Toki was an awesome arcade shooter platformer that was released in 1989 by Akira Sakuma for multiple systems such as the NES, Sega Mega Drive, Atari Lynx, Atari ST, Amiga, and Commodore 64. In the game, you played as an enhanced ape transformed from a human that could shoot energy balls from his mouth to defeat strange creatures and an evil wizard. A remastered version of the game is currently in development for the C64!
TOKI CHARACTER SPRITES FIRST TEST!!
Over 20 months in the making, and now, just like EA Sports says, IT’S IN THE GAME!!
Please note it’s just the very first test, so there are several #Toki sprites still missing and alignment to fix. @C64Reposts @Indie_RetroNEWS pic.twitter.com/6t4p5JbMc6— Davide Bottino (@DavideBottino) November 21, 2024
According to the Facebook page, Toki C64 Remastered will feature redesigned enemies from the arcade game released by Ocean in 1991. It will include redrawn sprites, improved backgrounds, new music and sound effects, enhanced controls, bug fixes, and will be available as a free download.
We are excited to see the progress of Toki C64 Remastered and look forward to a potential release in late 2024 or 2025!
