Tony Montezuma's Gold - A fabulous monochrome Platformer for the Amiga, AtariXL & Commodore 64

Thanks to Monochrome Productions letting us know, we have been told that if you were hoping to play their newest of creations for the Amiga, Atari XL and C64 called 'Tony Montezuma's Gold'. Then at some point from this article going live, you'll be able to play this top quality platformer that will also be premiered during Pixel Heaven 2024. A game that looks like it could be right at home on a classic Macintosh with monochrome graphics! As ever, Saberman has provided some videos which gives us a better look at the game by Vladimir Jankovic, Dudek, Maciej Małecki, Adam Gilmore, and Sami "Mutetus" Juntunen.


Here's the latest about the game, which will be available as a gorgeous boxed edition published by K&A Plus Magazine. "Embark on a pixelated journey inspired by Tony Halik, the real-life Polish explorer and filmmaker whose adventures spanned continents and decades. He was exploring ancient civilisations for NBC, Tony's love of discovery knew no bounds. Now it's your turn to step into Tony's digital shoes and unravel the mysteries of Montezuma's Castle in this nostalgic 8-bit homage".


Tributes : To the legacy of Tony Halik for inspiring this pixel quest. For those of you who remember the days of 8-bit adventure, we hope this brings back fond memories. To newcomers, welcome to a legendary era of gaming.

  2. Wait.. they expect you to pay £10 for EACH of the versions (C64, Amiga, Atari)??? That's not cool at all.. If I'm paying full price for a simple platform game for old systems I would expect to get all three versions for this price.

    1. I can't see the problem: if you buy a game for PS5, you don't get the Nintendo Switch, PC and XBox versions too. Why is this case different?

    2. I have to agree with Mau. Your argument is just silly. I guess people just think they are entitled to have everything for free these days.
      Besides why would you need to buy the game for multiple systems anyway.

  3. Title screen looks just like monochrome Sam from Sam's Journey.

    1. eh not really. They got different facial features particularly eyes and nose. They have different body proportions. Tony here reminds me more of old comics like the Beano and Dandy. Sam's entire body could fit within his own head. :D

    1. I like the SID on the C64, so I'm leaning towards that version :D

    2. They should send them all for free to you, for all the free advertising.

  8. I know the black and white is an artistic choice, but I don't see myself paying that much for a monochrome game.

    1. None of this makes any sense, He looks very different on the box, game and shirt. in the previous, and now deleted, topic it was explained the game needed to be in monochrome and the title screen in bitmap because he is going through a dimension or something. But then why are the title screens of the other versions in monochrome? The creator is working on a full color version of the game now, so I guess it didn't need to be in monochrome after all. Color version looked ok though.

  10. I have bought this games for my C64 retroarch and Winaue. Both games work great and it takes a while to get used to using the jump button and then things start to become very exciting.
