With it's Sinclair Spectrum vibe and
isometric madness, IWasAdam spills the
beans on his stonking hit: VivaMortis.
Well, the inspiration was the recent SyntaxBomb competition:
'8 Bit Wars'. I decided on the spectrum because I liked the
palette and had a spectrum back in the day. I also wanted to
see how far I could push things while keeping the same look
and feel.
The isometric was a no-brainer because I loved all the
Ultimate hits: 'Knightlore', 'Alien8', etc. My first thought was
to update 'SaberWulf' to isometric and while this was going
well, other Syntax bomb members felt that the main
SaberMan character should have a more unique look. So he
got covered and then became Mortis.
