The author: “Cobra on the ZX Spectrum was one of my all time favourite games, and as I’ve been experimenting with AI, I thought I’d attempt a conversion to PC using Claude and Meshy. After quite a bit of tweaking here we are.
As a part of this I recreated the music in Bitwig as well (not AI), although you can choose between this, the original and the C64 version (Which was on Arkanoid).
The game is the original Joffa Smith classic, through and through. Its logic was ported routine by routine from a disassembly of the Spectrum code, and it runs at the original speed with the same levels, enemies, timings, weapons, hamburgers, Ingrid and the Night Slasher.”
And there’s a choice of how it looks and sounds:
– CLASSIC: the Spectrum, pixel for pixel, with the original beeper sound emulated
– NEW: generated characters and scenery built from the original map, parallax backgrounds, an updated status bar, smooth movement at any refresh rate up to 4K, and new sound.
– F2 flips between the two at any time
