The Commodore Amiga scene gets another exciting new project, as developer Str1der has announced an ambitious conversion of Capcom’s classic arcade hit, Black Tiger, targeting the Amiga 500 and Amiga 1200. Rather than building from scratch, this release is a direct port of the latest Sega Mega Drive/Genesis conversion project hosted on GitHub by Rester159. While Str1der utilized AI tools to significantly accelerate the initial coding and development phase, they emphasized that the transition has been far from automated. Bringing the game to the Amiga has required extensive manual labor, including endless hours of rigorous testing and adapting months of previous foundation work built for their proprietary Shinobi engine.
