For those who follow Amiga scene developments, you may already have seen various tech demos of the Scorpion Engine (also developed by Erik) and what it can do. For those who haven't, this is one of the most exciting game dev tools for the Amiga that I've seen in recent years, something that promises to give rise (hopefully) to a new wave of games for one of the greatest computers of all time.
Amigo the Fox was released on 20/06/2021 and is designed as sample project to demonstrate what the engine is capable of, and I think it does this with aplomb: multiple layers of parallax scrolling, background planes and sprites with a level of performance that is very admirable, even on an A500. The game design is based on Mike Wiering's 1994 open source DOS PC clone of Super Mario Bros (www.wieringsoftware.nl/mario/i..., and it's a really good fit for this project.
This particular longplay was done using an A1200 configuration (which is the recommended configuration), although it works perfectly fine with an A500 with 1MB expansion, although there will be some slowdown at times.
Overall, Amigo is a really neat example of what the Scorpion Engine can do, and I can't wait to see what comes next once devs have chance to experiment with it.

wait,why i fell super mario vibes?

[@BikeNutt1970]

This doesn't look like it was made with a 'construction kit'. A superb SMB clone that shows just what is possible with this toolset.

[@TheStuffMade]

I was thinking, that looks like a great Mario inspired platformer, wonder why I have never played this on the Amiga.. then checks the description, oh, it was just released.

[@espenamodt403]

Looks fantastic! Wouldn't believe this kind of game would come from anything but 100% handmade asm on this classic computer

New Subscriber! Thanks for replaying these games for all of us. I know there are hundreds of channels that have these games, but I'm too lazy to search for them, and prefer to just watch as they appear on my feed. Peace!

[@gumdeo]

[@antjarvis]

[@brancaleone8895]

cool i have no idea theres people that still care about old systems like Amiga

[@nebularain3338]

There's an entire community around the Amiga today. It's not just fans, but game developers, and people making new hardware for it, like 3D printed cases, and the Vampire.

Марио лис. :)

[@antonyarnould]

Bubsy the Bobcat on Amiga is a great video game!

[@gonzothebudgie8923]

This game is for me a clone from a clone. I talk about The Great Gianna Sisters.

[@Mr.NoPrints]

Cool Super Mario Bros - style game 👍❤️ Don't tell Nintendo about this game. 🤫😂

[@Icelink256]

I could tell from the thumbnail that this was a homebrew game, because Surt's pixel art is horribly overused in quick example projects like this! :P

[@em00k]

Looks like this suffers the same as every other euro-platforms. Poor level design and odd gameplay..
