Question Top down shooter

Right, this has been driving me mad for ages, as I thought the name was "Extreme Violence" but it turns out that was another game. But its similar. The game I am thinking off had 2 bases player one in the top left, player 2 in the bottom right, which was just walls with 2 doors which only let you in. It was also decent graphics unlike EV, and it was set in like a jungle, where you could collect weapons etc, and there was less fredom to move around unless you blew stuff up.

There was also a robot which was near invincible trying to kill both of you (lol) which made it all the more ammusing.

I really want to find this game, because for a mates party a few years back I took my amiga and this and it was a HUGE hit.

It may even have been PD, I dont know

Oh well, all help appreciated.

Whoa. I remember playing this as well. Sorry can't remember the damn name though. But yeah, hopefully someone knows what it was called.

Question Cabal?

Hmm, the only game I could think of is Cabal.

I don't think it's Cabal or Line Of Fire, as these aren't top down shoot-'em-ups...

Well, HOL doesn't have that game (because PD/SW games are usually not listed) but I found an EV site of the original programmer!

Isn't Google wonderful!
Having the picture before your very eyes, this might ring more bells with you guys trying to find the game!

Remeber, the game looks alot better than that though, so dont go looking for really crap shooter things.

Arg, if my Amiga HD wasnt dead I could see. Can PC's read Amiga formatted HDs?

Ooooooo this is soooooo frustrating....

Nope, not crackdown, it had more colours, making things look textured, so it must have been AGA.
