Crumbs...........I haven't thought about that game for years. It sounds like a good shot.

I think I have played this game for a total of, like, 5 minutes.
But yeah...it's probably it

I didn't like the game either
The witches soon became boring. And platforms are not really my field if you know what I mean

That's it! It is indeed Cauldron II and it was fiendishly difficult even with infinite lives poke.Originally posted by ljcvetko
The game in question is probably Cauldron II. The main character is a bouncing pumpkin and it has to collect some items jumping around the platforms (the age of platform games). I liked two witches in the upper corners of the screen laughing sinisterly whenever you die
Ljcvetko has the floor.

Btw here's a link to the Flash version of Cauldron 2 in all its glory.

It’s time to share with you people my very first multiplayer experience.
I played this game with my friends occasionally on my C64 during the eighties.
You are in the role of a fighter pilot and your goal is to fend off an alien invasion shooting at some sort of alien birds. You can fly in all eight directions using joystick, but you have limited fuel. From time to time, a supply plane flies over you and you have to catch the fuel it drops.
This is probably enough to guess if you have played the game.
This is an old game, from 1983, so I don’t expect correct answers from young punks like Dr. Spike.

Does it also have something to do with protecting skyscrapers (or trying to destroy them in the process)?

I used to level them very early on to have more manoeuvring space.
But the best effect was when an egg hatched into a crawling alien who ate the lowest floors of the skyscrapers and they collapsed

Yeah, that game was pretty cool at the time. I played it a few years later once we got a C64. As it luck would have it the name escapes me for the moment.

Naaah...where would be the challenge? Besides, I have a good idea DrSpike might know it as well.

I have to agree.............this one is 3 years before I got my Spectrum, and it doesn't ring any bells.

Can't say that I remember it either and I thought that I cornered the C64 game market
