Exclusive Levels in Game Demos

So, we are talking special levels that don't make it into the final game normally featured on coverdisks...

one that springs to mind is:-

Exile - Amiga Power Coverdisk 3
http://amr.abime.net/issue_3_coverdisks



know of any others?

I think there was a silly putty one on CU amiga
Rick Dangerouse II one (think it may have been amiga format)

Turns out it was the one http://amr.abime.net/issue_311_coverdisks for Rick Dangerouse II.

Another edit later and its Putty http://amr.abime.net/issue_597_coverdisks, pretty sure it was exclusive as when you interacted with some object a copy of CU amiga would drop down.

The Amiga Format Cannon Fodder demo (called Cannon Soccer) on a Christmas issue counts, I would have thought.

Yup, check our site (in my signature), section "Level maps summary"

Huh? The demo contained world 1 level 3 didn't it? The screenshots seem to match too.

Perhaps there was some difference?

You're right, the demo was identical to the game level.

The Alien Breed 3D demo had a level that didn't appear in the full game. However, the demo had a lot of other things that didn't apear in the full game, such as proper Gigeresque Alien enemies.

Sorry, I completely forgot to check... I guess I will going to bed early today .


Anyway, I believe the demo available here:
http://www.nemmelheim.de/graftgold/downloads.html

is the same.

At least, when you start, it reads "one-ship taster", which I guess is similar to single ship taster. Perhaps all the demos available are actually the same.
