Here on Indie Retro News, we love a good retro conversion or remake, and Mutant Monty, developed by Stephen Ancell is as retro as you can get! This is a faithful Amiga conversion of the Amstrad CPC, C64 and ZX Spectrum 1980's classic Mutant Monty by Artic in all its pretty psychedelic coloured goodness. The aim of this game is to collect all the gems and reach the exit on each of the games levels. Also make sure to rescue the damsel if you make it to level 40.
Here's the latest from the website "Some time ago Kevin and I decided to do an Amiga-conversion of the old 8-bit classic "Mutant Monty". This game is remembered by Kevin as a childhood classic and he was looking for a developer to do the coding. Because we are both interested in the Scorpion engine we chose that option do re-create the game. The engine gives us the tools to speed up development and focus on fine-tuning the gameplay rather that hunting bugs in assembly. As a designing reference we chose the C64 version of the game (Amstrad version has some small differences here and there). Kevins graphic design uses more colors than the original but preserves the charm of the classic appearance".
Changelog : Today we've built the first release candidate of Mutant Monty. After some last tests and the approval of all team members we will maybe release the game as a Christmas gift to the Amiga community.
