Detailed Description
APIDYA - A very special retro shoot 'em up buzzes into view!
1992's home computer legend Apidya is making a comeback in this authentic 24-bit pixel remake, built from the ground up, but utterly faithful to the original.
Take flight in Apidya' Special!
Brought back through sheer Pixel Passion!
Developed by the original team, together with a devoted Apidya super-fan-turned-developer, Apidya’ Special is based on a previously abandoned 1990s console port, combining original assets with all-new pixel art, additional authentic sound effects, and remixed music. Legendary composer Chris Hülsbeck contributes an exclusive, completely rearranged soundtrack that has never been released before.
The warmth and charm of a CRT on modern screens!
Players can experience Apidya’ Special in true widescreen with new parallax effects or switch to the original home computer 4:3 mode that looks, plays, and sounds exactly like 1992. Optional CRT effects with simulated shadow mask, scan lines, and phosphor bloom recreate the classic display feel.
The Features:
Authentic Remake – Completely rebuilt from scratch; no emulation.
Two Visual Modes – Seamlessly switch between HD widescreen or original home computer 4:3 presentation.
Exclusive Chris Hülsbeck OST – Newly arranged soundtrack alongside remixed and classic tracks.
Retro Visual Effects – Optional CRT shaders, bloom, and authentic scanline simulation.
Expanded Worlds – 5 diverse themed worlds (Meadow, Pond, Sewers, Cyber, Lair), up to 5 levels each, 20 unique bosses, and hidden special stages.
Fresh Surprises – Randomized in-game events like “Night Mode” with new enemy sprites.
Co-op Mode – Second player controls one of the helper drones.
Accessibility Options – Modernized difficulty settings to make the game enjoyable for all generations (including the original devs').
