Description
In the peaceful world of Antland, a sinister threat has befallen the ant colony. The evil army known as Antsplash has invaded their territory, kidnapping all the valuable eggs. In the midst of chaos, Nita, an ant with the incredible ability to fly, becomes their only hope.
Nita bravely ventures into the Antsplash headquarters, facing deadly dangers at every corner. To succeed, she must skillfully dodge the sharp spikes that threaten to pierce her and overcome the enemy soldiers who attempt to eliminate her.
The game takes place in a challenging platform environment, where Nita must showcase her dexterity and agility in every jump and movement. Spikes and the soldiers of the Antsplash army are the obstacles to overcome, and Nita must use her flight and wit to navigate around them and make progress.
Are you ready to take on the challenge and guide Nita through this world plagued with deadly perils? Demonstrate your skills in the controls and help Nita confront the soldiers and evade the spikes in her courageous quest to free the eggs. The fate of Antland and the hope of the colony rest in your hands. Go forth, winged hero!
Your enemies
The primary adversary is the Antsplash army, composed of various types of members that we will introduce below:
The spray to kill ants: Infused with lethal poison designed to exterminate insects, any contact with one of them will result in immediate fatality.
The electric racket: Mere contact will deliver a jolt of electric current, potentially incapacitating you. It's advisable to avoid touching it if your aim is to stay alive.
The wasp: The natural antagonist of ants, these flies hover over certain situations. To ensure your survival, it's best to steer clear of them.
The spider: Residing within the barracks' darkest corners, they won't permit you to pass unscathed if they succeed in capturing you.
The skewers: Exercise caution around them, as touching them will lead to your demise. The Antsplash army strategically positions them as traps.
The acid pool: This tank serves as the storage for the acid used in their energy extraction machines.
Your mission
Your objective is to retrieve all the abducted ant eggs. These eggs are situated in various chambers within the Antsplash quarters, positioned atop energy-generating apparatuses. Along the way, you'll also come across additional items that aid in accomplishing your mission and accruing points.
The ant eggs: Recover all of them, and you will have successfully fulfilled your mission. Furthermore, you will be awarded points for each egg you manage to retrieve.
The first aid kit: Discovering a first-aid kit and successfully collecting it grants you an additional life and temporary immunity for a brief duration. Keep in mind that your control panel can't accommodate more than 3 lives. Thus, if you already possess 3 lives, obtaining one of these kits won't yield significant benefits. It's essential to learn how to ration them effectively.
The coins: Earn points for every coin you collect. You'll observe your score increase on your control panel.
The keys: Each key will grant you access to a solitary door. Exercise careful consideration in selecting the door you intend to unlock with each of them.

A great new platformer for the Amstrad. I also included it in my new "Gameplay of New Amstrad CPC games, April-December 2024" video, along with other new Amstrad CPC games. I hope you enjoy the video.
Very nice game. It's a shame, though, that you can apparently only play it with the keyboard. Our German-language review can be found in our recorded livestream starting at 03:54:46. English subtitles are also available. Subscription to our YouTube and Twitch channel is welcome. 🙂
Thanks you very much Radio PARALAX for having played with Nita and for your review. I'm delighted that you enjoyed it and I guess I tend to remember the inconvenience of the joystick for my future adventures.
Enhorabuena por esta revisión del ya gran clásico NITA, que esta vez nos traes a todo color!! Un complemento perfecto e ideal para ese juegazo que te marcaste el año pasado! Felicidades!!
Muchas gracias vidaextra! Me alegra mucho que te haya gustado!!! Y gracias por tu video, encantado de aparecer en tu canal!!! 😊
With colour looks definetly better than the last one.
Thank you AMSTRAD MAN!!!
Cool game - ver. color
Thank you Saberman!!
Me encanta Nita!
Un juego divertidisimo. Con una curva de dificultad muy ajustada. El estilo gráfico me parece acertadisimo. Solo le pongo un pequeño pero, el apartado sonoro. Pero es por comentarte un apartado mejorable (que también es necesario). Los personajes del juego me encantan. Tanto Nita, como los enemigos. Creo que mi favorito es el spray matainsectos.
No soy usuario de CPC. Pero cuando supe de tu juego compre la digital y lo juego emulado. Ayer me llego la versión física. A ver si reparo un CPC que tengo por casa, para jugarlo en la maquina real.
DCLive72 muchas gracias por tus palabras y por haber comprado la versión fisica de Nita de matranet, espero que lo disfrutes mucho!
Un abrazo!
Felicidades por tu juego. Lo acabo en el canal de Juanje. Se aprecia todo el esfuerzo que tiene detrás.
Es genial ver hoy en día nuevos desarrollos para máquinas de hace 40 años.
Gran labor también por parte del profesor Fran Gallego de enseñar ensamblador en sus clases, porque ayuda a entender abstracciones que se emplean en lenguajes de más alto nivel.
¡Enhorabuena por el trabajo!
Muchas gracias Retrobensoft! La verdad es que sí, es genial que sigan saliendo juegos nuevos para nuestros viejos ordenadores!!!
