30.01.2022 - 'Akumajou Dracula' - a Castlevania port for Amiga released as prototype
This could be the next project after Green Beret. But what is in this demo? The whole level one, with its sections (1-1, 1-2 etc) right up to the boss, which can be destroyed and drops an orb. The basic "framework" for the game is set: main character has whip and secondary weapon picked along the way (knife in this prototype), gets 'hearts' for mana by destroying candles, I think that I've included all level 1 enemies (except that huge floating eye), enemies have functions (red ones can jump out of the water and shoot at you) etc.
