Try this one...

I try to tell everything I remember:
The Title Screen shows a shuttle bay of a space station from isometric view (from the ceiling to the ground). You could see several ships (all the same?) and I THINK they were white. On the left you could see the open gate to space.

When you started the game you controlled a guy in a spacesuit. You could walk all directions, but it didn't scroll. When you reached the border of the screen it showed the next..."room".
I think there were elevators to reach the above and lower platforms...was there also a jetpack ? hmmm.....
You didn't die when you hit an enemy, but it made a strange sound...remember the horn of the truck in Major Motion ? Something similiar.

I'm sorry about those vague descriptions but I played it the last time when I was around 7 years old. It was one of my first games, together with OutRun,LEDStorm and GianaSisters. Anyways, hopefully someone can help.

It sounds like Space Station released by Paradox Software in 1986. Have a look at screenshots from the Atari ST version here:

There's also a WHDLoad installer for the game.

You should search for an adf, not a rom.

Stick out tongue

There ought to be an extra addition to the EAB rules. Please refrain from referring to Amiga games as "roms". Anyone breaking this rule shall be punished by Akira & Bub the Zombie!!

Juppie ! THAT'S THE GAME ! Thankyouthankyouthankyou.

EDIT: Hmmm, probably I'm too stupid, but where do I find this game ? It isn't included in the TOSEC database, is it ?

I'm sure it is, but I imagine it's only on a compact and I really don't know jack about the compacts. I just found a copy in my non-TOSEC dir, so I'm upping it to the Zone.

NOTE: I moved your request from that new thread to this one to keep things tidy.
