Uto has written a tutorial to write adventure games with DAAD. This tutorial has been translated in french by Hugo Labrande who is the author of the game l'Ile de Tristam actually in english but soon with a french version.

Head over Heels is a classic game released in 1987 by Ocean Software and written by Jon Ritman and Bernie Drummond. A remake was written in 2003 by Tomaz Kac (without IP rights) and freely available on Retrospec.

This remake is also on Steam by Piko Interactive which bought the IP rights. There is a longplay of this remake on Youtube.

And now there is another remake available on Nintendo Switch (eShop), which you can discover in a video.

Reading three recent tweets by CheapeeSoft :

• entire map of the game
• announcement
• scrolling showed

they are working on a WIP windows and android version of the spanish game Las Tres Luces de Glaurung. You can see a video of the original Amstrad CPC game par Jgonza.

Il est à noter qu'il y a déjà un remake de Las Tres Luces de Glaurung par M.A. Software (Miguel Ángel Jiménez Santana). Dont hesitate to see all the games he wrote as there are other remakes.

I am late writing this, but CheapeeSoft Games has released its windows (32/64) remake of Fernando Martin Basket Master : Retro Basket Master.

A few days ago Amstrad CPC World did post a video about an Amstrad CPC game in 3D isometric : Sepulcri, which I didnt know. Then I found on his channel a compilation of many 3D isometric games for Amstrad CPC (January 2019), a lot of them that I never knew !

P.S. : graphics in Sepulcri are done by Jill Lawson, use the link to the what she did, it's beautiful.

Michael Wessel has released for the CPCRetroDev 2021 contest a game in basic 1.0 : The Wrath of the MCPC.

He just released a new version with joystick support and compatible with LambdaSpeak vocal synthesis which you get with his sound cards : LambdaSpeak 1.95, LambdaSpeak III and LambdaSpeak FutureSoft Edition (LS-FS). You can see a video of the vocal synthesis on Youtube.

A Hundred more issues of AA50 by DarkSteph are being shipped, and a little bit before christmas you will be able to put a USB key with a free PDF of Amstrad Action 50 in front of your Xmas tree. The quality of impression of the paper issue is great, I have mine at least.

Reidrac (Juan Martinez) is actually working on two projects : a RPG (Ultima like) and Hyperdrive which is a shoot them up, which reminds me of of the excellent Light Force.

You can check Reidrac's Twitter for more informations too.

I invite you to list the last posts of Reidrac's blog about several subjects including to create the games with cartridges in mind, thanks to the Plus2CPC, upcoming Play2CPC, DES and Dandanator.

After the Plus2CPC by Abalore (see on CPCWiki), here is the Play2CPC which is a mix between the Plus2CPC by Abalore (adding a cartridge for all CPC even CPC+ on expansion port) and the PlayCity. The Play2CPC adds three AY channels and one noise generator (6 channels and 2 noise generators for the PlayCity) and the possibility to modify the content of the pseudo cartridge. For more informations, I invite you to read CPCWiki (link above).

CheapeeSoft Games has announced an android remake of Bomb Jack : Jack Jagger Bomb free.
