I liked the game back then on my A500. I think it already starts with a real nice selection of planes to choose from. Does anybody know if it runs with higher fps and correct gameplay speed on the A1200 or accelerated Amigas?

You can run it with whdload on the A1200, but there won't be much of an fps increase.

Never had an Amiga in my life, still enjoyed the video. From what I saw, it's a shame that Amiga failed.

Amiga never failed.........., Commodore let Amiga get buried in the emergence of PC's. And the Irony, Amiga Basic being created for Commodore by......... Microsoft.

Gorgeous game, but I always had trouble when closing on a target, it seemed to disappear under my arc of fire before I could do it much damage. Maybe just me.
@MrComputerRetro29 күн бұрын
Target detection can be a bit odd in this game, but I don't remember experiencing what what you describe. Generally, weapons have a min and max range; maybe you're closing in too fast, passing Rmin?
@000Angus00029 күн бұрын
@@MrComputerRetro I think I would try and be sneaky and stand off from the target, popping up from behind hills or whatever, but in order to lock the target up, I'd need to nose down until it was acquired, which tended to end in a head on charge, and nothing remotely sneaky. :-)
@MrComputerRetro29 күн бұрын
Hehe, I see! It sounds related to the target acquisition problems then.

Towards the end of my amiga 500 years I was buying around 3 mags a month. Just for coverdisks & occasional type ins for Amos or something similar. But by then the content on some of the disks was limited or very brief demos of some game that I wasn't interested in, anyway. And yes, there was full priced offerings on disk but not all of those were something that you could jump straight in with. Looking back, they should have offered more coding content. Just like the majority of the 8bit mags did. Typing in small games/screen tricks/ game cheats made computer magazines more exciting.

This is how a retro review is done! Nice ambience with the setup and a good overview of the game. I have to check out the game some day if it runs on an Amiga 1200.

The backgrounds are magnificent, the graphics are amazing, the characters are brilliant, and the soundtrack 🎵🎶 is stunning 😺👍🕹️. And this video deserves a big retrospective like from Vantaa, Finland 🇫🇮. Thank you 😺👍🕹️.

All this does is remind me of the depressing lack of content that was there. I don't have much rose-tinted-glasses for most of this time to be honest. The magasine covers while artistic and vibrant really didn't say a lot and the CDs never held much of value. Didn't stop me buying most of them though.
@MrComputerRetroАй бұрын
Times may not have been rosy then indeed, but we didn't view the Amiga as a retro platform, the way we do now. An expanded A1200 still had me covered for everyday use, as I didn't have (or need) a PC at home. It was my computer.
