Classic 2D commando-war game name?.

29 October 2006, 11:06

Me and a friend played this game years ago. best one ever. Im positive it was on amiga.
-It is side-scrolling 2D game.
-You play a commando soldier.
-you could enter buildings and rescue hostages
-You could use the knife to slit enemies throats.
-You could mount C4 charges that you could blow at the end of the level and when you blew them far off range the screen flashes.
You blew up brigdes mostly and flight hangars.

That is all i remember. WHAT IS THAT NAME

Absolutely.. thanks for the answer.
Is it possibly to get this down to PC by emulation?

Yeah look at the >>FAQ<<

Looks like a fun game, I might give it a try.

That game didn't work on my A500 (flashing blank screen before picture with eagle). Now it's boring for me for unknown reason.

Also remember that you can fall through platforms by pulling down when you fall. This is required to proceed at one point in the game.
