Short:        Raptor: Call of the Shadows
Author:       Marcin Bednarczyk "Raybeez"
Uploader:     cichy cichy com pl
Type:         game/shoot
Version:      0.9.9-rc.1
Requires:     ahi.device, RTG (Picasso96 or CyberGraphX) or AGA
Architecture: m68k-amigaos >= 3.1
Distribution: Aminet

AmigaOS 3.x port of Raptor: Call of the Shadows, a classic 2D vertical
scrolling shooter. This port is based on the open-source reverse-engineered
codebase by skynettx/raptor and targets 68030/68060-class Amiga systems
with RTG graphics (Picasso96 / CyberGraphX) or native AGA.

The game renders in a fixed 320x200, 8-bit paletted mode on a dedicated
screen. Four native m68k binaries are provided:

- raptor         : 68060 with FPU (recommended)
- raptor_nofpu   : 68060/68EC060/68LC060 soft-float
- raptor_030_fpu : 68030 with external 68881/68882 FPU
- raptor_030     : 68030 soft-float

Sound effects are played through AHI (ahi.device) at the native 11025 Hz
16-bit stereo rate. Music can be played via several backends:

- ADLIB  : lightweight OPL3 emulation (mixed into the AHI stream)
- CAMD   : General MIDI via camd.library (external synth / software synth)
- MHI    : MP3 music via hardware decoder (e.g. Prisma MegaMix, MAS, Delfina)
- WAVE   : pre-decoded WAV files mixed into the AHI stream

No music backend is enabled by default; enable explicitly with MUSIC=ADLIB,
MUSIC=CAMD, MUSIC=MHI or MUSIC=WAVE.

Graphics can be selected with GFX=AUTO|RTG|AGA. The RTG path uses either
Picasso96 or CyberGraphX, trying P96 first, then CGX, then a fallback
320x240x8 mode with letterbox on cards lacking 320x200. The AGA path uses
a custom 68060 chunky-to-planar converter with cached bitmap for better
performance.

Keyboard, mouse and joystick/CD32 pad input work simultaneously. Workbench
icon ToolTypes are supported (GFX, MUSIC, MOUSE, JOYSTICK, etc.). Persistent
audio volumes are stored in amiga.cfg in the game directory.

This is release candidate 0.9.9-rc.1, the final pre-release before the
planned 1.0 version. Full gameplay has been tested on real hardware
(A2000 with CyberVision 64/3D, A1200 with PiStorm/Emu68, A4000 with
Picasso IV) and in WinUAE.

This project is an AI collaboration: development and documentation were
assisted by AI tools, with final decisions, testing and integration done
by the author.

Original game data files (full v1.2) are required and not included.
See README_AMIGA.md inside the archive for detailed setup, controls,
parameters and troubleshooting.
