Out of curiosity, who is interested in a #Amberstar remake? I consider a like as interested. ;) #Thalion #Amiga #Retrogames #Amigaretweets

Hi everyone. As you might have noticed I am not really active here anymore. If you want updates please join my discord server: discord.gg/CCTt3bAh7g Today #Ambermoon was released for a public test in the google play store for #Android. You should be able to find the app there.

@Static_and_Fire Very busy with other stuff unfortunately. But I will soon continue working on it.

@Pyrdacor How is Amberstar going? Out of curiosity.

#Ambermoon Advanced episode 3 is now available for the #Amiga. I had an annoying bug which took a long time to fix. Downloads here: #downloads" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/Pyrdacor/Amber… Please read my posts below as well. It's important. Have fun! #Thalion

I couldn't test everything in detail so there might be crashes and bugs. Please report them and save often! Maybe even backup the saves from time to time.

There is no WHDLoad version right now. The WHDLoad downloads are only for 1.03 (episode 2) and not the current version 1.30 (episode 3)!

First small preview of the current state of the #Ambermoon quest log. Most of the work lies ahead as I have to manually identify each quest in the game and how their state is represented in savegame data, then write descriptions for all of them and test. youtu.be/pCA6EmhXGl8

@a1exh Maybe I will hide the completed ones.

@a1exh Well only quests you encounter are shown. Then there are 3 states/colors: active, blocked and completed. Blocked means you first have to complete something else, e.g. bringing the horseshoes to Tolimar to get the tools for removing the cave-in. The colors might be adjusted.

While I still work on the #Amiga release for AA Ep3, I am also working on some new module for the remake: a quest log. Of course #Ambermoon has no real quest system but I can pinpoint quest markers based on some values in the savegame manually. So it is a lot of manual effort.

@a1exh Well the plan is that the quests are added only when you find them in game. For example after talking to some NPC etc. So there will be no spoilers.

@Pyrdacor Looks good. I like the hierarchical view. However it could result in lots of accidental spoilers. You could see quests that are not fully complete. Maybe an option to only see completed sub-tasks? That way you can see all the incomplete quests but not what goes into them

I worked very hard the last days and finished the english translation for #Ambermoon Advanced episode 3. Now available in remake version 1.10.3. Now focusing on the #Amiga version to release it soon. I wish you all a good year and have fun with Ambermoon (Advanced).

Note that the new Advanced version is brand new and brings a lot of changes and new stuff. There might be bugs and issues. Save often and maybe even backup your saves before you continue any old game. Report bugs if you find them. This will help me to improve things. Thanks!

Happy new year to you all! I just released a new update of my remake (1.10.1). It finally contains the 3rd episode of #Ambermoon Advanced (only german for now, working on translations, #Amiga version soon). Thank you all for your support! 2025 will be good year for #Amberstar.

Note that the current Android version might have issues. Don't expect every to work. Make sure to watch the tutorial closely, as it explains some controls and interactions on mobile devices.

Finally #Ambermoon for Android is now available as early access in the Google Play Store. For now I need to whitelist testers through email addresses (playstore account mails I guess). So if you like to participate and get early access, please contact me via DM or mail.

This issue contains a 6 page article about #Ambermoon with interviews of @JurieHorneman , Erik Simon und Karsten Köper. And also a small interview of me about Ambermoon Advanced. I just received my print copy. 😍 #Amiga #Thalion

@macce25 I actually added new backgrounds already for the roof of towers. In original on top of the tower ruins you fight as if you were inside the basement. Same for top of Manyeyes' castle. Not anymore in next episode.

@Pyrdacor Awesome! If only I could finish some sketches for the additional battle backgrounds to be considered..

Spoiler Alert: The next episode of #Ambermoon Advanced won't only add new stuff, it will also improve existing quests, monsters and so on. In the second episode I added the Vortex and the remains of Manyeyes from #Amberstar. I added a completely new monster sprite which was ugly.
