Do you want to develop a game for the Amstrad CPC? Yes? Then this is maybe the optimal time to start with it, because the CPCRetroDev 2015 contest has just started and it offers about 900 EURs in prices. It is organised by the University of Alicante / Spain and aims to award the best and creative game developers who developed a game for the Amstrad CPC 464. The deadline is friday, 23rd October 2015 – so you still have enough time to get into Amstrad CPC development either with the CPCtelera game development kit, the great programming tutorials on CPCMania, the CPCrslib programming library or cpcitor’s development toolchain.

The following awards can be achieved:

PRO Category

  • 300 € Best game
  • 150 € 2nd best game
  • 75 € 3rd best game

BASIC Category

  • 100 € Best game

CPCRSlib 10/24/2012 for SDCC

Artaburu released a first beta version of his utility library for the SDCC C compiler. E.g. Mariano the dragon or the recently released Nanako Descend To Hell was written with this library (using the Z88dk compiler as backend) and so it contains a lot of graphics functions, keyboard functions, map functions, etc. You can download it from the Google Code page of the CPCRSlib.

Here are the changes since my last posting:

10/24/2012

A little bit late, but anyway: Artaburu released a new version of his utility library for the Z88dk C compiler. E.g. Mariano the dragon or the recently released Nanako Descend To Hell was written with this library and so it contains a lot of graphics functions, key functions, map functions, etc. You can download it from the official homepage of the CPCRslib.

Here are the changes since my last posting:

cpcrslib with horizontal scrolling capabilities is uploaded. From now, there will be 2 official libraries: one for scrolling and one for static screen. Although the scrolling one can be used to for static screens, because it has been improved for scrolling, when static using it is a slower than the "standard" one. Horizontal scroll example included.

Bug in cpc_WyzPlayer corrected. When saving the player interrupt jump, the code was being corrupted due to a bad definition of the address where the original jump was being saved.

cpc_PrintGphStr0,cpc_PrintGphStr0M1: Optimized code: Smaller and faster, thanks to Kevin Thacker for coding it on Blue Angel 69. cpc_PrintGphStr2X,cpc_PrintGphStrXY2X,cpc_PrintGphStrM12X,cpc_PrintGphStrXY2X: New routines for printing graphical text at double height. Sample 5 modified.

And another game from the Mojon Twins: Sir Ababol. This time you play a young crusader named Sir Ababo which has to collect the strange ababol flowers and regain his sword so that he is able to keep journeying to Jerusalem.

You can read the complete story and download the CDT and DSK version on the Sir Ababol homepage. They also released the source code of game.

This game also uses the Z88dk C compiler with cpcrslib, the PSG player and Exomizer 2 for compression.
