Hi Torben.

Yeah it does look nice on the big ipad. It is even cooler when I plug the HMDI out into my TV for an even bigger experience :P.

You have done well with the graphics department and that obviously goes without saying for the Amiga, I feel that the color pallet that you used is very arcade like.

Thanx Zro
Yes we got a lot more colors into the Amiga game than what was thought possible back then. Out of a standard max 32 color palette mode on the Amiga, we got over 100 colors on display and it shows impressively, imo

Just start counting the colors on screen

Well you know what they say ? What can the Amiga do ? What do you want it to do ? :P

Was there an actual arcade ever put on the table for Battle Squadron?, was there thoughts about doing an arcade back in the day ?

I can just picture that awesome music blasting away in the arcade somewhere.

The Commodore Amiga Home Computer was an arcade machine too and even better, imo!! At least it was ahead of its time in many aspects also as a multimedia computer. One being hardware sprites and the possibility to create fast moving colorful objects on screen. Something Commodore most likely saw as a succes on Commodore 64 and its hardware sprites.
Like all other hardware you need to tweak it a bit in order to get the best out of it

I always felt the Amiga was very arcade like due to every second game released was an arcade port.

It's good to see arcade games and even Amiga games ported to iOS etc. I think it's great that alot of people are keeping retro alive.
