Leander is the only game on this list that Psygnosis actually developed but I guess people just really remember that logo (although I personally associate it more with the PlayStation specifically the WipEout series) and it was usually found on decent games. Hired Guns and Lemmings are the only two on the list I ever remember playing on my Amiga 600 (I have a habit of missing out on titles that seem to define a platform) and I never knew what the hell I was doing in Hired Guns but I loved loading it up.
@fromwithinuk4 жыл бұрын
Leander was by Travellers Tales, but Psygnosis was not just a publisher, it was also a development resource. For example, Wiz 'n' Liz was originally made for the Megadrive by Martyn Chudley who was a third-party developer, but when he made it he was in our office programming it every day..The graphics were all done by one of our in-house artists. The Amiga conversion was programmed externally, but I wrote the sound effects synthesizer and created the sounds. So is that a "developed by Psygnosis" game? I also made levels for Hired Guns. There were always contributions from the in-house developers, sometimes small, sometimes large.
