It was an old Amstrad CPC game. 



ain't that some shit. I watched their video again and the beginning shows the OG game, but it went by so fast, I didn't really pay attention the first time around.

Looks like they did a decent up conversion/port thingie

yeah, but they ripped off art from other games severely, so that is kind of lame.

So if you rip off a homebrew and put it in another homebrew, besides moral obligations, is it considered legally wrong?

like, take a sprite sheet and use that or use existing sprite sheets as template and redraw the sprites?

The cartoon girl at the beginning looks familiar, I want to say she belongs to Metal Slug, but that's just pure speculation.

They didn't rip off another homebrew.

They ripped off Coryoon. 

a commercial PC Engine game.

That's because of how it's played (grid based, evading enemies, collecting items) and the Egyptian theme, not because of close similarities in the artwork.

Yeah.  But, since it came out before this, WE RIPPED THEM OFF.
kinda, not really.

its a different type of game.

(Read: Not as fun! BWHAHAHAHA)

It's not bad though.   I watched a bunch of videos.  It does look like it would be fun if I had an Amstrad.
