Awesome to see public domain games get some more love! Reminds me of Amoeba Invaders, which was just a straight Space Invaders clone, but extremely faithful.
Awesome vid as ever... Gonna have to check out Alianator, never heard of it before, but looks great. One great game beginning with A on the Amiga that I never hear talked about is "Asteroids II v0.92 (1993-03-20)(Seifert, Mike)". An asteroids game were you fight lots of differing enemies, and a big boss on level 6.
Alienator... That was the name, used to have it back in the days. Played it endlessly, smooth graphics back then. I have forgotten about the name as I was on the look out for it. Then I see your upload and I thought well maybe he put it in there but probably not. And there it was number 2! Thanks for the info I needed, very happy with that.
Nice list m8! some crackers! That Alan Border was better known as Graham Gooch World Class Cricket. Loved a good P&C game, I missed that Altered Destiny, looks good. Alien Bash games are cool, check out the 1st one, it was a coverdisk off The One mag I think? Aggression looks cool but has rage quit written all over it for me, lovely ship animation. Alien Fish Finger! we both know thats a hidden gem right there! Alianator does look great, I loved games like that bitd, deffo gone check it out. I rememeber you sending me that ACSYS demo ages back, pity it was never finished. Didn't realise this was the start of a series, nice
Ive actually been planning this series for ages and changed my mind so many times but want something to get my teeth into...i never knew Alan Border was Graham Gooch, the cricket game I used to play was Bryan Lara it was class. I love the steel drum music on Alan Border
Interesting list, as someone else has said Allan Border's Cricket is the same game as Graham Gooch's Cricket, just renamed for Australia. The team behind it would go on to write the Brian Lara games for Codemasters, basically. Aggression wasn't formally released either, there were plans for a CD32 version.
So glad your doing this series OSG. Cannot wait to see the rest of the Alphabet. Loved that you mentioned Xcopy. So many fond memories from using that copy disc. Hoping to see if Cannon Soccer makes the cut when you get to the C's. Excellent cover disc game.
Agree with @gumdeo. I was so disappointed when I found out that ACSYS was just a demo. It really played, looked and sounded amazing. Thanks for a great video OSG. 😀
Abuse I think it's a port from the MS-DOS PC where it was released to little fanfare at a time when 2D games were frowned upon. And the Amiga was dead in the water, so it's puzzling that it was even ported in the first place.
SWEET an air taxi clone for amiga! DEF getting this in my rotation. Hey are you going to make another Emulator series pack like you did for C64 for us Patrons?
Air Taxi was a fun little game, I did enjoy that a lot. I also liked Graham Gooch's Cricket (the same as Allan Border's with a different name) despite having virtually no fondness for the sport. There are some other interesting games there which I had never heard of (especially Abuse and the Fish Finger one). Aggression has nice graphics but that sort of game never really appealed to me, it would have pleased me a bit in the same way that Stardust did, showing some nice graphical mid-90s effects on the Amiga but not my cup of tea to actually play. Demo disks were a big part of my Amiga life as I was an avid purchaser of the monthly magazines, and there was a PD game whose name I cannot remember, but was tremendous fun for a while for me and my brother. I think it was two player only, and you each controlled a small figure on a single screen which you navigated via platforms. It was all about shooting your opponent, and there were all sorts of weapons, both familiar ones like pistols and shotguns and more fantastical ones. One such weapon was called "Lightbringer", though I cannot remember any other detail about it. My brother and I were impressed with the coolness of it, I think it was one of the most powerful weapons, and that's why I remember the name.
