👍
@@MZX-RG Thanks for this excellent video and inspiration.
Wow! Quite impressive. Thank you so much for posting it. I knew that all that Spectrum demo scene techniques should've find one day some practical use in retro game development.
The multicolor engine would have looked like a miracle in the 80's to anybody who knew anything about how color works in the ZX Spectrum.
Wooooaaaah,how is metal man remix just ever possible on the zx spectrum with it’s multi scrolling background and nearly clash free colors???
Also the evolutionized version of castlevania 2 is also good despite the color clash is still present there.
All wonderful stuff, thanks for this compilation. 👍
Check out the 4 parts series "ZX Spectrum MULTICOLOR Engines" for more fantastic games 😊
Survivisection is like Chaos Engine and Cannon Fodder. Nice.
Survivisection - serious Chaos Engine homage....

Old Tower looks like it could be a really great indie action-puzzler, going to have to see about picking that one up for sure. Also the soundtrack to Castlevania: Spectral Interlude's, at least the song demoed in this video, was an absolute banger. Some of these games are really hampering themselves with poor sounds and a lack of a soundtrack though, though almost all of them look like they would be enjoyable to play.
Castlevania is also a must have, it is one of the best Castlevania games ever made.
Nice
The Sword of Ianna has impressive graphics.
That Mario game looks great. Better than the c64 clone.😮

Cosmic payback is impressive.
How do multicolor games work?
Note, just quality arcades, and nothing near Elite or UFO/Black Raven by Mednonogov !!!
SruviviSection looks like rip off from Chaos engine..i did try to rip the graphics from that game for my own purpose many years back...lol
I think Nothing belongs here
