Edge Grinder – new Shoot'em'up (http://www.octoate.de/wp/2011/09/19/edge-grinder-new-shootemup/)
19 September 2011, 7:17 pmEdge Grinder, a Shoot'em Up in the spirit of R-Type, was released some days ago. It was programmed for "Format War", which main idea is to convert C64 games to the platform of the programmers choice. Well, Paul Kooistra, who already brought such great games like Sub Hunter (http://www.octoate.de/wp/2011/02/15/sub-hunter/), Star Sabre (http://www.octoate.de/wp/2009/03/07/star-sabre-128k/) and Dead on time (http://www.octoate.de/wp/2010/02/27/dead-on-time/) to the CPC, did it and converted Edge Grinder to the CPC. You can read more about the story of the game, get the source code and of course download it on its Format War page (http://formatwar.net/view_article.php?art=collabortition_1). I also added a download to this posting.
