Future Knight Remake Windows game

Future Knight Remake

A freestyle remake of Future Knight. A platform game released in 1986 for the 8bit computers like Amstrad,
Commodore64 and ZXSpectrum. This remake is based on the Amstrad CPC version.

Freestyle

The map design doesn't follow the original game but rather I designed the maps from scratch. Some game mechanics were improved, like the ability to move while jumping, having an inventory, and a faster gamespeed. Also I have completely changed the ending of this game, the original one was to save a damsel in distress, literally, you had to save a young princess from the bad aliens, and in the end you fell in love with big heart forming upon saving her. Now it's just you trying to find your spaceship and getting out of the alien base. Much simpler and progressive I think :-)

Gameplay

Classic platforming , jump and shoot. The levels are filled with enemies who move in patterns. Enemies will respawn after you destroy them. You will encounter doors or "exit" signs which will lead you to other places of the alien base. Some exits are locked and you will have to find the key to open them! Also you will find useful items, like bombs, health packs.

Availability

I released Future Knight Remake last year as an online Flash Game which you can play at Newgrounds. However I have just updated the game and you can now download it and play offline at your Windows PC. It's available for free, however if you want to support me and buy me a beer please do so, by paying any amount you feel like. Thanks ;-)
