Release Maze Of Galious And Roadfigher Remake Port

[Dimacus]

Hello there.


Let me present the following ports to you;


The Maze of Galious And Roadfighter remakes by Braingames


Let me begin with Maze of Galious, or MoG as it is often shortened.

(screenshot is using the Naramura graphic set, included)


The braingames page for this game is http://www.braingames.getput.com/mog/


(Taken from their page)

The Maze of Galious (MoG in short) was originally a Konami game for the MSX computer system. Its real name is Knightmare II: The Maze of Galious and is the sequel of another Konami game called Knightmare.

MoG is a very addictive game where you have to kill thousands of enemies, collect items in order to obtain new powers and defeat some really great demons at the end of each level.


The gameplay of MoG is not the boring linear one. In MoG you are free to go everywhere you want from the beginning of the game.


You have to be very careful of the order in which you visit all the rooms in the HUGE map if you want to keep your character alive.


The map is structured in a main map (called the castle) and 10 submaps (called the worlds).


Initially you are in the castle and you have to find the keys that open the doors to go to each of the worlds.


To complete the game you have to defeat the boss at the end of each one of the 10 worlds.


You are free to revisit each world as often as you want in order to see if you have missed something.


To defeat all 10 demons you control two characters: Popolon and Aphrodite.


Each one has special abilities, i.e. Popolon has a greater ability to jump and Aphrodite is able to dive.

There are several different graphics sets as well as sound sets included, you can, anytime you want, switch between them using the F9 and F10 keys.


The controls can be defined ingame, but some keys are however hard-coded, so, don't configure the game to use any of the following buttons:


Left Shoulder button (Zoom out)


Right Shoulder button (Zoom in)


Start usually brings up a menu, or quit's said menu.


Escape (exit the game)


D-Pad UP (climb ladders)


Any Fx key or the numerical keys (f9 & f10 changes sound/gfx theme)


The Default controls are (and these are remapable by pressing the 'K' key):


Dpad for movement (DPad-up is hardcoded to climb ladders, binding it to something else will cause the game to do that and try and climb ladders.)


A - attack w. sword


X - jump


B - use item


Y - Item menu


Select - pause (Select also brings forth the Load screen, if you are in the main menu, this mapping cannot be changed)


Don't forget that you need to press F5-F9 (save slots) in the save room in order to save the text string.


These keys recall that text string in the load screen.

Next up is RoadFighter.

The braingames page for this game is http://www2.braingames.getput.com/roadf/


RoadFighter is a remake of an MSX classic with the same name.


It is a simple racing game, where the goal is to reach the end of the level before your fuel runs out.


This is not as simple as it sounds since there are other vehicles on the road, some even trying to run you off the road!.


Controls are fairly simple and can be change in-game.


D-Pad left and right turns you left/right.


A key accelerates.


Fn-Q/Esc aborts your current race.

Have fun!

took you long enough to make a topic :lol: those are from february

That's because windows 7 dosn't change the creation date when you replace files with the same name, it only changes some sort of 'latest change' date.


But they where mostly complete a few weeks ago, but I got kind of busy and that delayed the last changes.

Thanks for your hard work Dimacus.


I'll give these a try later.

The Maze of Galious will be one of the first home brew I play on my Pandora when I get it. I've wanted to play this since I saw a few play it through videos on youtube.


Thanx for the work!


EDIT: Any chance for a port of The Goonies - 20th anniversary?


Well, all of those games on the Braingames site are great!

Is there a way to make Maze of Galious run full-screen? I know the shoulder buttons will zoom, but it would be nice to have it fill the screen (I may just be missing an option somewhere...).

 

[second exodous]

I think it is that way because it was like that that on the MSX. If you watch play throughs of it they are shrunken like that also. It must have been a style thing, the Ys games were like that also. Or it was the MSX, did it not play games full screen?

I love the maze of galious remake! Very addicting game.


Roadfighter doesnt work for me dont know why?
