I-Gunnar - Paulthetall is working on a Dune 2 inspiration for Apollo V2/V4 Amiga's

Yes, AI, don't blame me!

I-Gunnar, a newly announced game by paulthetall, is a real-time strategy demo built exclusively for advanced Commodore Amiga hardware. This Dune 2 inspiration serves as a direct tribute to Gunnar von Boehn and his team at Apollo Computer for their dedicated efforts in revitalizing the classic Amiga ecosystem through cutting-edge hardware upgrades and the architectural design of the high-performance 68080 CPU. Originally conceived as a hobby project, I-Gunnar is programmed using the open-source code from Arrakis, a well-known fan clone of the iconic real-time strategy classic Dune 2. Rather than simply porting the code however, paulthetall adapted the framework to center the game’s primary character around Gunnar himself, acknowledging his monumental contributions to modern 68k Amiga development.

Games in Compilation : Dune, Dune II: The Battle For Arrakis
Launcher Developer :  The Company.pl
Game Info  : The Company.pl has once again released another set of Amiga classics and this time it's none other than Dune & Dune II. Whereas Dune by Cyro is a 1992 Adventure/Strategy video game, based upon Frank Herbert's science fiction novel - Dune II: is based upon David Lynch's 1984 movie Dune and is an RTS released in 92-93. Although in both games you are tasked to mine the spice from the desert planet Arrakis, in the first game it is far more Adventure based in the fact you talk to people, hire allies and defeat the Harkonnen. The second game has far more dominance in our minds as it was one of the greatest RTS games ever released and developed by a very famous company, Westwood. Dune II established the format that would be followed for years to come and laid the foundation for many great games such as the Command & Conquer series. Your task in the second game unlike the first is to deliver the most spice for Emperor Frederick IV and pay off his debts, but be warned as you are up against the Atreides, Harkonnen, and Ordos (depending on who you play). Build bases, harvest the most spice, defeat the enemy and claim the planet as your own, a planet full of spice!  Now thanks to The Company.pl you can play these amazing Amiga classics on your PC.
