CPCEC (windows) is a new Amstrad CPC emulator by CNGSOFT first released in 2019, which replaces CPCE (dos/windows). This 18th version was released yesteray the 10th October 2020.

This new version brings :

• Big changes in the CRTC logic ("Chapelle Sixteen" runs at last!),
• new support for Dandanator cartridges (now you can play "Sword of Ianna"),
• partial Playcity support (enough for Targhan and Toto's teasers to work!),
• more disc protections that work,
• new debugging functions (looking at graphics, following a timer, skipping scanlines and frames, etc),
• improvements in the interface...

Crazy Blaster par Mika (Misfit) REKANEN is available and being sold by The Future was 8bit for 4,99 pounds.

Misfit also wrote in 2018 a remake de Pac Man : Rodman (available on The Future was 8bit).

The video below is of Rodman, not Crazy Blaster.

BSC has released the source code of Soundtrakker 128.

He is also the author of AYAY Kaeppttn!a SID player/tracker .

He is working on AY³ aka AYcubed, a new SID engine which emulates some parts of the SID sound like:

• 3 independent voices
• synthesized square and sawtooth wave forms
• variable duty cycle on square waves Stereo!

I recommand to listen to the Amstrad CPC music by E-dredon which is composing music with a Playcity (made by ToTO), which means 3 AY sound chip for a total of 9 channels.

Amstrad CPC World has finished the 50 levels of the game Brick Rick (by Reidrac) in 47 minutes sur Youtube.

The Game Boy has just been emulated on Amstrad CPC permitting to play Tetris.

So would a pure Amstrad CPC port by Crazy Piri still be interesting ? In my opinion yes.

So Crazy Piri is a group created the 19th December 2019 for the CPC Gamedev Contest 2020 organized by Pascal Visa for the Facebook group Amstrad CPC pour toujours and beyond.

The group was founded by :

• Cedric "leZone" Grandemange (graphics),
• Alexis "KOOPA" Lambin (musician),
• Miguel "RedBug" Vanhove (coder).

40Crisis has written a Game Boy emulator for Amstrad CPC which allows only to play the original Tetris game (the ROM is of course NOT included with the emulator).

To put the v1.1 ROM of Tetris (v1.0 won't work) inside the Temu .DSK disk image, you can use ManageDSK (don't forget to add the Amsdos header). The name of the file must be rom.bin.

Attention you must use this emulator with an Amstrad CPC 6128 (run"temu) or 6128+ (run"temuplus").

This emulator could for the future emulate other games but the mapper for example isnt emulated so few other games would work.

For the keyboard commands, please read the included documentation.

The demo of the adventure game Tristam Island by Hugo Labrande is available for a gameplay estimated to 1 hour-1 hour 30 (first part of the game). The definitive game will be available in a few weeks for 3,99 euros. This adventure game uses the PunyInform engine by Fredrik Ramsberg.

Brick Rick by Reidrac (Juan Martinez) is available on his web site.

Reidrac has been interviewed by Kyuran.

Totems by ESP Soft was released in 2012. It's a twisted remake of Columns by Sega (nice game by the way) with a Tetris mechanic. It seems I missed it, but in may 2020 ESP Soft has released Totems Enhanced Edition that you are able to order as a physical edition on Bitmap Soft. This new version allows you to play versus your Amstrad CPC, who will be smarter you or a thirty years old computer ?
