Hyperborea runs on stock A1200 (the video was taken on stock A1200 too). kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sLiCdaxe1MW2faM.html

Hyperborea runs on stock apparently, but a stock A1200.

No on stock models, only on accelerated models.

So it is wipeout 68k edition. Sega Saturn and AtariJaguar have a 68k. More period correct than some FPGA.

@@ArneChristianRosenfeldt Saturn had a SH RISC

Totally agree 👍

This Aeon look nice but seems to run a bit choppy… is it 25 or 16fps ?

Hyperborea does look really nice. Its 1200 or above though, so wont work on a A500. Also , I don't think there is hit detection. I'm not sure what CPU overhead that will add but would suspect quite a bit.

@@litjellyfish currently it runs at 25/30 FPS depending on PAL or NTSC, but we're really close to getting it running at full 50/60 for AGA. There's also a version for OCS/ECS Amigas with 1 meg of total ram but my best guess is that one will have to stay at 25/30 FPS, however, it looks and runs quite smooth in person as opposed to in KZfaq footage.

Thanks very much @bubbanstix2536. It's still in early development so once we can focus more time on it expect improvements to all aspects of the game.

Pistorm and maybe the vampire accelerators will run this. Not sure how it will run on 060 or below. Will be interested to see though.

The 68k port does not need a ppc board, but from what I can tell it was developed using winuae making use of windows 3d hardware. What sort of real hardware opengl for 68k has this performance? no idea. maybe none.

Run on amiga emulator ok?

this 68k port requires PiStorm accelerators for the Amiga. It is much faster than 060 even at 100Mhz. Pistorm also emulates RTG graphics card at the same time.

@@Himegw PiStorm with Emu68 has a dumb framebuffer Broadcom Video Core Amiga 68K RTG drivers.

I loved it...it will be a AAA game...🍾🥂👍

Love the bullet hell stuff. Is it a lot of sprite multiplexing? Also is the gfx a homage or straight out of hybris/battle squadron? It looks so similar?

​​@@litjellyfishThe gfx artist Torben is the guy who drew Hybris and BattleSquadron. Because I quickly needed some baddies for engine tests, I just took two of BS for now. Just for testing, it's wip. The enemy bullets are no sprites (would be a no go for a Danmaku due to sprite hardware restrictions), but yes, the game involves heavy manual sprite multiplexing via copper.

@@Daytona675x Yes. Great guy. He helped me out with improving my gfx skills back in well... forver = 89-90 or so. Me and a friend worked on a prototype for innerplay same company I think he worked on that so I got some image from him to study. The game was a bit ghost and goblins fantasy style and as he had worked on Sword of Sodan, maybe he had this image from previous work, or it was just gfx directly from SOS, cant remember. I just remember that he was one of the guys I really looked up at then when I was like 16 years old or so :) So if I get it right is Torben doing new gfx for your game and you just use old BS placeholders? If so very cool to see him back in Amiga action. I totally lost track of his work after BS on Megadrive. Ah that makes sense, yeah I guess it was some placeholder art from it as I felt it was to familiar. Ah then its explains the AGA need. lots of small bobs. Reason I though it was sprites was I felt they flickered so I gussed it was like 8x2 (interlaced) = 16 sprites per row and with that it sounded resonable to be abli to multiplex houndreds of them So what are you targeting? Standard A1200 AGA? 32 / 64 colors plus sprites?

I agree but that would make it even more choppy most likely 😅 On a serious note. I would prefer to drop the parallax for what you mentioned. Smoother update and score overlay with bigger screen EDIT: I checked again and realized that the parallax is just repositioned sprites so maybe it’s the recording. For sure this should be possible to run if not 50fps but without issues 25fps

Develop your own game

@@Kenneth-cn8dx Try porcelain painting.

For stock AGA we're getting really close to Aeon's Legend running at full 50/60 FPS. (fingers crossed). The OCS version will likely have to stay at 25/30 FPS, but it looks and plays much smoother in person than footage in a KZfaq video. It's still in early development. Expect improvements all around once we can focus more time on it, but it will largely have to wait until we finish the current DaemonClaw builds, then Metro Siege. Some development for Aeon's Legend will continue in the meantime, but slowly.

@@bitbeamcannon2468 Metro Sieeeeeeege 🤩❤🍔🌇🎉🎺✅

Without checking them out yourself don't trust how they look in real life. Many games look choppy on YT some of it is 50>60 Hz conversions some is analog to digital issues the list goes on... Games that IRL are smooth as silk are shown as choppy trash sometimes.

Hyperborea runs at 50 fps (almost always).

Actually there was an official port of Wipeout for PPC Amigas, but apparently the one on this video is a port for 68k.

@@juhanipolvi4729040 or 060? And how the heck aren’t there frame drops during the stacked transparent sprites? (Perhaps just additive transparency, but still!)

Probably AGA + 060 requirements magic. Or even more requirements

Pistorm32 could do wipeout easily Vampire v4 and other Vampire could also do if used with Maggie and the SAGA chipset

Yes I'm fine. Thanks for asking. There's nothing better than starting the year with a video of new games, right? and tomorrow the survey and next week's video are ready! 😁🍾🥂

Yes. It is a port (demo) of the SNES game EDF

And that's not even the latest video of Hyperborea ;)

Its always tricky with the Amiga when it comes to sound. It can sample really well but it has only 4 sound channels. Some devs get it right, some don't. Terryble Knight seems to be inspired by Capcom's Ghost n Goblins/Ghouls n Ghosts.