Great video as always buddy and i have never played any of these, that said last monday i was given a usb with 4221(4.8gig) whd files on it and there is a lot of stuff i have never seen games and demos so am going to be having a load of fun playing stuff. Looking forward to the next video so until then take it easy 🙂
Great content OSG. Loved my C64 and Amiga all those years ago😂. Have you ever done a Top 10/20 sports games on the Amiga? Those and racing games were my favourites. 9:02
You should check out the games Tangram, Slamtilt and Aladdin's magic lamp. I spent so much time in Tangram, great music and graphics. Aladdin's magic lamp was a game by new line cinema that is almost completely unknown to most people. Slamtilt was a really good pinball game with AGA graphics, but it came in 1996, pretty much at Amiga's deathbed. Could be the start of an inspiration for a follow-up video :)
@@pnvgordinho Far from it. Since the game came out in 1996, this was way after the Amiga "died". Only the hardcore's were still active. The first Playstation released in 1994, and Quake out on PC in 1996.
I think you could put in the list Alcatraz. Not many people played it and not many people like it, I dont know why. Its a bit short but its amazing. I once saw a famous UK youtuber playing it and she didn't know how to play and gave it a bad score. I commented saying she should watch some video of gameplay and try again. She didnt. Her lost.
Normally I would suggest Alfabet Smierci, but unfortunately this adventure game is only in polish. For next part of the series I would suggest games: Citadel (FPS), Doman (Golden Axe rip-off), Lost in Mine. Other interesting titles are point & clicks: Skaut Kwatermaster, Teenagent, Kajko i Kokosz, Mentor - unfortunately no english versions.
Creat Video, somehow I missed this. How did Alienbash 2 get away with that, seems to use the same assets as Chaos engine. Nice list some interesting games on it I shall have to look into. :p
If I fire up the Amiga emulator right now and had to choose Chaos Engine or Alien Bash 2, I would play Alien Bash. Not saying is better but I prefer to play it.
@@oldstylegaming yeah I suppose that’s valid. Though somehow I got impression from early talk in video that this specifically about titles of the era. My bad.
I can't say I have played any of these games, but I seem to remember the names of 2 of them. But Aggression reminds me of Menace of which I have played. Ahh, the old Amiga. I should dust off my old Amiga and try some of these on real hardware. Emulators are good, but there aint nuthin like the real thing.
👍😎👌 P.S. Do you observe higher interest in videos about 8-bit computers or about 16-bit computers? I'm wondering if to add 16-bit ones to my small channnel...
The most interest is definitely on the C64, then the Amiga and probably the Megadrive after that mate... but if you looking for the best one to feature its the c64 by a clear mile
X-Copy? Trading games on the playground?? Why, I'm sure I have no idea what you're talking about, good sir... Alien Bash looks quite a lot smoother than Chaos Engine, though still dropping frames, possibly due to the 50fps thing. I shall have to try that one. I hated that Chaos Engine was so 'jerky', that's how I described it at the time, I had no concept of framerate, I just knew some games were smooth and some were jerky. Even the A1200 and the 16-Bit console ports were jerky.
@@oldstylegaming thought it looked very similar. Not long set up my Amiga600 from Christmas '92 and there's a copy of said game waiting to be played when I get a few hours spare!
Please, don't fill this series of videos with CP Verlag or some other similar homebrewer like you did with C64. I think it's unfair to leave other games for those that might as well be hacks of existing games.

