SkyKid - 1980's Namco classic is getting a PC remake! (Demo)


Way back in 1985 Namco released the horizontal side scrolling shooter game of ' SkyKid ' for the Arcades. It used the Namco Pac-Land hardware, and allowed up to 2 players to play together, as a first from Namco. This same game did appear as a port on other systems during the late 80's on the NES, with further ports on more modern consoles such as the Wii. Well you'll be pleased to know, as a mention from the developer Paul Green, he is remaking the game for the PC, with other platforms depending on the PC development.


If however you are not content with just a heads up video, the developer has said that this game is being remade in Gamemaker Studio (GML) and is currently available as an early alpha version for you download, test and break as much as possible. So basically, whatever you break, he wants to fix it for when the full version is released.
