Longshot but anyone remember these amiga games?

Drukk · 5 Apr 2008 at 21:01

I just felt like playing some amiga games for old times sake and as mines stuck up in the loft somewhere I decided to try an emulator.

Anyway, Im trying to remember the names of 2 games specifically. All I can remember of the first is it started off with 2 bolts of lightning in the middle of the night on the left side of the screen. I can't even remember if the game was any good!

The second game was a defender type which came with the amiga bundle at the time.

Anyone got any ideas what they were called?

Another world? - this had lightening in the intro.

yeah...I was going to guess another world. For the second one no idea. Always tempted to say mavity power/whatever it was called but prob not that.

Kipper67 · 5 Apr 2008 at 22:04

r-type for the second one?

That always seems to get a mention when people talk about sideways scroleets from that era.

Another world, thanks, thats the first one. The second one was n't r-type, it was virtually the same as defender but not called that.

Syndicate - the sole reason for me being a vindictive ******.

Another World was good but Flashback was even better.

Does anyone remember a game called 'It came from the desert' on the Amiga? It was basically about a town being invaded by giant ants. Its weird I think about that game every day. I have flashbacks of putting out a fire in a house in it and being chased in my car by a giant ant from a top down perspective. Freaks me out!

Sorry for the thread hijack!
