Hi, all, Are there good examples of non-konami games with a good level of quality (like konami did), manufactured by spanish sw houses like dinamic etc. (Excluding compile, or other japanese sw makers)?
In most of the times they ported zx spectrum games to msx with performances problems due to different video hw.
Relevo, Karoshi and some opera games. Imanok, Nerlaska, etc. Or do you mean back in the day.
yes, i was mean back in '80 era. Today there are some good examples of games that are better than those in '80.
My Idea is there was no so much efforts and some similarity with spectrum video gfx performances lead to low quality games, so i try to recall some exceptions.
A common example of a MSX-exclusive by a spanish company is "Temptations" although perhaps the jumping noise is a bit too much hehe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srQ3FO_0h6E
Interestingly it was released in 1991, shortly before all Spanish (and European) companies making software for 8bit home computers went bankrupt and, at a time, when 99,9999% of commercial MSX games made in Spain were Spectrum ports. If it were a Spectrum conversion you would expect something like this running at about 25% slower speed:
May be the post title should have been "Games from european sw houses mainly spain" where the msx version looks different from a straight ZX spectrum port.
