SOUL OF THE BEAST

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone !

 

I'm happy to say my first Atari 2600 game SOUL OF THE BEAST inspired by the 1989 Amiga classic, is done !

 

It features more than 15 unique enemy types, variants, and items. Non-linear level design, in a standard 4K NTSC ROM.

 

I'm hoping to move forward with a cart release and a PAL version.

https://aeriform.itch.io/beast I hope you check it out !

This is gorgeous, thanks for sharing it!  I bet you could get some volunteers for adding sounds and fine-tuning the sprite physics / gameplay with this strong proof of concept.  I have my boxed copies of BEAST 1-3 for Amiga sitting in my bookcase, here - so this is a treat!  If only my Amiga still worked... ?

Yeah just watched the entire zph awards on yt.  Seriously, congrats on the win!  Grew up on Atari consoles then to Commodore ones, SOTB series was one of my favorites.  I remember when you first started the adaption years ago and thought, wow, he has his work cut out for him!  Turned out great even as a 4k game...

I have a surprise for everyone who purchased Soul of the Beast.  I love the artwork, so I decided to print 10" x 14" posters for the game, and they just arrived today!

These will be included free with the game.  :)

I've started a thread to keep everyone updated on the production of all the new pre-order games, including Soul of the Beast.  I'm also posting photos as items arrive, such as the boxes, manuals, labels, posters, and other items once I've received them!  

 

 

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!
