A new Pengo game made by me

Thread Closed: Not open for further replies.
Hello there everybody I have created a remake of the old Amiga Pengo game for modern PCs with tons of new features and improvements and of course an excellent map editor and other cool stuff.

If you didnt know Pengo was one of the best games for the Amiga it is a really nice Action/Maze game but unfortunately on the Amiga it is locked on that platform unable to emulate 100% perfectly and comes with only a limited selection of maps no ability to change the game and of course no map editor.

My game solves all these issues and anybody who appreciates a game like Pengo or loved the original Amiga version will find mine to a worthy remake of it.

Here is the homepage:
http://ubersoft.org/pengo

Tell me what you guys think... Of course the game is free and requires no payment etc.

I could say...

"I for one am so happy I didn't fall for the scam and download this game. Its a blatant rip off of an old game. In addition there are no updated graphics, no new gameplay features, hell not even any online multiplayer."

Because, if you are going to bad mouth a game made by FD on their own forums, its a bit cheeky to post an advert for your own game on their forums at the same time.

I am of course referring to this: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=102474

"In addition there are no updated graphics"
--- Why would there be *UPDATED* graphics it's a port from Amiga to PC do you understand what a port is? probably not.

"no new gameplay features"
--- There is a vast amount of new gameplay features listed ON the site and shown IN the videos your statement is a blatant lie.

"hell not even any online multiplayer"
--- Multiplayer is partially started and will be completed in an update (in the mean time two player mode is possible on the host pc).

"Because, if you are going to bad mouth a game made by FD on their own forums"
--- I bad mouth the DRM not the game itself I've seen lets plays of the game and find it quite enjoyable thank you very much.

"its a bit cheeky to post an advert for your own game"
-- I would have to be selling the game to *post adverts* this is a free game with no drm of any kind that very very VERY few people would even like its a fringe retro game hardly something worth *ADVERTISING*.

Oh yea not to mention other people have posted their creations on this section of the forum I wonder where I got the idea from hmm?.

PS - Since you are unable to find "new features" on the website I will post them here

**************************************************************
*** Here are a list of stuff added that the original game does not have ***
**************************************************************

* Added the ability to select a campaign to play so you are not locked to the games default levels.
* Added a password system where every so often you will be given a password to a world (top left corner) which can be entered into the option screen to skip to that level.
* You can edit/create levels and save/load them.
* You can edit the world while in-game clicking and placing stuff easily in a WYSIWYG view.
* You can create your own campaigns with up to 99 levels in them complete with intermission text/images and customized game over images/text.
* You can play all the Pengo Demo version levels.
* You can play all AiPengo levels.
* I have included the monster from AIPengo for use in your custom campaigns (It is also in the AiPengo campaign) this monster is pretty fun and has a very interesting AI also it speeds up as you progress through the levels.
* There is a new Pink ghost that uses the same AI as Blinky in PacMan in that it will always seek to lower the distance between itself and the player this will create a formiddable chase although the Ghost can also sometimes make a bad decision and take the wrong path.
* Pink ghost has been placed inside the pengo campaigns (demo and full).
* Added an options screen where various options can or will be set such as selecting a campaign you wish to play.
* Added a Gold ring powerup.
* Added a Purple ring powerup.
**************************************************************
*** Here are a list of stuff it has been changed from the original game ***
**************************************************************
* There will now only be one White ghost on the world at one time since I felt having more than one was rather unfair.
* The Green ghost will explore the maze instead of going in random directions like the original also it will chase a player who gets too close (approx 3 blocks) and continue the chase unless you can get far enough ahead.
* The Red ghost if trapped will plot a path to safety and travel to it (if possible) this differs from the original and may make reds even harder.
* Some Ghosts in some levels have been changed to make the level a bit harder.
* There is now a sound when you pick up the gems etc.
* There is a confirm quit before you leave the level to help against accidents.
* Changed the Red ring powerup to do something cool (It seemed to do nothing in original).
* Sarvebuk now gives twice the score when killed as the Polar Bear does.
* I'm sure there is many other changes but I cannot remember them all... just search around and find them!.
* I'm sure not all the rewards and spawn rates and what not will be perfect but it should be good enough.

but but but I thought there was nothing new?!?!? Maybe somebody lied oh yea you did.

I haven't downloaded this game, but I don't like it ;)

Yup it is easy to tell if you like something or not.

I have never smoked but I dont like it too. Aint it cool how that works?

I also know I dont like a semi-truck riding over my head but ive never had it done to me isnt that also interesting how I know I wouldnt like it? Hmm.
 
Did this have a Kickstarter? If it did, I'm glad I didn't back this pile of crap then.
I haven't downloaded this game and don't like it, no MP, which is the alpha-omega for me, and all right minded players.
Do you have a forum available so I post over there how I'm not going to buy your game, because reasons?

Ain't that cute you're feeling so butthurt you have to come to this topic and troll bull where as I actually had a real and genuine complaint.

So cute!.

PS - Hate to break it to trolls like you but I'm moving on now I know you will cry and miss me dearly with nobody to troll it will really upset you but don't worry there is many huge topics with thousands of people posting they arent happy with no offline mode I'm sure you can go pick people at random there and start insulting them.

No, you didn't.

However, fare the well, may the trade winds take you to the far ends of this good Earth and drop you over the horizon, never to darken our doors again.

Love, the World.

P.S. The time you're not here or not playing Elite might give you the time and opportunity to drag that disgrace of a website into the late 20th Century.

That reminds me! After I visited all the tobacco company websites to tell them how I'm glad that I don't smoke because I don't like tobacco, I have to register with truck manufacturer sites to tell them how relieved I am that I didn't let one run over my head because I don't like that either! :p
