What sort of game was The One talking about here?

http://amigacoverdisks.emuunlim.com/...verscanBig.jpg

I can't seem to think of any game, released or unreleased, that seems to fit this cover well. Is it one of those games that never got finished?


Also, can anyone say whether all copies of the below coverdisk were like this ()?

Is that without looking at the originating page first, Paul?

Anyways, thanks very much for the quick response and the equally-quick scans Dizzy. I don't seem to recall ever seeing this game elsewhere, whether on paper or on web. Did it ever come out in any form? Does a version of it exist in the TOSEC dats?

I think this link answer your question. You also find info here (Amiga Action had it in issue 68)

And some more info

But this must also be some info for the HOL team

Works - with a smart little trick!
Copy the URL and paste it into address field!

Every web page looks for a referrer (i. e. the site you came from), and you can avoid creating an EAB referrer by copy-pasting!

Not necessary. Put a space after the .jpg extension and that's it.

Ah, what would you do without me!

Yeah, it's great to see EAB veteran Burseg back. Always enjoyed having you round in the EAB early years.

We also need the other once regular members to come back, even if just occasionally - Twist for example.
