Sorry, now link on the post, my fault. ..
Re: Time Blaster (Time Pilot) foun
Thanks for the download. Now I could play it.
The good thing about is that it is very smooth.
The bad thing are crazy, eye hurting colour schemes on later levels. It also seems to have some crazy difficulty.
You may not notice it as the download works in immunity mode but in real gameplay I wouldn't survive 10 seconds I guess.
The sprites seems also unfinished in some cases, a shapes without details.
But I'm always happy to see old games recovered from the void.
Is anybody going to work on it now and add some finishing touches?

"From the 80's"? The author himself said he started work on it 'about 10 years ago'.

Re: Time Blaster (Time Pilot) foun
Yep, fixed it. Thanks, just noticed the date later
Re: Time Blaster (Time Pilot) foun
Hi. Yes I started it a while ago but it was shelved along with two other games while I worked on other things (mainly InkSpector2), but I do intend to finish it
Re: Time Blaster (Time Pilot) foun
The game looks promising in its current state, so I think it would be a pity not to finish it
It caused quite interest in the Spanish Spectrum scene
Please keep us posted about the updates!
