Indie Retro News: Q*Bert – An Arcade classic is coming to the Amstrad CPC Plus, with a beta now available!

This is the most recent “Q*bert was programmed by Gottlieb in 1982. The arcade sport impressed a plethora of ports to many dwelling computer systems within the early 80s, together with a number of clones for the Amstrad CPC. Regardless of this, there has by no means been a model for the Amstrad Plus machines that takes benefit of its superior capabilities. I hope to have the ability to launch a devoted rendition of the sport for the Amstrad Plus platform.”

Proposed options

• Graphically as shut as doable to the arcade model because the Amstrad permits
• Multicoloured {hardware} sprites
• All the unique sport mechanics, ranges and sprites to be recreated
• Hopefully Q*bert’s speech to be recreated by synthesis software program
• Redefinable keys
• Joystick enabled menu and scoreboard controls for GX4000
• Cartridge model, floppy disc and cassette model
