    Default [NEW GAME]Old Towers

    Hey guys, just wanted to point you all to a new game by Retrosouls that's free to play and totally amazing. Its called Old Towers and was released only a few days back.

    Originally it was released on the ZX Spectrum, but the port to the Sega 16bit Genesis and Mega Drive adds a whole host of upgrades and makes the game come alive.

    The download link is in the video's description if you want to try it out.

    This guy is brilliant, always comes with some neat ideas mixing hability and puzzle games. Check his Alter Ego games, the first of them was brilliantly ported to the NES.

    I hope this geats a cart release!

    Looks and sounds much slicker than what I was expecting. I'm liking the work that's clearly gone into leveraging the MD's capabilities as is fitting for a port from ZX Spectrum.

    Very nice graphics, sounds and gameplay. Unfortunately I got often freezes on my Everdrive. Does it work for others?

    It worked without a hitch for me on my Everdrive MD on a Genny 1.

    I love the music. Can't go wrong with those C64-style arpeggios. I recognize the melody from somewhere.

    The tune is Popcorn, it is ancient and very popular.

    It really is amazing. I love it.
    The concept is simple but somehow they could implement a lot in this game.
    I tried their other games too and they have more fun games like this.
    My favorite is Multidude for NES.
