Minecraft being ported to the Amstrad CPC? Welcome to AmsCraft!


This picture above may not look like much, but this is actually a very early preview shot of a Minecraft-style game for the Amstrad CPC that is being developed by lachlank. The current title of the game is being called 'AmsCraft' and will be written mainly in C using SDCC/CPCTelera but with assembler to draw blocks. So far the developer has noted that he is only drawing the screen and player sprite at present and is hoping for contributions from other programmers to make the music that sounds very similar to Minecraft, but in that 8bit style. Also to coincide with this news, the developer has released a very short video tease that goes to show how far the development has come.


I personally don't see this game coming out any time soon, I'd be surprised if it was. But with your help if you know how to code or make music on the Amstrad CPC, this will go a long way to getting the game finished.
