Insanity: Berzerk Remake For TG-CD
August 20, 2009 2:00 PM | Eric Caoili
Homebrew development team Aetherbyte Studios has nearly completed its first PC Engine CD/TurboGrafx-CD game Insanity, a remake of Stern Electronics 1980 arcade release Berzerk (which saw console ports for the Atari 2600, 5200, and Vectrex). Aetherbyte plans to have it professionally pressed as a Super CD with case inserts and a manual.
Insanity's premise doesn't venture far from its source material: "You are trapped in a robot infested labyrinth on a distant planet. Your only hope of escape is to traverse room after room in search of the way out!"
You can watch newly released test footage of the game below, but note that it lacks sound effects and shows a bug that the developer is currently working to squash.

This looks great! I'd love to be able to stuff this into an emulator and play it on a portable. We need more Berzerk in the 21st century.
Sadly, I have no TG-CD hardware. An iPhone port would be completely awesome ...
