Well, here's something I didn't expect to see today, an adaptation of Alien 3 for the Amstrad CPC Plus! Decades after Probe Software released it back in the 90's for the C64, this project ports the Commodore 64 version over to Amstrad's enhanced 8-bit hardware. Rather than offering a standard, sluggish port, the creators have given the game a visual identity of its own. Utilizing the Amstrad Plus's specialized hardware sprite capabilities, it renders Ellen Ripley, the Xenomorphs, stage Guardians, and weapon bursts cleanly on screen. These sprites operate on a dedicated palette completely detached from the background scenery, allowing for beautiful contrast while the action glides smoothly across the screen via fine hardware pixel scrolling.
