Mighty Street fighter by AmstradGGP v1.1 is available for Amstrad CPC

-

Mighty Street Fighter v1.1 by AmstradGGP is available for Amstrad CPC, it features :

  • Implementation of a 2-speed Turbo mode that can be combined with all current difficulty levels
  • Simplification of the buttons (controllers) by removing the charge function. From now on, all special moves are performed diagonally down, right, or left, depending on the direction of the NPC. This makes combat more dynamic
  • Speeded up the selection cursor in the menu
  • Offset of the difficulty indicator stick figure because it was difficult to see on some CRT screens
  • Revision of Vlad's spinning special move
  • Reed, Vlad, Bud may have some non-blocking visual issues on an exceptional basis. A review will come later.
  • All characters enlarged by +/-10%
  • Changed Vlad's clothing colors from Red to Blue
  • The scenery has been reworked, limiting the use of hatching. The combat zone has been brightened and redone. The sky is now based on the same pattern for all levels
