A downloadable game for Windows

This is a remake of the infamous game Airwolf on the Amstrad CPC, originally released in 1985. It contains the whole 1st level but has no ending (like the original, lol).

This is intended as a game developpement exercise and was all created live on twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/alaiing), using the MonoGame framework.

It was made by trying to replicate the original game through observation not emulation and so it is not exactly identical to the original experience.

I did try to improve on the original. Try it out in the "Revolution" version.

I do not own any of the graphical assets.

All sounds were made with my mouth, including the music. Yeah, I know.

All the live sessions are available as VOD on Youtube (french): 

Alternate version:

If you download the "Airwolf Revolution" version, you'll find an "upgraded" version of the game where I tried to improve it a little:

- more life

- less frequent damage

- damage feedback

- better aiming

- destructable enemies

- AN ACTUAL ENDING! (with a surprise)

Controls:

Player 1 : gamepad / arrows + space

Thanks:

A big thanks to Éric Cubizolle (Titan) and Alain Le Guirec for making the "Reloaded" version on the actual Amstrad CPC, which allowed me to use cheats to thouroughly test the original game!
The "Revolution" version is dedicated to you. (get the ref? :D)

Oh ?! Excellent !
Titan vient de me faire découvrir ton travail (je suis l'autre Alain ).
J'adore le traitement sonore : c'est de toute beauté.
Heureux de constater que tous les Alain sont dingues :)

Haha ! Merci !
Et surtout merci pour ton travail sur la version CPC, ça m'a vraiment aidé pour tester toutes les salles (et découvrir l'envers du décors). :D

(1 edit)

bel effort pour se rapprocher de l’expérience de jeu originelle. J’aurai aimé qu’airwolf revolution soit effectivement une revolution, genre avec un tutoriel et en permettant de détruire certains éléments du décor. Pas juste en rajoutant du temps ou en grossissant les munitions.

J'ai eu la flemme :p
