Mighty Street fighter - CPC

[dodogildo]

it's interesting that nobody complained yet that it is the first game, to my knowledge, that requires 512KB RAM extentions in order to run....

We're so happy to have this game so nobody would complain if it'd require 16gb of RAM either

May be I'm wrong, but I can imagine this kind of game on a 512K cartridge, only require 64K RAM. So, what you are loading from the floppy disc to the RAM is more or less the same.

It probably can be done but then you are limiting your audience to those who can use cartridges with their CPC. That is just a small subset of users.

Of course, there is a balance between CPC and GX4000 players. My answer was rather that it is a common memory requirement related to the game storage.

Possible if the extra ram is being used like a read only storage which has been filled to save loading time. From it's current form it would need some functions re-writing to use rom paging vs the ram paging and perhaps some data re-arrangement and I would say best for the developers but only if they wished to do so.

What you suggest is certainly worthy of a programming example (not sure if I did one already that shows similar to this).

One of the 'killer apps' for 512KB

Does anybody know what is happening on itch.io ?

After receiving my RAM expansion from PulkoMandy today I thought of buying this game but looks like itch.io is down ?

SymbOS

SymbOS

Aahhh, of course... I forgot all about SymbOS as I've never used it properly - although perhaps that should be one of the many things on my "to-do" list for 2025.

itch.io is working again, apparantly it was down for +1 hour.

Itch.io is working for me.

There is another game, which many people may not know, ---  Download Chibi Aumas Episode 2

" ... if you have 256kb of RAM it uses it.
Last boss battle is enhanced for 256k systems with huge sprites and
prerendered animation! (but still plays the same on 64 and 128k!) ... "

Absolutely!!!!!

Really enjoyed playing this, reviewed it for Retro Gamer

Quick question regarding the RAM requirements:

Does this game require 576K in total or are 512K in total sufficient? I wonder if any of the expansions that provide C3 support and therefore use 64K for shadowing will work with the game or if they need to be switched into non-C3 mode.

btw: I guess C3 is not required, right?

I asked GGP this question and I was informed that Mighty Steel Fighters requires a total of 576KB of RAM (64KB base RAM + 512KB additional RAM).

I'm going back to the SF2 demo.

Bought it, but something made me laugh :

Ce jeu est une création originale indépendante pour célébrer l'univers des jeux rétro et n'a aucun lien avec des œuvres préexistantes.

Lovely. Is there a changelog for v1.1 by the way?
