 Welcome back guys welcome back to classic replay I had so much fun doing the Amstrad top 40 homebrew games a few weeks back and got lots of positive feedback that I thought I'll do another and maybe continue it each week month and I definitely want to do this for the speckey and 64 as well so the first bit of news is more of an update hopefully you've heard of fire tire well this is its fourth update now that's awesome now this is a massive game changer of an update watching the video how the car slides across the road not anymore it now comes and features the option to have a mobile camera instead of a static cam out goes the 180 mile per hour limit you can now travel like a bat out of hell at 250 miles per hour you can now practice each track to your heart's content there was no other option before you had to race the entire Grand Prix I'm still completely rubbish at it but with these new updates I'm not gonna lie to you this for me is now a 10 out of 10 game ladies and gentlemen start your engines and bring on version 5 did anybody play Tetris back in the 80s on the Amstrad CPC it was absolutely useless it was a massive game and they completely botched it many Tetris games have come in its name but nothing filled the gap until now that is oh my god look at this it's the Gameboy and it'll run on a 128k CPC 464 and 6128 and the Amstrad Plus model as well and it's got the theme tune as well brilliant the color palettes can be changed and the Amstrad Plus model allows you to play in the original green screen now if only we could get Super Mario Metroid and Kirby running on the Amstrad what an absolute thing of beauty on the Amstrad CPC now for another bombshell come on who doesn't love a great tower defense game this is personally in my humble opinion the best of its type on the Amstrad CPC it's a new game only recently released and it runs on every single model of Amstrad CPC including the plus the music as you can hear is a thing of beauty the graphics are clear precise and do their job and if you play this on original hardware there's a hidden message I've had this for about a week now and of that week I put about 10 or 20 hours into this which basically translates to I've had lots of late nights staying up playing this it's a wonderful game it's one of the best on the Amstrad CPC and the music has to be listened to to really appreciate the hard work that's gone into this this is another excellent game from ego tripped but sadly what we have here is ego trips last game on the Amstrad CPC so sad in one sense but happy in another as the game is absolutely fantastic as you can hear in the background there the soundtrack is fabulous naturally you could draw comparisons to the original Game Boy version of Zelda and like the original prelude to chaos you'll have to avoid enemies talk with folk find jewels move crates and solve ever increasing more difficult puzzles the game sadly doesn't feature the Amstrad 16 color mode zero but what we do get is lots of detail and fantastic gameplay this is a 2021 release so be sure to pick it up I caramba what a nice little surprise quite impressed with the graphics mode zero and the color choice lovely smooth animation it's not going to win any awards for pushing the Amstrad near its limits and each new screen presents its own challenge there's a good variety of enemy as you push further to the right of the screen and although there's not much in the way of spot effects the music is bloody brilliant the game first saw release on the ZX spectrum I think in 2018 or 19 so basically what we have here is a specky port with a splash of color and minus the attribute clash I like it so far so definitely pick this one up I was able to download this one from CPC Power so head there now another new game on the Amstrad this one took me by surprise I love shoot them ups especially in the style of thrust this looks kind of basic but trust me it's anything but you can actually buy this one cassette for around 499 your mission is to rescue the universe and be home back in time for tea you do this by visiting lots of different planets and rescue in the cosmonauts that strangely they're all dotted around in the weirdest of places you'll need to pick up items as well and take out the enemy it's available on the Commodore 64 as well and I have to say really difficult to put down so with all that in mind it basically adds up to a really interesting puzzle like shooter wow is all I can say I had this as a kid I mean the game mechanics are basic by 2021 standards but it's really interesting to see this on the Amstrad CPC I've seen better choices in the color palette department but even today it's still a good little challenge don't get me wrong there's nothing like experience in this on the original handheld and I'll be surprised if anybody remembers this game but for me it does bring back lots of memories what's good as well is the sound is quite authentic and trust me although this looks easy it's one of the hardest game and watch games ever I guess this is not everyone's cup of tea I'm kind of hoping you might enjoy it in fact let me know your favorite game and watch game but this is a lovely piece of history played out on the Amstrad CPC I feel like nobody covers the old traditional adventure games anymore but this one is a cross-platform effort and it came out for the Amstrad CPC as well ofs it features all the standard abbreviations as you did as you'd expect so alpha look X or EX for examine I for inventory it's proper old-school it takes me right back I liked a game hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy and this has a similar sense of humor so if you like adventure games in this early style give this one a go because it's really funny oh and I nearly forgot there's four parts and this game almost never saw the light of day so think about that and give it a good download and a good play next up is Dr. Rowland I've never heard of this one it's got a bit of a Tetris feel about it I'm loving the Nintendo sprites and mode zero Amstrad graphics apparently this was originally created for the CPC retro dev in 2020 but was banned so there's lots of viruses about you've got to match four colors but that's easier said than done as you can see I'm bloody struggling and this is only the first level what's bloody good about this as well is it's a two-player game naturally a sign of the times there's a lot of games that are coming out that are inspired heavily by the coronavirus COVID-19 so expect a sequel Dr. Rowland gets a booster jab great news as well this one runs on the C4 CPC and the M4 and all that remains to say is thank you John Loeber Ritz the striker Ritz the striker nice little addition there look how beautiful that loading screen is that is mode zero 16 color at its best it's not often the game comes along and impresses the socks off me but listen to this and if that's not good enough have a load of this and get this it's another lobo game I can't spend too much time playing this but it's absolutely brilliant the controls and the animation on speed of the dog are so precise I haven't experienced anything like this control-wise since manic minor I'm not sure what I was expecting but I'm definitely massively pleasantly surprised so that's my 10 new games for the Amstrad CPC I just have a few more updates before I head off I'm hoping for my next video that toky will have finally been released Zypho son of Amstrad recently covered a new 25 Hertz version of Alcon and apparently it's a game changer and thanks to Chris Wilkins Amstrad fans now have a brilliant new magazine and it's called Amtix on that bombshell we end the show and I'll leave you with this
