Name the game - part 4

[child of Thor]

No No NO! - it's got to be Captive with those clues



or maybe maybe ....the Grim Fandango ?[to keep the Doctor happy]

[DrSpike]

Hey, I didn't start it!

And the original Duke Nukem game was a platform shooter, not a FPS. I don't know if it appeared on the Amiga, but it's quite possible since I played it on a PC in the early 90s.

Duke Nukem didn't have a suit. And he wasn't a reluctant shooter either.

Plus it's been strongly hinted the shooter is a robot who was not designed for shooting.

I'm thinking C3PO Ewok Hunting.

No, but you had to put the suit on before you started any shooting.

Clue 3 - In fact, although the answer is wrong, the first Duke Nukem did use some of the graphics from this Smashing game!

Is it Turrican?

[duke o' york]

Yes!
Thank God for that. I was worried that no-one remembered it.

[DrSpike]

I had the first 2 games, but on my spectrum if memory serves me correct (at least for the original). Hence I didn't think of it sooner. Maybe I had the second game on my Amiga, to be honest I can't remember.

Ok, new game later.

Ah TurricanII, an excellent game

the clues seem obvious now

for those who still have an old amiga around, or just like playing emulated stuff this link might be nice to amigagames site

[DrSpike]

Clue 1: Fast paced Amiga platformer.

[child of Thor]

Damn you!

Er.....GODS?(just to get the ball rolling)

[DrSpike]

Nope.

[Hueij]

Prince of Persia? (Or was that already on PC?)

[DrSpike]

Nope.

[Standup]

Switchblade 2 ??

[DrSpike]

Nope.

Clue 2: The game was jumping on the Sonic bandwagon, and featured a similar style of gameplay, including the main character's attack style.