Oh excellent.... The A to Z on C64 was epic, and was a little ray of sunshine during Lockdown 3 ! Look forward to these 👍
Atomix isn't a bad little puzzle game, not sure if it is well known or not & ABC boxing had a decent career mode
Great list. A shame that ACSYS was never finished, it looks awesome.
I know, right? surely someone could pick that up
@@oldstylegaming Same for Ultra Core.

I lived Bryan Lara played it all the time

I spent years getting Cannon Soccer to work and then I wished I hadn't last year when that helicopter kept getting me on both levels.

Aggression's graphics and music already do look/sound somewhat familiar in style to Bloodhouse's much more famous game Stardust. Interesting list!
Excellent timing. I just got my first Amiga. Thank you 🎉
Cracking list there was a couple on there I'd never seen before. Cheers
#10 reminds me of 'Luner Lander' for the C64.
Finally you're back with your fantastic stuff! ❤
Abuse I think it's a port from the MS-DOS PC where it was released to little fanfare at a time when 2D games were frowned upon. And the Amiga was dead in the water, so it's puzzling that it was even ported in the first place.
SWEET an air taxi clone for amiga! DEF getting this in my rotation. Hey are you going to make another Emulator series pack like you did for C64 for us Patrons?
I can do yeah :-)
Aquanaut by Phil Ruston is a hidden gem that starts with A.
I'm not sure if it counts as a hidden gem, but Rainbow Art's Apprentice is one of my all time favorite platformers on Amiga.
Brilliant stuff. I'll get stuck into this

I can’t wait for more, thanks making this. Awesome video once again.
Good list! Great to see a new video!
Always great to see another OSG video. Thanks for your hard work 😃
My pleasure!
Aggression has to be based off the Project X bonus stage?! Great video, thank you.
Could be
Yay, you're doing another one of these series!
I'm looking forward to this, will be great to see more of it over Christmas if you have time :-D
That's the plan!
Oh cool, new games to try! I like that! Thanks!
Alianator was brilliant! Played it for hours!
Yeah it fell right under my radar, its a game I would have hammered as well, weird that not many people know it
Amiga A to Z!! Perfect!
Great video as always buddy and i have never played any of these, that said last monday i was given a usb with 4221(4.8gig) whd files on it and there is a lot of stuff i have never seen games and demos so am going to be having a load of fun playing stuff.

Abuse, Alien Fish Finger looks great I need to check those out!
It is great mate, Ive been playing Alien Fish Finger for years its defo one of the best PD games ever made in my books

I always liked Aquaventura, even tho its kinda famous being from psygnosis I feel it doesn't get talked about that much
yeah its a good game, there were a few that i was gonna put in but then thought that the publisher was too well known
Agression looks great.
YESSSSSS another OSG gem series!
Class video! Brilliant idea.
Great vid. Could you tell me what the music is in your intro please? Loved it back in the day but can't remember what it is.
Interesting video, never owned an Amiga or knew anyone who owned one, so never played the games
try an emulator mate, theres some great games on the Amiga
@@oldstylegaming I don't play games now, even though I read retro mags and watching TH-cam retro channels.
Aggression is a Super Cobra clone pretty much.
good picks !
Wanna try out Aggression, can't find it anywhere. LOL By the way can't wait for the next vid!!!!
Yes a new awesome series!!

I would have added Airball, Amnios and Apocalypse

There definitely oldies Those ones.
If I fire up the Amiga emulator right now and had to choose Chaos Engine or Alien Bash 2, I would play Alien Bash.
Not saying is better but I prefer to play it.
Abuse is not really an Amiga game. It is a port of a shareware game available on PC and Mac.
.... its running on the amiga though
@@oldstylegamingbut it wasn’t there in the amiga days.
@@jothain there are a few here that werent even released at all. These are gems now
@@oldstylegaming yeah I suppose that’s valid. Though somehow I got impression from early talk in video that this specifically about titles of the era. My bad.

Been going through your videos! Random question what did you use to edit your intro animation?
Lol i cant even remember, i made it 6 year ago ... it was probably a free intro maker or something online back then
Im actually in the process of making a new one as that is so dated and a bit annoying
@@oldstylegaming no probs thanks anyway! keep up the good work :)
X-Copy?
Trading games on the playground??

No thats the music

oh forgive my ignorance :-) thanks for watching mate
Does anyone have a link to the Abuse rom?
www.oldgamesfinder.com/?m=2&q=Abuse you can get it from there but its a minefield of LHA files your better off playing it on Amiga Live
@@oldstylegaming thanks alot! 😊🤘

i absolutely hated the amiga and still do...... i had one for about 6 weeks, flogged it to my mate and bought an atari tt....
Really? Why did you hate it?
