Best viewed at least x2 but preferably fullscreen on a real Amstrad CPC. :)

CPC - Mode 0 (16 colors 'widepixel' resolution)

Always enjoyed the good old RoboCop game both in the Arcade and the version on my Amstrad CPC but I always felt like doing a mock up because while the CPC version looked fine at the time I had ideas on how to improve it and make the most of the CPC's palette and resolution.

Went for a gritty, atmospheric street riot scene with broken stuffs and fires.  The CPC only has one grey and one brown (dark red) so I improvised with mixing other colours in via texture and shading and I think it came out well. Below are links to shots of the original CPC version of RoboCop for comparison and a link to a doubled up version of my shot with scanlines cos that's how I play old games when using an emulator.

Just spent a couple hours putting this into a real game engine (though for PC, not a real CPC as of yet unfortunately) as I'd already made one for another CPC related project.  Haven't animated the characters yet so they tend to slide and I need to put in diagonal and upwards firing for RoboCop and some death animations but it's certainly functional so far.

Thanks I do like the scanlines and am always happy when I find even a console port of an old game to support them (like Final Fight and Street Fighter III do on my PS3).

I got so pleased with how this turned out given the technical boundaries I forgot I don't really use this site and uploaded it without even really thinking.  And thank you. :)
