This is an updated version of BATMAN from ocean keeping all the feeling of the original but adding updated gfx and fx.

Hello darkevildemon!

I saw your post at Remakes.org and just LOVED the screenie, though I was never a huge fan of the original. This one, however, I'm gonna play for sure!

If you need to use the CPCWiki or its forum for any purpose related to this project feel free to ask mate...

Btw, I just had an idea - perhaps I should create a new "Dev" user class for the forum... so if anyone wants his user label to switch to "Developer" do let me know, I won't be doing it on my own initiative out of fear I might forget someone...

Congrats again, please do keep going
Gryzor

Any news about this remake?

On retroremakes.com he said:

Hi everybody,

I come with bad news, the project is aborted.

i've tried to remotivate the team but there is a lack of free time and real life brings some of us to reality. That's life but i want to thank them because without their motivation at the beginning i wouldn't be able to finish all the gfx

it was a really nice project, here is a link where you can download the demo of the old game

So is this the end of two years of work ?

Not really, all the gfx are done, there is a nice tune and i think there is a free 3d iso editor available by this site

What about the original level editor ?

Yes,the original editor makes a very nice work, but the coder hasn't free time anymore to update it and it doesn't work on vista or 7 64 bits. And i think that nowadays we could add some nice fx. And how to add a frontend ? intro/ending sequence?


What is needed then ?

Well, first thing is to create a MOTIVATED team with talented peoples (coding, music, sounds,...) having free time to work with me
I could make some adjustment on the gfx if needed, and add an intro/ending/ingame sequences, create new things to improve the look, but i am quite unable to code anything and i don't know if i could use the editor.
If a talented coder wish to create everything from the beginning with a lot of new fx, i am ready to work hand to hand with him.

Ok, what else ?

CONTACT ME BY MP, IF YOU LOVED THIS GAME AND WANT TO BRING IT BACK TO LIFE

Also, on his site:

hi everybodies, a little message to tell you a bad news,i've decided to leave the project in accord with the coder because nothing moves since monthes and the team doesn't seem motivated anymore to do anything. But the good news is that i leave with all my gfx and the great tune from infamous. So i will search in the retro gamers forums some coders who'd like to mount a new team and remake the original gamewith me or at least someone who'd like to work on a 3d iso editor and redisgn the rooms using all my gfxpack quite finished

For now i must finish the goonies remake started in june 2009. All gfx are done, all the levels are playable and a demo is available at this adress: www.thegoonies.zxq.net Let's have a look and don't hesitate to give your opinion

Added some screenshots for the goonies remake and a link to the DEMO
Added link to GORDIAN TOMB ... yes, the game is finished ))))))

So...

[cpc4eva]

this will be a cpc remake playable on cpc emulator?


or a pc remake ?

[MacDeath]

seems to be a remake on PC, as was done with Head over Heels.

Then the question : why not simply mod the existing Head over Heels remake...?

After all the originals shared almost the same engine already at the time.

this will be a cpc remake playable on cpc emulator?
