A (very) simple torch flame demo. Shows 100 flaming torches on screen. As you can see by my screenshot, I was able to run this at 450+FPS.
This is a simplified version of my flame routine in my Sorcery game. It's not doing anything big or clever, and it's not particularly realistic, but it gives a pretty good impression of a fire (changing the colours in the animation strip might make it look more realistic, but I needed a cartoon-styled flame to fit my game).
A brand new demo of the famous Amiga game, Shadow Of The Beast. This demo gives you limited control over the Beast and allows you to play across the full first level of the game (minus any enemies) - a total of over 2 minutes from one side to the other!
This is not intended to be a complete game, and I have no intention of making it so or developing it further (although I had originally intended to put a scrolling message in the black border at the bottom).
This is also not intended to be an exact remake of the original level, rather an interpretation of it.
