The Adventure of Node - A native adventure Zelda-like game is in development for the Commodore Amiga [UPDATE]

Homebrew team Tedzogh, Dor, aZtOcKdOg, imjustpickle and keyj freely, has officially launched a new demo for its upcoming native Commodore Amiga adventure game, The Adventure of Node. Taking heavy inspiration from classic action-RPGs such as Zelda, the title introduces players to a fantasy world requiring sharp reflexes and critical thinking. While the game is still in active development and today's demo is an early tease, the game is likely to go through a lot of improvements until its final release.

Players step into the shoes of Node, a protagonist sent on a high-stakes mission to uncover why a sudden influx of monsters is plaguing the local Crystal Mine. Success relies on both standard sword combat and solving environmental puzzles. The initial demo offers a substantial slice of gameplay such as being able to interact with local town residents, explore a dangerous dungeon, and finally you can even purge a nearby forest of an active, hidden threat.

 Minimum Specs:

  • A1200 020 2MB Chip
  • Joystick + Keyboard

Reccomended Specs:

[UPDATE] After three months of dedicated development, the team behind the upcoming Amiga title The Adventures of Node has officially released what is intended to be the final version of the game's demo. This major update brings a massive overhaul to the experience, introducing significant technical milestones, fresh gameplay mechanics, and a thorough polish driven by extensive community testing. The headline feature of this final demo is a complete visual and performance rework, a substantial leap in audio quality, numerous quality-of-life adjustments and finally many changes to Dungeon areas.

  1. FINALLY! A JRPG FOR AMIGA 68K BEFORE I AM DEAD! People, don't you understand??! THIS MACHINE IS EVEN BETTER THAN SNES for JRPG games and we flood it with sports, racing and shoot up games. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. We need more games like this, please, more and more and more and more and more.

  2. Oh yes, a Zelda Style game, when done well, is highly needed on the Amiga. But what really makes me commenting here is the music style. Bro, it's soo courageous to make it sound like this - go for it! Don't change that! I know people will come and wish for something different, because they are used to decades of silly FM or standard lib orchestral sounds in this genre. Resist! Do it your way. This trappy stuff kicks! Thank you!
