Street Fighter 2 Update and New Otter Adventures

There isn't much news today, but it's interesting :) So, let's start with the fact that update 1.1 for Street Fighter 2 has been released, the TS Config version of which was developed by the ZX Evolution team. This update fixes the "bug" that allowed you to kill any opponent using low kicks. Now it won't work so easily. The updated version also adds the ability to select a difficulty level in the game menu. You can choose between a very easy mode (Easy) and a moderately difficult one (Normal). Additionally, a new game situation "draw" has been introduced. The point is that if at the end of a round both fighters have the same amount of energy, that round will have to be replayed – no one is awarded the win. The team also announced a special bonus for those who purchased this game for money. After some time, several exclusive versions of the game will be raffled among these lucky ones, which will include, among other things, a new game mode. This version of the game will be delivered personally to each recipient by Email; it will not be publicly available. It's not too late to take part.

About new games

The ZX Evolution team also decided to delight us all with news about new games, some of which are in testing and will be released next month. So, what are these games? There are three of them, can you imagine!

"An Otter Named Camino" is an RPG-style game with a "top-down/front" view – a full-color game for the classic ZX Spectrum 128. We have a whole bunch of screenshots from the game at our disposal, but we'll publish only one :) According to the authors, the game is "almost ready."

"The Land of Shurshes" is a side-view adventure quest designed for the TS Config platform and is a logical continuation of the game "The Land of Rustles: Otter and Smoker." There is no information about the game's readiness yet, and screenshots haven't slipped past me either ))

"Iron Crisis" is the working title of a new game in the Realtime Strategy (RTS) genre. Apparently, the game will be released in monochrome format for classic machines, but will require a turbo mode. That's all that is known about it so far. By the way, if you want to follow the development of these games (and maybe even take part), check out the team's official page on Boosty. There you can read news firsthand, as well as support the guys morally and financially.

About support

And yes, by the way, I also have a page for financial support :) Since the very first line of ZXOnline code, this service has been working for the benefit of game developers, which is why all funds from game purchases (minus mandatory expenses for transfers and taxes) go directly to the game authors – I keep nothing for myself. That's why I created my own Boosty page, where you can support me personally. A little financial motivation will give me the opportunity to spend more time developing ZXOnline and other services related to the ZX Spectrum (and I have plenty of ideas, I'll tell you all about them there). Thanks in advance! Well, that's probably all for today. Have a good weekend!
