In Bussum 2005 and Nijmegen 2006 the brand new Dutch MSX development group RenovatiO demonstrated their upcoming game called Space Manbow 2. Named after Konami's classic (and MSX-only) shooter Space Manbow, the game aims to become a worthy successor to this all-time classic.

Although the game is currently still in development, the alpha-version already managed to impress many visitors of these meetings. If you missed out on these demonstrations, you can now look at a short preview movie of the game in action right here. In our MSX Forum several topics are dedicated to the development of this game, the most recent of which you can find over here.

It does look very nice idd... Smile

@norakomi: let me know if you want me to make a nice video-capture of a level. I have a capture card on my PC, and it shouldn't be too hard to make a vid that's synced nicely to the MSX output...
