Brings back great memories of the original Atari game! 8-)
Awesome work recreating the box art for the cockpit. Back in the day I always thought this existed in the same universe as the Enemy Mine movie.
This is cool! I still play Rescue on Fractalus on my Tandy Color Computer 3... All original parts from 1987, including the CRT monitor! This was one of the good games on that computer.
I legitimately had to hide behind the sofa in fear when I was younger whenever the alien popped up. I have a feeling playing this in VR would trigger some repressed form of emotional terror in me.
Me too! I was so scared of this game! Mad really. Those footsteps would fill me with anxiety and playing alone as a 7 year old was too much!
Yeah, me too. Bastard scared cr@p out of me!
Same here. Nearly had a heart attack the first time. From then on I always closed my eyes and listened for the alien instead.
Loved the game on my 800XL when I was a kid. Nice remake!
Me too! This is how it should have been on the 800XL back then: th-cam.com/video/6_qSmQz6y4M/w-d-xo.html 😁
Next go for Koronis Rift!
Yes. Me also. Good and old time also with Atari Drive 1050.
@@TPau65 Then the good olf Sally (6502 CPU) has to run on 500Mhz! ;)
The same here!
Awesome remake! Great job! Can't wait to play it. My humble whish list:
- Make the intro music arranged with better classical orchestra instrument samples (not the GM Synths)
- Stop the ship's shaking right after it exits the shaft
- Make it more difficult to avoid the alien saucers (like the original)
- Do not shake the ship when tower destroyed
- Make it more difficult to find the stranded pilots (like the original)
Love the simplicity in the redesign, there's no inserting more than there was in the game just because you can (as in content not extra bits on the control panel).
Oh my, the alien here could use a hefty dose of scare factor. The original gave me trauma as a child.
It's actually better in version 1.1.0! But still not perfect imho.
Oh yes, the original Atari version scared the shit out of me when that Alien appeared the first time! Especially when you have played the leaked Beta "Behind Jaggi Lines" for hours before. An almost complete version, but without these Aliens! 😁
This would be perfect on iOS, iPadOS, and tvOS.
One small nit: Make the alien that bangs on your cockpit look scarier. Somehow the C64 monster is more scary.
I'm not the author of this game! See link in the description. There also is a version for MacOS and Linux. In the actual version 1.1.0 new "jumpscare" sounds has been added for the Alien, at least a bit similar like on the Atari 8-Bit original.
That’s hype. Looks incredible! LA games were awesome. Ball blazer needs to be rezzed as an e-sport. Best with this. Maybe some pixel art eggs? Cheers!
schon sehr geil dass der das auf den PC portiert hat bzw. er hat´s ja neu programmiert. Weiss noch wie mein Kumpel damals am XL sass und das am spielen war und wusst nix von dem Monster. Der hatte sich dann derart erschreckt, das er sich samt Schreibtischstuhl gewiss 2 Meter nach hinten geschubst hat ^^. Das Sahnehäubchen ist die VR Version. Das ist mega, auch wenn es noch nicht so ganz so flüssig und schnell auf der VR Brille funktioniert. Es ist aber relativ gut spielbar und macht´nen heiden Spass. Richtig im Cockpit sitzen und alles riesen gross sehen, vor allem, wenn man vom Planeten aus zum Mutterschiff zurück fliegt, das kommt schon mega. Und auch das Mutterschiff grafisch ist schon ein Augenschmaus und ziemlich exakt wie beim XL im Ladescreen das Mutterschiff.
Oh ja, das Alien war auch mein erster (und wohl heftigster ^^) Jump-Scare in der Computer/Video-Spiele Geschichte! 😉
Und das obwohl ich das Spiel schon vorher längere Zeit gespielt hatte, in der Beta-Version "Behind Jaggi Lines". Dort war das Alien aber noch nicht enthalten! 😁
@@TPau65 echt nicht? ich hab Behind zwar auch aber nie wirklich gespielt. Aber da sieht man mal, es benötigt keinen Hightech um anderen einen Schreck einzujagen ^^
Very faithful remake!
I wish someone remade Star Raiders II / Last Starfighter game... Ahhh... A man can dream...
Imagine if someone could understand and use the mathematics used in the original to create an advanced 3D engine on modern computers.
Good job, man! I was following your progress on the remake for years but somehow never caught the v1 release! Pleased for you to have managed to complete it, and thanks for bringing it to everyone!
Ehm, I'm not the author of this game, I just present it in a video! 😉
And there is V1.1 by now, with several changes, bugfixes etc.
My earliest memories of gaming are watching my dad play this on our Atari 800.
I played this game so much on my C64. How about making a version of Koronis Rift?
You have to ask the author of this game for that (link in description). But I'm pretty much sure there will be no Koronis Rift Remake from him!
There already is one remake of Korones Rift, made by Georg Rottensteiner. Just google his name together with "Korones Rift remake" and you'll find it. It's quite faithful to the original, too.
Yea, it was one of my all-time favorite games on the C64.
2:18 Wow, that was cool.
It's cool how your radar screen looks like the original game, like all that time we were just playing the radar.
Great! It has the look of the Atari XL Version just in muuuuch better!
Yes, remake of Rescue from Fractulas. Had it in CoCo3.
An amazing remake!!!! I love this and it’s a blast to play!!!
i wonder if Koronis Rift and The Eidolon will get a remake. Thank you this game was an old time favourite of mine. First game that ever scared me
Oh yes, the Alien in this game also was my first jumpscare in videogame history! 😁
There's something different about the Jaggis? Not sure their name fits anymore. ;-)
Looks great!
