Toki C64 Remastered is in development, early footage shown!
Toki was and still is an awesome arcade shooter platformer that was released way back in 1989 by a designer by the name of Akira Sakuma for many different systems such as the NES, Sega Mega Drive, Atari Lynx, Atari ST, Amiga and Commodore 64. In it you played as an enhanced Ape transformed from a Human that could shoot energy balls from his mouth defeating strange creatures and finally an evil Wizard. Well If you remember this truly great game, you’ll be pleased to know that at some point in the near future, you’ll be able to play a remastered version which is in development for the C64!
Here is what the Facebook page linked (here) says about this latest footage shown of Toki C64 Remastered. “ARE YOU READY?!🤓EARLY FOOTAGE of #Toki C64 Remastered Level 1 !! This is a major breakthrough since after months of work we have been finally able to change sprite multicolors. You’ll notice there still are wrong colors and other glitches. In fact, we still have to find where individual sprite colors are specified in the code, as well as some sprite offsets that now need to be tweaked to accommodate the redrawn sprites. This is our focus now”.
“Wish us luck!”
