New game: Tenebra!

[Haplo]

Hi all,

I'm pleased to announce my new Amstrad CPC game, Tenebra: https://h4plo.itch.io/tenebra

Tenebra is an atmospheric puzzle game with rogue-like elements. Guide the hapless protagonist to the exit, but also keep in mind that he is afraid of darkness and refuses to walk in the dark areas.

Move torches around, push lights on rails, find keys to doors, light up cold braziers, pass through archways that collapse behind you, find oil barrels to make your torches brighter, squeeze through cracks in broken walls, fix broken rails with a hammer, illuminate the sensors to open the exits... do whatever it takes to get out of there!

The game is playable on emulators and real CPCs.









Let me know what you think!

From the screens-really unique. Gonna check it out!

Nice and clever puzzle game. I like it!

[260Z]

Like the sound of this. Definitely going to give it a go. 

[Carnivius]

Cheers for making it for CPC as well. I already liked it on C64 and Spectrum so it's nice to see it on my fave 8-bit as well.

Oh nice, it comes on cdt, dsk and cpr format all in the zip.

Love this game... Already played through on my C64 but I will give it a go in CPC for sure  

Any news on Tenebra 2 in CPC ?

(just kiddin ...   )

[Prodatron]

I am a huge fan of Tenebra! Already completed this on the C64 and looking forward to re-completing on the CPC!

Looks terrific! Downloaded and playing

[Haplo]

Thanks everyone, and I'm glad you have enjoyed the game!

I will also port Tenebra 2 at some time in the future. For now I need a break from Tenebra. Too much Tenebra recently.

Played through to the end. greatly enjoyed it.

Played through today. Really nice. 

I would have one wish for Tenebra 2: Would it be possible to remember the flicker-setting between levels? It was quite annoying that it started to flicker again, especially since the F key is not always recognised and I often ended with the dark settings, so I had to try over and over again until I ended up with the bright settings. 

[Haplo]

Thanks for the suggestion, I had not thought about this. Will keep it in mind when porting Tenebra 2.

Really impressive! Congratulations!

Finally got our CPC up and running! Here's Tenebra running on the real thing:





It is always more fun on the real thing, of course.

Thanks Haplo. 

What is the PCB in the white box doing in your picture?

[SkulleateR]

Thanks Haplo.

What is the PCB in the white box doing in your picture?

Looks Like a GBS 8200 Video Konverter   

[Haplo]

Yes, it is GBS8200+GBSControl. It allows us to experience the CPC in its full 26-colour glory on a normal TV.
That's why it took us so long to set the CPC up actually.
