Your favourite free games released in the last 10 years?

hitm4n · 13 August 2023, 16:19

I would like to compile a modern list of free Amiga games from the last 10 years that we can say are generally highly regarded. I want the list to be around 35 games. So...

The digital version from itch.io is. Technically it is 'name your own price', but you can get the full game for free.

No, the digital version is $2.99. https://rgcddev.itch.io/tiger-claw
The download is not available if you click "No thanks".

TCD · 13 August 2023, 17:30

I'll never understand why every other version is free, but the Amiga version costs 2.99 $

Thank you for pointing that out.

hitm4n · 13 August 2023, 17:47

I used to love Bruce Lee back on the Speccy and this looks like a great remake. Sadly, not free, so can't go on list. Shame.

Keep em coming.

For me titels like Skill Grid, Solid Gold, Trap Runner, Inca Man
are not free games.
They all are sold in Big Boxes or DVD Jewelcase. Trap Runner is still available that way
at the APC/TCP Shop.
That is what I did not like in the new HOL system.
On SkillGrid stands both the physical and the download versions are free.
But the physical Edition costs 30 GBP, it is sold out . now but this was the price.

Megalomaniac · 13 August 2023, 21:03

I'd say that if there's a free download available, then that's a free game, even if there's a boxed version available. 'Pay what you feel it's worth' games where you can pay nothing are more of a grey area.

alkis21 · 13 August 2023, 22:32

I've spent countless of hours playing these three amazing ports:

Bomb Jack - Beer Edition
Tiny Bobble
Rygar: Legendary Warrior

saimon69 · 13 August 2023, 22:44

Have a personal affection with Blocky Skies, given was my first big project after several years of inactivity

sokolovic · 13 August 2023, 23:33

Turrican 2 AGA ?

hitm4n · 13 August 2023, 23:56

Keep em coming guys, all good suggestions... Need more

jurassicman · 14 August 2023, 08:37

zerosphere is very cool!

lionagony · 14 August 2023, 18:44

I also like Celtic Heart https://amiga.abime.net/games/view/celtic-heart

and even though it's just the first level I think maybe Hamulet should be included since it's such a revolution for HAM mode on the Amiga and I think everyone should know about it https://amiga.abime.net/games/view/hamulet-demo

Amigo the Fox is a fun Scorpion game too https://earok.itch.io/amigo-the-fox

What do you think has been a standout FREE game release in the last 10 years that should be on this short list? (you can promote your own if you like).

I have started this thread afresh from another. lionagony (thankyou) did respond with this initial list...

Post 2000 I think the best are:

So last 10 years or last 20 years?

hitm4n · 14 August 2023, 20:07

I know lionagonys list was post 2000. Its not a hard and fast rule, i just wanna put together a modern list. I suppose 20 years ago is not very modern really, so if we stick within the last 10 years or so that would be good.

alkis21 · 14 August 2023, 21:53

Some more quality titles from the past decade that haven't been mentioned yet:

Center Court 2
Green Beret
Kiwi's Tale
Knightmare
Metal Gear

hitm4n · 14 August 2023, 23:31

I'll keep building the list in first post. urls are handy too if you can be bothered, if not i can hunt out the game info

Ta.
