Zero Wing Arcade - NeoGeo port

[h0ffman]

Hey chaps..

It's been a while. I've been back over doing some Amiga stuff lately but someone reminded me that in May I did about 90% of the work on this...

To be honest, was silly putting it down for so long but hopefully I'll find some time to wrap-up the loose ends on it.

Biggest issue is the layer priority on later levels is an absolute mess. That Toaplan hardware is very flexible in that department! There is also the music, but that's not really a big problem to solve.

Anyway.. enjoy the preview!

Awesome! If you’re doing Toaplan…maybe Snow Bros?!?!

Quick update. Hardest hurdle has been sorted. This was very tricky to work around. Even built a tool for compositing the layers.

Zero Wing was one that was at my local arcade next to the Neo Geo cab
This brings me back!

I would have thought the trickiest part would be including all the base.

 

[GoldenGlover]

Praying the engrish remains intact with this port. Stellar work!

 

[h0ffman]

Been a busy xmas break. Nearly at the finish line!
