Lol.

Game: The Town With No Name
Developer: Delta 4 Interactive
Platform: Amiga CD 32
Date: 1992

Here is a full walkthrough and review (Warning: Spoilers): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3qVbbzElJI

If GOG could get ahold of this game, and mod it to implement a save-point system, I'd gladly pay $.99-1.50 for it!

:)

Considering it is a CD32 title, never. GOG doesn't release emulated games unless the party who owns it is willing to do something about it in the vein of Cineware.

You know, another platform aside, that alone makes the effort so enticing for GOG. This is a pure GOLD MINE I tell you!

GOG, get you fat finger out of the CDPR cake and do this, and quick, before anyone else does it!

Interesting, I didn't realize that they did emulation, apart from the odd dosbox and SCUMVM title.

But, I did think that GOG wasn't going to release games that weren't originally for DOS or Windows.

Emulation might be the wrong term in case if Cineware titles, at least not in the same way UAE emulates Amiga. They wrote custom interpreters or something like that to make the game run natively. Or that's how I gathered it at least.

Gotcha, either way I didn't realize that had happened beyond dosbox and scummvm.

GOG is not Amiga's friend.

Scratch, reverse. GOG would be friends with any platform willing to publish; but most of them were designed as a proprietary platform with unique bioses and hardware for just such a reason as to shaft any attempt to copy them.

No, just no.

It always comes down to what the current rights holder is willing to do. And as the Cineware games are still owned by the people who made them, and they have the source code, they were willing to bring their old Amiga games to new platforms.
