In a Youtube live, Rhino will present the secrets of Vespertino the racing game for Amstrad CPC on Saturday 3rd November at 18h00.

Some informations are already available, summarized by Xenomorph. It's finished at 98%. There are 5.000 sprites which gives a very good animations of cars and sense of speed. Each car handles differently and drives differently. Batman’s car was shown : the Batmobile… there are tons of stages, you can buy parts or upgrades for each car, and 3 musicians worked on the game: J.A. Martin, Narcisound (who comes from the C64 scene) and Raft, who have created a whole soundtrack with lots of different tracks. Soon there will be a sort of “Kickstarter” to fund the cartridge production, with various tiers/rewards. The game is a Spanish-French co-production, since the cartridge is being designed and manufactured by Toto. It’s a new design, Rhino mentioned the build shown yesterday takes up about 1.8 Mb, but the final version will be between 3.5 and 4 Mb. Therefore, the cartridge will come with around 4 megs of storage to hold all the graphics and a chip that provides 512KB of RAM to the Amstrad CPC, any CPC : old CPC, CPC+ and GX4000 ! A neat detail: if you press a button while plugging the cartridge in, the game won’t load, but you can use that memory expansion on your CPC. There will be a digital download too, and lastly, no AI was used in the game.

The CPC-Link by Revaldinho originally uses a Raspberry Pi acting as a coprocessor for the Amstrad CPC to help it with heavy tasks such as 3D calculation. Personally, I think it is a very good extension that has unfortunately seen little use, but it is atually used by NoRecess with PiStudio which is a native IDE for the Amstrad CPC. It has features such as an editor and using a allowing the use of a GIT repository.

Today, Rebs presents the CPC-cplink2 which swaps the Pi for a Pico 2350 with still full compatibility with the original CPC-cplink, but adds a 1024-byte FIFO queue (originally 16) and the ability for the CPC to read data calculated by the 2350 in ROMs). There is no website yet to showcase the extension, but that should arrive by the end of the year. Stay tuned !
