It's still 5h00n4y's go from last month: the current pic is here.

No guess, but let's try to solve this.

Games with mini-games I could think of:

- Pong in Alien Breed: probably not
- Dux (or whatever the name) in Lotus II. I don't know the original but I don't hink so.
- Various mini-games in Wiz 'n' Liz. Among them, the only one I 'know' the original name is snake. A search in HOL didn't reveal much clones and none looked like the screenshot. Maybe it's one of the other mini-games.

Dux is in Lotus 3, not 2.

It's ... guess the Lotus ;)
 

Wrong (maybe it's also in Lotus III. What does that CU amiga cheat code gives? I can't try it now)

Nope, and with the hint I meant that this picture is from a seperate stand-alone game, that's not ripped from any other game (AFAIK), but in another game, this type (genre) of game is considered a sub game ;)

You suck Shoons :cheese *TCD kicks Shoonay to give a real hint* ;)

Almost got it TCD!

Now what would be some other word that we get to see quite often in some threads that those who use it aren't very happy with the progress? ...

The years is '88, btw ;)

Aaargh! ? ;)

Nope, but methinks you're on the right track now... :D

Powerstyx?

@cane: nope, sorry

I had correctly understood your tip. I was listing those games with sub/mini-games, which easier to find, so that in the end we could find the the original/remixed into its own game sub-games.


Browsing the 1988 list, I think of Impossible Mission II, given that the original is in the 2025 version if I remember correctly.

Nope.
It is not a rip from any game, it's just that this game's genre type matches some other game's sub-game.
They don't share the same author nor graphics or even sound.

5h00n4y this is too complicated even to follow, not to guess :nuts

^Wut cane said ;)
Guess Shoonay found out that he will never get enough points by guessing screenshots, so he just gains them by giving useless hints and let the days pass by... :D

Yeah, like that's something no one ever did before here, ain't it? :rolleyes

Browse the freaking '88 games like you always do and don't complain! :P
