Here is the conversion of Hurlements for cpcteleraNext.

I started with the existing C code from the DOS version of the game, which we previously restored (read the full story here: "Hurlements" (Ubi Soft) sauvé des eaux ? - Abandonware Forums ) and CPC disk images.
I also incorporated some ideas from my own remake: Hurlements - Abandonware France

This version requires only 64Kb and a single disk side (thanks to ZX0 compression):

  • Scrolling animation with objects displayed.
  • Spanish language support has been added.
  • A few additional messages have been included.
  • The number of icons has been reduced to 9 (save/load functions are now located under the “STOP” option).
  • Front-facing enemy sprites have been added.
  • A second button has been implemented to cancel actions.
  • Available directions are now indicated.
  • Hand-to-hand combat is now handled automatically.
  • Small animations for character faces have been added.

Wooooooow, finally!!! Very good work, i loved ZOMBIE when was a boy, i have the original tape of ZOMBIE, but the 64k version with english language.

Hurlements never get out a 64k version on tape.

Hope of see very soon, Manor.

Can you made a patched versions of ZOMBIE+ and Hurlements+ for work on GX4000 or cdt version for play on a real machine cpc 464?

Thank you, for your work.

Code and structure of game have to change because images are reading in sectors of disk, and for gx4000 it’s stored in ROM.

But i am working on cpcteleraNext to create games on CPR :slight_smile:

In CDT, we can’t load image for each rooms dynamicaly, so all have to be in memory.

Zombi have a CDT version but graphics were very simplified and the adventure was a bit different at end. It’s not totally the same game.

Yes the 64k of zombi is simple, but work very well. I have loved play it.

A version of HULMENT+ and ZOMBI+ for work on GX4000 can be great!.

But with the PLUS cpc power, the games can be colored to 4 colour in mode 1 with dithering?

Thank you, however MANOR hope wich you can put others screens. =)
