FLOOD is a legendary classic game for the Amiga 😺👍🕹️. I played it a lot on my Amiga 500. One thing, that amuses me, is that, when you use a flame thrower, sometimes it turns into a rubber chicken 😹. And since i loved playing STORMLORD on my Amiga 500, i would definitely like to look for DELIVERANCE: STORMLORD II. 😺👍🕹️
Those sprites in Deliverance are massive. Some bosses are so big it's hard to imagine Amiga could handle them. And she does it easliy. It truly was an amazing system.
I'd totally forgotten Resolution 101, but when I saw it, I remembered I played it back in the day. Have to try that again... Also, MegaBall (one of the versions) is always one of the first games I install when I install new OS on my Amigas... Great vid! Also, Flink runs great on any AGA Amiga with WHDLOAD... It's the reason I finally bought a CD32 type controller. ;-)
Thanks! And I gotta get into the WHDload eventually. I've been thinking about it for couple of years now but just can't seem to find time. And that would make everything easier - playing games and recording the footage.
Storm Master made me scared as a small boy as my father was playing it and the animation when someone from your council died frightened me. It is refreshing to see what it actually was about. I also played Flood, but didn't fully understood the ghost mechanic, thanks for clearing that up.
Loving this series! Amazing that indeed after playing 100s of games there is still stuff out there I've never seen before. Thank god for WHDLoad, I'll surely play some of your recommendations.
Same here. Quite a lot of these I've learned about while working on these videos. But Amiga had a very strong Public Domain scene, so I wouldn't be surprised if these small series would get into double digits eventually. :)
Well the Amiga was used to control a Video Toaster for special effects. Some people seem to think that’s putting the Amiga down but it’s really not, after all the Amiga was used to control a Video Toaster! I have to find Resolution 101, it looks so impressive. I assume it’s AGA only? Statix is one I’ve actually played a lot & really deserves a modern rerelease, although their doesn’t need to be many changes beyond a resolution & texture bump. Flood is another one I must check out as it’s new to me. Megaball V3 is indeed one I should not skip! Even though Arachnoid is the OG, because my first home gaming platform was the ZX Spectrum I still think of Through the Wall as the original. It came with every new Spectrum. Actually Spectrums came with a tape containing quite a lot of software, including games. Lost in Mine? Lost in your what? I’m sorry about that pun, I’ll see myself out. 😅 The Misadventures of Flink looks fantastic. The CD32 should have been bigger than it was. Old video game titles were picked by throwing a dictionary in to a wood chipper & catching the first thing that floats down. I assume? Excellent video, I’m at a point where your videos have actually given me too many games to try for the first time but that’s a great thing, thanks.
Well, Amiga was responsible for most visual effects in Star Trek Voyager and Babylon 5. Some may dismiss it, but I think it's pretty impressive actually. Given that Voyager actually run until 2001. Resolution 101 actually runs on any Amiga with 1MB of RAM, so if you have 500, you're good to go. :) All 4 Megaball games were actually pretty good. 3 was the first that also supported AGA, so I though it may be worth highlighting out of all of them. Don't worry about he pun, I'm the king of cringe. xD Flink actually does not look like an Amiga game. I don't want to diss the system, I'm just saying that it looks like a SNES title and not something that was released on the Ami. And good that you keep finding something new to play and test out, that's the point of these Obscure games videos. What I've learned making them is that while some games may be rare and generally unknown, they sometimes have quite a cult following within the few individuals that actually do know of them. And that some games are difficult to place on a well known to obscure spectrum. Deluxe Galaga for instance, while it was a shareware title and not tripple A release, it somehow gained quite a big following. Was it big enough to consider it popular - I don't know. So, while I love the game to bits, it will not land in any of the videos in the series. If I was to make one for PC in the future, then Warblade, being a modern(-ish) remake of Deluxe Galaga would definitely secure a spot in a video. As given how big Windows gaming market was by the time it released it was generally speaking a very little known game.
The two Amiga games that I don't seem to notice anyone talking about ever were Fire Power, a PvP tank game, and Arctic Fox, where you pilot a super tank against aliens at the south pole.
There are some good games here :) I like the thinking behind Transplant's password system; it would make that sort of game less frustrating and allow players to experience more of it without needing to put in a sweaty-gripped, laser-focused performance.
I find the choice of a password system odd for the Amiga, since it comes with floppy drive built in (not to mention hard drive was pretty much standard in North America). It made sense for the C64 in countries where floppy drives weren't common, since saving to tape was an annoying and haphazard procedure. But with a floppy drive, game saves were quick and easy.
Most if not all strategies, management/ business simulations and RPGs (and a large chunk of adventure games) had a save game feature on the Amiga? But arcade games for ever reason nearly never did.
@@IsaacKuo Saving to floppy is more time consuming and uses floppy disk space for little advantage with this sort of game - any game with levels always used a password system. Perhaps for games with very long levels it would make some sense to be able to save during the level, but I think that didn't apply to most games of that type. What's more, there might not be a useful point at which to load back into a level, i.e. there may be too many dangers around the player, no lull in the action making it safe to save the game. Also, the intention of the programmers might be for the player to try to complete a level in one go. Other types of game, like Civilization for example, used a regular save to disk system on the Amiga because they weren't a game with stage/levels to complete, it wasn't too do with a lack of means for saving the game.
