Game Construction Kit: Scorpion Engine 2023.4
The "Scorpion Engine" (video of development of vertical scroll demos) by Erik 'earok' Hogan enables the development of games. The engine itself is not open source, but all included demos and demo games are. The editor itself runs on Windows. Graphics are imported as PNG files, for level creation the editor Tiled is used. For sounds, music and animations Amiga formats (mod, 8svx, anim5) are used. Changes of version 2023.4:
- Improved copper rainbow support on Amiga, including being able to set any of the 256 colors and at 24 bit color depth
- Support for VGM music on Mega Drive (XGM driver from SGDK)
- Support for saving on Mega Drive (SRAM)
- Ability to support more than 32 active actors at one time
- Improved Cut/Paste/Undo/Redo functionality
- Support for byte arrays - this will be expanded in future with word array support
In addition, Scorpion Engine now includes the previously exclusive Bullet Hell 2 (Amiga) and Real Time Scaling (Amiga/Mega Drive) demos.
