AGameAWeek Gold - RetroRaider II
Blog
12th July 2013
In yet another example of AGameAWeek Gold plucking out examples of games I'm currently reworking, here's a great little blast from the past!
AGameAWeek Gold is our occasional dip into the pool of previously released games, taking a look at what I've previously released on this day in history. -=-=- 2010 - RetroRaiderIIJoin Lara as she roams around the various levels, in her never ending quest to find a series of curiously identical crosses. A simple cross between Pitfall's stylings, and ... well, Tomb Raider! It's a Demake, and it's a fairly fun one, too. If there's one specific thing that I'm disappointed at, about RetroRaider II, it's that the style of the background isn't quite chunky enough. I mean, they kinda fit, but there's a massive difference between the look of Lara, and the style of those trees. It's a bit... wrong.. Hopefully I can fix that in the upcoming sequel. It's already a lot more chunkier! Either way, the game's perfectly playable, and runs smoothly in nice big high resolutions, unlike the original, which struggled to cope with the old-fashioned image scaling I'd badly coded! You can Download RetroRaiderII here for Windows, Linux or Mac. And then, in a just few weeks time, there'll be a nice sequel ready for launch Views 62, Upvotes 17
