A 60kb mini-game for Amiga 500. Uses PreTracker for audio.

Code,Gfx & Audio by Pink. Done with Bartmans Amiga Debug solution.

The game has been created in C++20 using mainly Coroutines and Lambdas for the in-game code. It was a test project to see if this would work out on A500. It did!

Just fantastic! A game designed with amiga effect limitations in mind and with max polish. The way the cars scale and the road parallax scrolls just made smile from ear to ear. Love the way that the shop helps extend the gameplay after the initial mechanics are known.

C++20? Cool! I'm using Bebbo-GCC now which is GCC6 so seems to support up to std=c++11, but no further. Looking at his long series of forum posts on EAB, porting GCC and making things work smoothly is not an easy task so mad thumbs up for that too!

nice paralaxscrolling, smooth 3D like street and cool idea to zoom the cars depending on the z position.

Nice little game and in general, congratulations for everything you have done on Amiga lately.
An amiga coder.

Why is everybody driving on the wrong side of the road?

Tried the game on my A1200 with CRT monitor now. Looks and plays fantastic!! Catchy tune, great gfx and simple and fun gameplay. There is one bug. The lane that is most far away is sometimes not possible to drive into.

Thanks for your nice comment :)
Bartmans GCC10 port is much more restricted then Bebbos. It's mainly suited for OCS/ECS/AGA Gamedev and demoscene production. However, his C++20 Coroutine feature does speed up writing game code a lot.

It seems that the 61k exe is already packed - so why such an unduly large file size?

Good question. I used -Ofast & LTO for compilation so everything gets inlined. This means a lot of code gets duplicated but with tiny changes. When compiling without optimizations the game is 30kb packed.. Of course there are ways to get the optimized exe size smaller again but this takes a lot of effort that i rather invest in different project.
By the way, when considering that an amiga disk is 880kb you can still put the game 14 times on it. I think that's fine! :)

Using lambdas? Modern code on old hardware magic here!
And also finely crafted result indeed. ;)

Pretty cool game to get people started on Amiga gaming without scaring em away.

The randomness help replayability for lack of any stage structure or goal yet in the end I meant I was most of the time in an either "too easy" situation or "no way to get through".

Very neat game. Double up's for using lambdas and coroutines!

Is the in-game music inspired by Guns in the sky by INXS? :)
