I see the cursor in the editor looks JUST like the Amiga’s in Workbench, only grayscale!

Did you say Amiga? Subbed!!!

I was thinking how about swapping the tile image for the vertical scroll, something like what the first sonic 1 bonus stage made at that time

I wonder why Sega didn't apply this kind of trick for the FMV Sega CD games, so they probably could've had a better picture quality

Is it just me, or do the way that cartridge-based games, especially the way that Sonic & Knuckles works with the console and cartridges, seem more complicated than later disc-based games?

Is there any way we are going to be able to see uncrushed copy’s of the intro and sprites? Or are they lost to time?

3:15 the animation could have scrolled and rotated at the same time

Why are subtitles dutch??????? 1:39

Are you interested in z80? Theres a 28mhz next version of wolfenstein and the atm turbo 2+ 14mhz version too

Este juego me parecia una locura es su época. Ademas era muy dificil. Con mi amigo y mi hermano jugabamos sin parar hasta pasarlo completo. Exelente juego

I really enjoyed this video, but it was a little hard to hear your voice over the background music.

I remember this game on Amiga, though I think I was too your to stick with it for long.

I just went back and beat this game, after about 25 years of owning it. Thanks for the game Jon and co!

Very impressive visuals.

Funnily enough, the first thing that popped into my head when a few mins into the video was, 'psygnosis'.

It seems like concurrent instructions work because on the circuit diagram the logical elements are wired independently and ALU codes don't have overlapping bits. If the ALU codes were consequential or the registers were shared between the operations, the execution of several operations would just mess each other (I didn't work with Saturn, that's just from an experiece from with small weird controllers). Awesome video!

i played a ton of toy story on genesis as a kid. it was really a lot of fun one of the only games i managed to beat. So cool that you worked on it

I'm a little confused with the multiplexing of the sprites horizontally: If you have to use some sprites for the mountains in the background, even if it's only a few repeated horizontally, does that then reduce the max amount of actual player and enemy characters you could then show on the same scanline because you'd go over the sprites per scanline limit and they'd start to flicker? I'm thinking more of Shadow of the Beast here than your game to be honest, as that shows a full-screen-wide set of mountains plus the player and other enemies fully overlapping them, whereas you've been careful to make sure the player is never on the same horizontal lines as the background mountain/cog/fire sprites. Or, does this technique basically overcome the sprites per scanline limit and allow for both a full screen width of mountains [or whatever] plus the normal 8 16-pixels-wide sprites per scanline?

Wait a minute....does this mean a rudimentary port of Doom is possible on the Genesis?! Could it finally be done to a certain extent?

Man, this is art al it’s highest level. Played this in 98’ in Argentina, great memories, it was the end of 16 era and some of us were still playing sega games (clone consoles displaying 60hz with no regional restrictions) including toy story wich was my brother’s birthday gift in 96. Even if I lived the entire console wars in Italy from 91 to 95, when we moved back to Argentina the sega genesis was still rocking, thanks to some of this masterpieces you’ve been working on.

Awesome

It's a shame the algorithm isn't shedding light on these videos these days. They are unbelievably technically impressive. Game devs these days don't have to ever think about things like this. You are one crazy programmer!

WOW LOL

Hopefully after September when the game launches we get some new videos on here. Funko and that type of game is not for me but some of these videos were pretty great

Did you code Atari ST version of Leander as well! If this amount of code trickery through special Amiga chips was required to run Leander, than ST's Leander, which runs preety good for ST terms, is a work of miracle. Anyway, Leander was one of my favourite games on Amiga, and although I play lot of Amiga games on emulation, I don't play Leander because it is to hard without joystick with "push down auto-fire" that I played on back in the day. See, when auto-fire is on, Leander can move and jump but since his sword is hiting constantly, no anoying off screen enemies can hit me cheaply! Since it was push-fire button and hold to auto-fire, as soon as you release it, auto fire stops. Without it, playing Leander on standard joypad these days, for me, is unplayable!

Hi Jon, I wish you the best of luck for this project. The gaming industry is going through a lot of challenges. Maybe you and the team could be able to replicate LEGO’s success.

Hey hey, you have published this game? I loved it. I still waiting Leander 2. I am 46 now... Still waiting man. :))

Pathetic.

"Punches"

Using the Amiga Copper to clone sprites hardly beats the SNES, you are still limited to 8 sprites per scanline and each with a limited colour pallete, the SNES does not play by this rule. I used to use this effect on the Amiga to code parallax starfields ect, but such cloned sprites were limited in their degrees of movement not being able to take the scanline space of their cloned brothers.

Is that the same swing animation from the aladdin tie in?

Our only hope is for the EU to ban all this touch nonsense for on trip controls.

This game is straight up what it looks like when they make those fancy demos from the demoscene into a full on game

Thank you fir this. Old Amiga assembly coder here.

In a fit of rage quitting, during a game of Ghouls N Ghosts, on the Genesis, I pulled out the cart WITHOUT switching it off. When I inserted it, and hit RESET, I was presented with the Japanese version, with awesome kanji GnG logo. Was this causing the cart to read my USA system as a JPN model? I would continue doing this for many other games - sometimes getting really wild results, such as the main character in Mystic Defender "changing to a woman", or so I thought.. (I was young, and naive about Japanese Gi dressings). The Revenge of Shinobi became "The Super Shinobi", and even had a much better ending sequence. In the past 35 years, I've never heard anyone talk about this "trick". Surely others must have done this, or even known about it. On a related note, I also did this with my Neo-Geo AES the following year (1990), even though I was kind of worried I might break a $200 cart, or the expensive console, but I had to know! So, after many attempts, of nothing, I realized it only worked when the cart wasn't fully removed. You had to pull it out at an angle, but leave about have of the pins connected. This would trigger, not a region change, but a SOUND TEST! Weird, I know... It would play, what seemed to be, every single recorded PCM sound, in the game, without any pauses. So, for BASEBALL STARS PRO, it would start with the drum samples. bass drum, snare, toms, hi-hat, splash, ride. Then only guitar chords. Then keyboards. Piano. sound effects, then recorded voice (which there was a LOT of), both Japanese, and USA versions. It was weird hearing the Japanese named teams, which you never see in the USA game. Anyway, I just wanted to share some of this somewhere, and this seemed like an appropriate place. :) -Matt

i'm your 103,001th subscriber, i love your videos and even if nobody's making retro games anymore they really taught me. hoping this game does good! i loved the dinosaur model.

That Mickey Mouse game is stealing waay too much from the Commodore 64 game Nebulus, and Nebulus 2 on the Amiga.

Leander is a truly fantastic game. I remember it well. Would using the Amiga's Blitter chip to draw software sprites help out here? Maybe limited cycle headroom meant frame times would be unacceptably long if it was used (hardware sprites being less of a cycle hit)?

omg!!! I wasn't the only one! like WTF! how did that happen! I was not the only one loll

Gud vid 💯

Whaaat wow hahaha thats funny and cool trick!!! one of my favorite childhood games, thank you

Sonic and knuckles sonic 3 dlc

I don't see any problem. It can execute 4 types of commands and 6 at the same time.

Please come back 😢

hahaha RIP your game company

never scroll backwards

secrets? not from me!

Toy Story was a tough game for a kid in the 90s man, LOL memory lane for me. It was a very impressive Genesis game up against what the SNES was doing
