Very good shooter with incredibly good graphics and smooth scrolling for this machine. Our German-language review can be found in our recorded livestream starting at 02:47:24. English subtitles are also available. Subscription to our YouTube and Twitch channel is welcome. 🙂

Spammer.

C'mon people, do not blame the author of the game for inaccurate emulators! The game works on real machine, file bug reports to emulator authors. Great game, thank you for publishing it!

Allow me to elaborate : 

sorry i didnt see the emu you linked there but i get different results, the flashing in the sideborders remains so i'll assume thats on purpose tho not sure if its supposed to be only a few scanlines or if the intent was to flash the whole border, that persists on both emulators , it wont run on a mister so i cant test and i definitely dont have a real machine.

On the java emulator my ship looks like the one in the screenshots to the side here, on the emulator you linked it looks different.

On the java emulator i dont have sound, on the one you linked my bullets look different (lol) ... goldorak is pure nostalgia to me from when i was a real little kid (even smaller than the guy in the picture) so i cant help but like it but im hoping this isnt "the final version" yet ...


also if i put the java emu on gx4000 the joystick wont work and i cant get past the title screen ...


fyi


(o : i definitely like your style, shame theres no mister core to feel the real thing :: -- thanks for the assets btw who know we get a jaguar port by 2030)

Hello :) border flashing display when your ship take damage, it's normal. I don't know about Java emulator, I make tests on the original  machine. The ship in the last preview is when you have finished the game, you can play it again with the Alcorak. Well I don't know about java emu but it doesn't work very well ? There are manyother emulator like WinAPE, ACEDL, SugarBox or RVM, you may try with these ones.

i will, thanks , and thanks for the fast reply . You put up literally all media assets for the game on Amstradmuseum, does that mean you are inviting ppl to port your game to their platforms ?

well now ... can you recommend an emulator ? it wont work on the mister FPGA (buti think there is no gx4000 core, however JavaGX4000 ( javagx4000 )  runs it when i put mode to CPC plus, on gx4000 it seems to be stuck at the title screen. Also i get nasty white and red flashes in the sideborder . I have no reference so i dont know if this is normal.

Nice game!

thank you :) did you see that you could use fire B to select the weapon you have bought ?
