
