A downloadable zx spectrum remix game

THE PLOT

The Evil Alien reveals his typically dastardly plan: Earth must submit to his terms or he will propel a hollowed-out asteroid the size of a small planet into Earth. DARE flys to the asteroid in his advanced spaceship. Arriving at the asteroid he finds small buildings and structures and realise it must be inhabited. DARE is lowered down to the asteroid's surface. Once again, Earth is relying on him to defeat the Evil Aliens.

Heavily based on a 1986 Video Game by Virgin Games for the ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC and Commodore 64 systems.'

This is my modern 'remix' of the classic speccy version..

[Early Alpha prototype stage, Coming eventually to Windows]

Hey, Thanks for the Interest..

I am still working on DARE, slowly.. because..

Back in march i thought it would be a good idea to ask permission first from the owners,

Ive never asked permission for a known IP before so im unsure if it takes this long for a license, or they know its a 'fangame' and arnt taking me seriously, Time will tell...

there might need to be a Plan B ...

cheers mate - aye best to keep yourself right.  I know there have been two  old pc fanmade games - one called dan dare by Ovine (c64 one)  and another called can care, which was a remake of the speccy one, but can't find it anywhere.  Be a shame if never released - good luck  -  Should add, rather than charcging a fee (which would perhaps stop you getting permission) you could do a donation to 'buy you a coffee' etc. Personally think most folk would donate anyway.

Cheers for the help, the first logical step i took was to just call it DARE, but that still seems a bit too 'obvious' ..
Ive a few ideas, but im still being patient at the mo, think im going to post something on reddit soon ..

looks fire anyway mate - wish I had your talent, I'd do so many old remakes, just tweaking them like you are for a modern look (and no colour clash lol)  but keeping that 'feel' in the asthetics and adding modern sound effects.  Somethings like speccy versions of  Exploding fist, etc.  Anyway back on topic, hope you get to finish it.  cheers
