Echodrome - This Commodore Amiga game by PixelPlop is fantastic!

Echodrome, the high-octane arena shooter from developer PixelPlop, has not only taken the first place crown in the AmiGameJam 2025 but as of this week there's a new build released as v0.11. Created over six months using C++, this "Return of the Arcade" entry has quickly become a standout for modern Amiga enthusiasts, earning a perfect 5.0 rating on itch.io. A game that has also gained feedback such as "This must be one of the best "amiga only" arcade game ever!" and "This game is awesome. Donated! :)"

Emulated

Real Hardware

Designed to run on classic Amiga OCS/ECS hardware with just 1MB of memory (512KB Chip/512KB Slow), Echodrome delivers a frantic, neon-soaked experience reminiscent of Geometry Wars and Smash TV. Players are thrust into a digital arena of "death and destruction," where the goal is simple: eliminate every wave of enemies to unlock the exit. Reviewers and players have praised the game's "TRON-like" aesthetic and smooth performance across a variety of setups, including the A500, A1200 with PiStorm, and MiSTer, highlighting its professional polish and addictive "one more run" gameplay.
