Ghosts'n Goblins on MiST

[jotego]

Hi guys,

I have not posted here in a while. Just to let you know that I'm still alive and doing things for MiST. After reaching to a hard stop on the Genesis port because we could not figured out how to fix certain things; I decided to learn more about the MiST platform and how the graphic system of classic machines worked. So I took on my fetiche game: Ghosts'n Goblins.

After a couple of months of working with the original schematics and a PCB I have now characters and scroll working on MiST. I will work on the sprites next. I think that everything will fit in the FPGA, including sound, and that it will be arcade perfect right to the clock cycle. It will be exactly as good as having the original board at home but way more comfortable to use.

You can have a look at some pics in my twitter account here.

Cheers!

That's good news. Ghost'n Goblins was my farourite arcade game when I was young.

That is great... not because of Ghosts n Goblins but to see you tackle this project to learn more about the MiST.

I hope it is working

jotego, your twitter account is no longer available. Is there another place where I can read about the progress on your Ghosts 'n Goblins core?

I am not sure what happened to the twitter account. It has been working for me all this time...

Anyway, as my regular job is keeping me fairly busy and I have not been able to work on this for the last 2~3 months; I have decided to release what I have now. I hope to complete it next year (2018).

Just copy these files to the root folder of a SD card and plug it into MiST. Here is the link. Remember to unzip.

Do not download this unless you are legally entitled to have a copy of the Ghosts'n Goblins ROM.

Sound is completely broken, so do not complain about it. I will fix it eventually.

Enjoy this Christmas gift!

Thank you very much !

I hope you will have much time in future to improve G&G core on MiST.
In the meanwhile i wish to thank you for your support to the MiST community

Hi!

Very nice reimplementation, authentic retro feeling, already well-playable!

Thanks for it again!

I've just tried it in my MiST, it's awesome! Very difficult game. The atari st version is horrible. The amiga looks like the arcade version, but it seems to be much less smooth (I've only looked at the amiga version on youtube at the moment).

The twitter account is working, it's just the first link in this thread which is no longer working.

Hope you can free some time in 2018 to work on more MiST projects!
