Dig Dug 2 on Amiga?! JOTD’s Retro Revival STUNS Fans! 🤯
Ever wonder if your favorite retro arcade classics could get a stunning modern-day revival on an even *older* platform? Well, prepare to have your minds blown, because the legendary JOTD, known for gifting the Amiga community gems like Ms. Pacman and Xevious 1200, has just dropped a massive bomb! After tantalizing fans with upcoming projects, the brilliant developer confirmed he's diving deep into the 1985 Namco hit, Dig Dug 2, bringing it to the Amiga! This isn't just a simple port; JOTD's developer notes from the EAB thread reveal a true coding odyssey, battling Namco's famously tricky 6809 code, wrestling with weird negative offsets, and taming a complex task system that was "a bitch to simulate." Yet, with sheer determination, JOTD has achieved a monumental feat, ensuring the game is now 100% playable just like the arcade original! And the best news for the new year? A fully playable, downloadable version is already out for you to try right now! This incredible effort is a testament to the passion driving retro gaming, promising endless fun as we eagerly await the bug-free final release.
