Roland of Sherwood - Carnivac improves his WIP Amstrad CPC styled game

Carnivac has given the CPCwiki community a rather nice screenshot update today for his in development Amstrad CPC styled game of ' Roland of Sherwood ', which looks like it may be released at some point this year for the PC. An update of the Roland in Time/Space pics with his time travelling phone booth having landed in medieval England. This latest update features a completely different view of the original landscape to the one seen above, that's far more bleak and more gritty, to that of a bewitched look.

Roland of Sherwood - Carnivac's Amstrad CPC styled game gets new details!

Another Amstrad announcement today and it's all to do with Carnivac's great looking Amstrad CPC styled game ' Roland of Sherwood ' which is still in development with a release looking likely this year. An update of the Roland in Time/Space pics with his time travelling phone booth having landed in medieval England. The latest update features a completely redone status bar as a medieval banner, menus now auto-tiled to look like scrolls and a new font. In terms of what's to come next, apart from the main stuff almost done, Carnivac is doing more screen layouts and obstacle courses for each screen. A worthy looking game indeed and one I seriously hope will appear on a real Amstrad!

Roland of Sherwood - Carnivac's Amstrad CPC styled game gets an update!

You may remember our recent feature of Carnivac's most impressive looking Amstrad CPC styled platformer game of 'Roland of Sherword' which is still in development. But we've just been given the update of a new screenshot which looks rather nice to say the least. The developer has also noted since our most recent article, that he only started it not long ago but it's a relatively simple game with almost all of the main code and 75% of level graphics are done, so technically it's already the most complete of his CPC projects.

Roland of Sherwood - Carnivac's next impressive Amstrad CPC game

Carnivac of the CPCWiki forums is certainly no stranger to us, in making Amstrad games that are real eye openers in graphical detail. He blew us all away with the work in progress Cosmic Prison Commando, now he's doing the same with his latest platformer game 'Roland of Sherwood'. Unlike his previous work in progress title, this one isn't as far developed as he's only just been making it over the last few days as a test project for himself and any CPC developer who wants to have a go at converting it to a real CPC when finished.
