Possible further ports: We could port Barkanoid 2 also to MorphOS and/or AmigaOS (PPC only). But since we do not have any idea of how large the market still is and if there is request for this type of casual game on the Amiga market(s), we would be happy to receive feedback regarding ports of Barkanoid 2 to the above systems.

Barkanoid: Possible MorphOS/AmigaOS ports : Comment 5 of 24 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Jupp3 on 09-Jun-2004 14:14 GMT | It sure sounds nice, but does it LOOK nice?
In other words, are there any screenshots available?
Untill now Babeanoid has been (imho) the best "Breakout game" for Amiga but sadly it's very dependant on the classic hardware...
Personally I prefer good 2D games (such as Knights & Merchants, classic arcade games etc.) to most 3D shooters.
Anyway, I'd likely buy MOS version... |
