Hello!
I just uploaded to my website Roswell, a game for the Amstrad PCW, that uses my GUI Samaruc (but I don't know why!). :)
Warning: It's not intended to be the best game for the Amstrad PCW! 8) 8)
It's a preview edition, because I don't have time (and skills?) to design more levels for it. ;D
But hey...! It's here, at last!

Looks nice and promising.
Thank you for the effort! :)
Very cool, I already liked the preview in 2013 a lot!

IMHO this game has quite a nice feeling on the PCW. I am impressed, that you finished it now. Are you going to make another video of the final version?
May we see a SymbOS port ? :laugh:
Why should we?

Good idea! ;)
Looks very cute :)
By the way, I love that PCW font... Is that available anywhere in a modern format? I'd like to maybe use it as a terminal font!
Hey! Finally Roswell has seen the light of day! Congratulations.
A bit short, but really nice. I especially liked the graphics: if I ever make a killer robot, it will be like the ones of this game. :P

It's the Samaruc font, it's not the PCW standard one.
I designed this font with a Basic program written by me, too many years ago. :laugh:
But I can send to you the 2048 bytes file if you like it! 8)

Ah, please do! Although I don't know what I could do with it - maybe if someone told me how to load it in a PCW emulator so I can grab a screen in order to pass it onto Fontmaker or something... It's really lovely!!!
Any chance I could have it too? I'd love to convert it to an CPC font for use in my cart menus.
Good idea. It's a very good font for front-ends...
Ok!
Here are two files.
One is a png image file, and the other one is a raw 2048 bytes binary file. :)
If you need some other type of file, please, ask me and I will see what I can do. ;)
For personal use only, please - not commercial use! :P
PD: In the image, there are two vertical pixels for one on the PCW screen. You can resize the image to the 1/2 current height, to obtain a 1:1 pixel.
Ahhh how nice :) I'll see what I can do and post the results (if any :D )
