Rastan – Another demo update to a fabulous WIP Amiga 500 and above Arcade game!
Sometime back I gave you the heads up about a new alpha demo of ‘Rastan’ that was made available by basementApe for the Commodore Amiga. Well fast forward to today and if you’re hoping for some new updates in regards to this Arcade development using Earok’s excellent scorpion engine, then we have been told a new v0.33 demo has been made available. A new demo which according to the creator “revamps level 1-1 backgrounds to bring them a bit more in line with the arcade original”.
Here’s what the website says about the game “Released in arcades in 1987, Taito’s Rastan was one of the best fantasy action-platformers of its time. Now, after eight months down in the basement, the Amiga version of Rastan emerges. This is a demo of the first level, featuring remastered sprites and brand new, reimagined backgrounds, all running on a stock Amiga 500 with 512kb extra ram! No ETA on the finished game yet, but development is going full steam. More news soon-ish!”
