I am coding a Java-Remake of the CPC-game "Prohibition".
It can be embedded into websites later.
The game is controlled by mouse! So no keyboard needed ;)
It's absolutely unfinished but here's a teasing screenshot:
Instead of the well known bandits in the windows, well, you could take some faces of let's say... well known guys and gals ;-) :o 8)
Sure that would be very interesting...
Important to know who would be the guy with the girl which is taken hostage...
What was your bra-size TFM? ;)
Well game progress is ~70% now...
Missing many bad guys and the highscores...

Forget it! I will not play that girl!!!

Wow! One of my faves... thanks so much for this!
Btw, won't mouse control make it much easier? Maybe you should tweak the difficulty?
Any plans on replacing graphics and sound with more modern versions? I mean higher resolution and more colors and such?
Or is it "just" to be a CPC game still?

It's still very hard ;)
No, I don't plan other gfx conversions...
If you prefer nicier GFX, play "Empire City 1931" for mame
Added kidnapper routine:

Ah, I had totally forgotten this little gem. Cool, copying it to my mame cab this evening!

(I dont want to promise too much, it's still a very early progress, and I also need better screen/sprites handling)
Keys:
M - Toggle music
F - Toggle screen filtering (suggested by Gryzor)
W - Toggle accuracy (Will add a few more game modes: Easy, Medium, Hard)
Space - Hide
The game is controlled with your mouse.
Left mousebutton: Shoot
Right mousebutton: Hide (same as space key)
Mouse movement: Aim @ targets and scroll through the area

Mouse support on CPC would be good! Anybody? Fano? Tastefulmrship? Nilquader?
Added score system. (When the game is finished, the scores will be submitted to my website!)
You can enter your name using cursor keys and space key.

Also added a options menu. It's shown when you begin the game or during gameplay when you press "O"

Maybe you could do a version with plus-colours... ;-)

Maybe ON a real CPC and WITH mouse support ;D Wished I had the time to care about it.

Tsk!
:D
??? Tsaziki? :o
Added the bonus-scene:
After killing 45 opponents, in the 128k version you enter a bonus scene and have to kill 4 bosses!
[attach=2]
After successfully killing them, your "hide" points are turned to $ollars ;)

Can we have a cheat version? :)
Interesting:
Amstrad CPC: (64k version)
Prohibition - Amstrad CPC (Infogrames, 1987) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNklYh5LUJU#)
Atari ST:
Prohibition - Atari St (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBSviroF0ok#)
Well, but the mouse makes all the difference...
EmpireCity 1931: The original game.
From 1:20, you see the night stage. (prohibition look like)
