Various overlooked Amiga games from recent years
Despite constant coverage of new games, preview videos and demo versions, it sometimes happens that a game slips under our radar and is not reviewed by us. We have therefore searched through the Indie Retro News archives and compiled a list of titles that have not yet been featured on amiga-news.de:
Crimbo (video) is a single-screen platformer in which Santa Claus must collect all the Christmas presents. The remake of a 2010 ZX Spectrum release requires any Amiga with 1.5 MB RAM.
The AMOS game Bulbmaster (video) is a Sokoban variant: some objects roll until they hit an obstacle and must be disposed of in holes on the playing field, while others serve merely as buffers and must be positioned skilfully.
WackoPac (video) is a Pac-Man clone in which players earn their power pills in a bonus game designed as a shooter. The current version took sixth place in the Function 2023 Game Dev Compo, an AGA implementation was still being considered in 2023.
Christian 'TheoTheoderich' Wiegels' debut work Caves & Cargo (video) is inspired by classics such as Gravity Force and Thrust: the aim is to recover a growing number of freight containers from winding caves. In addition to a hard drive, you will also need two megabytes RAM, half of which needs to be chip RAM.
"Hidden gems of Ireland" (video) is a search for artefacts designed with Backbone that attempts to convey real knowledge about castles in Ireland and the coins and objects found there. The download is available via Google Drive. The author presented his title in a thread on the Polish forum PPA.pl. (cg)