@@danyoutube7491 Uh, it takes way less time for the Amiga to save a tiny game save file than it takes for the end user to copy down that password. I played a ton of Amiga games with levels, and NONE of them used a password system.
Sure I do. I've been there when that happened, I was two towers away to the left. He was actually shouting "Bring me a clean pair of breaches, Susan! It happened again!" No idea what he meant though. ;)
Nice video! I find some of your points incorrect. Resolution 101 and Flood were widely reviewed with a good score on release, so I wouldn't call them obscure. Just unusual premises and a bit different gameplay. Deliverance has excellent graphics and animation. Breakout pioneered, not Arkanoid. I'm sure there was a clone with upgrades on 8-bit (or early PC, same thing) before the original arcade release.
I suppose obscurity is kinda based on the region too, but I'm not gonna dispute the Breakout / Arkanoid thing. Breakout might've been an earlier title. Though I always preferred Arkanoid, so that's probably why I'm coming back to it. A mistake on my side, I suppose. On the other hand, before Doom we had Wolfenstein and probably 2-3 other games and yet we called them all Doom-clones... Nevermind. Potato potato tomato tomato apple samsung. ;) Still, thanks for watching and commenting. :)
Oh, I love the look of Lost in Mine! I wish there were more Amiga games with tiny sprites like that. I would have loved playing Lost in Mine back in the day. Here in the USA, I think HoverForce and Megaball were well known. Actually, when you first showed Resolution 101 I thought, "Wow, that's a blatant ripoff of HoverForce." Then as the gameplay showed I thought, "Wow, this is just a shameless hack of HoverForce." Then you mentioned "HoverForce" and I realized, "Oh, this is just HoverForce." HoverForce was published by Accolade, a major game brand here in the USA, so it's not surprising for this game to have had lots of ads and publicity here in the USA. I dunno about Megaball. I played the heck out of it and loved it, but it did lack my favorite Arkanoid powerup - multi-ball.
I suppose you know about Benefactor from one of the previous videos? Also a tiny character and believe it or not, even better game than Lost in Mine. I'm in Europe which most likely is no surprise given my accent and all but I've never heard a word about Hoverforce/Resolution 101 back then.
@@OldAndNewVideoGames Yes, but I actually did not notice Benefactor until years later. It's not quite the sort of game I would have been into playing, because "escort missions" were frustrating to me at the time. Well, they still are, but I'm more open to different sorts of gameplay paradigms than I used to be.
@@IsaacKuo Not many come to mind ad hoc. But maybe The Adventures of Robin Hood? The character there is literally few pixels in size too, and it's a pretty decent take on adventuring with slightly off putting controls that require getting used to.
Statix looks pretty nice. Just when you complete a set of 3, you realise it disappears, so you have to account for the scales tipping the other way. Cool mechanics. :) The Misadventures of Flink is pretty looking and all, but... Is it just me or are you playing as the villain? I mean, all those vikings (let's call them that due to the clothing and helmets) are just going about their business and Flink picks up fights with them unprovoked. He steals treasures that are obviously not his own. I'm half expecting Flink's mother to show up and give him a good scolding. XD
@@OldAndNewVideoGames Hmm, I guess if I take a few steps back, squint and alternatively close one eye, they start to look like lemmings. There are those with a little rucksack who look like the stair builders. :D
Resolution 101 was one of those childhood games that I started to wonder if I imagined because I couldn't find any reference to it after I forgot the name. I ended up finding out what it was again because of r/tipofmyjoystick.
Does it still play as good as it did back then? I'm asking cause there's plenty games I loved in the past, and now I don't particularly care for now for one reason or another. Not all games age the same, is what I'm saying. ;)
@@OldAndNewVideoGames I actually haven't played it again, partly because I find Amiga emulation a little intimidating. I do a lot of retro-DOS gaming instead, and often find myself missing the superior Amiga versions of games like Shufflepuck Cafe and Roadwar 2000.
@@arturick673 Oh man... You're missing on so much. I have a video on my channel, it's an older one (from last year) but it shows how fast and easy Amiga emulation can be.

@@OldAndNewVideoGames earlish CD based gaming.. the Amiga CD32 and Mega CD were out at similar times.. it wasn't till the Saturn and PlayStation people got it and CD based gaming took off. CD32 came out in-between the Mega CD and PlayStation.. it was strange times.
@@bit-ishbulldog2089 Yep, releasing Sega32X in the same time as Saturn was not the smartest choice, same way as releasing rehashed console hardware of CD32 instead of completing the AAA chip and hitting the market with actually competitive hardware. But whatever is said about the choices, you're right, these were strange and interesting times.
@@OldAndNewVideoGames the 32X was the decision of SEGA of America not Japan, Japan was creating the Saturn at the time.

@@bit-ishbulldog2089 I think that Nintendo started off with playing cards even before they did toys... Oh well, glad to know you're into SEGA, cause I wanna release a similar series for it as I did for Amiga, DOS and are in the process of recording for C64. So, "10 Years of Sega Genesis/Megadrive Gaming" where in a span of 10 episodes I'll cover best/most interesting/odd games for the system released over 10 most active years for the system. A year per episode. 1989 to 1998. Although I feel that the last few years will be very short and feature games mainly from South America. ;) Or I could roll Master System and Genesis into one video covering 1986 to 1995... We'll see.
