Actually arctic shipwreck is a great idea... very creative and sure some tricky math involved... :). I like that one!

Why is weird Pooyan? Is a porting of a Konami arcade game of the '80s. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pooyan#Ports

I would not call most of these particularly weird, pretty straightforward platform and arcade games. You want to go really weird, try the game based on "The Young Ones" or "Frankie Goes to Hollywood", now those were weird!
@JohnDoeGaming20216 күн бұрын
Frankie Goes to Hollywood is a weird game, and maybe one that most people know of. So I ruled it out from this video.

The only one of these I played was Human Killing Machine, which was more crap from Tiertex. Other bad games; Outrun - Horrible, choppy framerate. Powerdrift - Horrible choppy framerate. Space Harrier - Seems OK at first until you realize that all the enemy shots move way too fast. The speech and sound effects sound nothing like the arcade version, the "ceiling" is missing in one of the later levels and the whole thing just feels shoddy. Alien Syndrome - What's here is actually a decent conversion of the arcade game, but they left out two of the levels! The scrolling also needed work. The Running Man - Very slow and choppy movement makes trying to hit enemies an exercise in frustration. Dark Castle - Everyone regarded this as a joke. The "hero" trips over everything, can't jump a gap more than a foot wide and gets dizzy at the drop of a hat. Add in limited ammo, respawning enemies and the silliest sound effects ever included in a video game and it all adds up one really bad game. The sequel is just as bad. Quiksilver Pinball - Terrible pinball game, Power Pinball - Promised a pinball construction set, but the program was buggy and never felt anything like pinball.

Welcome back, John 😺👍🕹️! THE GREAT GIANA SISTERS 3 exists 😹?! Oh my meowing God 😹! Also, i have to admit, that i still have HARD DRIVIN' for my Commodore 64 in a compilation called TNT (CiB, tape). I bought it from a local retro game store in Tikkurila, Vantaa (Finland 🇫🇮) in October 2022, and that was the first time, i tried that game on my C64. It is absolutely worse 😹 than the Amiga version 😺👍🕹️. COMMODORE 64 FOREVER 😺👍🕹️! Press play on tape AMIGA FOREVER 😺👍🕹️! Insert disk 2 Greetings from Vantaa, Finland 🇫🇮.
