Project-X was released in 1992 by Team17 and developed by Team17 for the Commodore Amiga. It stands as one of the defining titles in the machine's legendary 16-bit software library, and remains a favourite among retro computing enthusiasts, demosceners and digital preservationists.
A challenging horizontal shoot-'em-up with impressive graphics and a memorable soundtrack. Its difficulty and polish made it a notable Team17 title.
On the Amiga, the game made full use of the machine's custom chipset â the Agnus blitter, Denise video processor and Paula 4-channel sound synthesizer â to deliver smooth, fast-scrolling 2D playfield graphics and rich sampled audio that set it apart from IBM PC DOS CGA/EGA systems and 8-bit home micros of its time. Its responsive joystick control scheme and polished presentation made it an essential experience for the platform.
