Hi,
these guys are working on 8-bit like, ZX-eseque platform game, what's really cool about it is monochrome graphics.
It's originally for Amiga, but there are planned ports for C64, Atari XL/XE and such. I asked them about B&W Macs, but sadly they dont have any Mac coders, so someone skilled could drop them a line.

Do you think a basic 68000@8mhz without any custom graphics chips could handle this?

Tony - This demo for the Commodore Amiga by Monochrome Productions looks super!

we have recently been informed by Saberman, that a new demo has been teased called 'Tony' by Monochrome Productions!

I didn't see any scrolling, and only a few sprites at a time.

It's similar to Dark Castle and Prince of Persia, which run fine on a 68000.

I did see some shots of tracker music in the video, which the 68000 will have trouble with.

Music would have to be pre-rendered to maintain decent performance.

hello, I'm the author of this game, I don't see any problem to make it for Mac mono ... if there is a programmer who wants to write this game for MAC, please write to valkiriadublin@gmail.com

This would be neat. The game reminds me a little bit of Montezuma's Revenge. Especially the skull.

TONY game is more interesting, it has 6 different levels, each level has different graphics. Montezuma's Revenge is a very simple game. more
