You can't imagine how I'm waiting this game *__*

Maybe, but I really liked CPC game and gameplay, so there is hope that you not only a great pixel artist, but also a good game/level designer c:

Good at game and level design? Uh oh...

Can't wait to see this complete.
Port it to the Master System later on? :>

Color wise I'd say they have similar palettes
But it's a bit higher in resolution.
So getting the sprites to fill the screen as much would be hard

Quite a few other differences too. Nah, not likely to do Master System. Was never a fave of mine.

Yeah technical specs vary a lot, but both run a z80 at equal frequency.
So large chunks of game logic could be reused between these two platforms.
The hardware sprite handling and such is drastically different, as well as the video modes
But if one would like something of lower resolution in order to fit more with the resolution of CPC Video Mode 0, I guess you could go with the Game Gear instead
Still haven't looked into the actual video code for CPC so far, but it'll be a interesting read for one of these days.

Right. But you do know I have zero interest in making this for anything other than CPC? That's kind of the point of the entire project.

I not sure if you being serious anymore.

I'm not seriously asking for it,
I'm just saying it would be neat to see how well ported some stuff could be between the two systems
But yeah, I can see the pattern of most of your stuff being restricted to CPC alone.

Oh right. Not by me though. I don't know a thing about Master System hardware and I never had one so it holds no sentimental appeal for me.
And only 2 of my 3 current projects are CPC related (though I have ideas for some other quick CPC ones too). No idea when I'll ever finish them all though RoboCop: Prime is certainly getting there and then I can re-use a lot of the code for the others.

me too. it'll be nice to have actually finished something.
