Never heard of any of these games. Can they be downloaded anywhere?
Have you heard of Turtleminator? A very good game in Cannon Fodder style, which is also made by Alastair Murray. I think this is his best game. Hanger 18 and Traitor are also quite good of course. |

I have now Countdown to extinction running. I have difficulties with Kill em all, though. It runs on my real Amiga 1200 with blizzard, but it refuses to run under emulation (A1200 with 8MB fast) - it always gives me Out of Memory error during the start. Nevermind - did anyone manage to run XII? It immediatelly quits back to WB with "missing file" error after launch.

This game would need to be decompiled somehow

No wonder at all that you could not get this game running. There is some hard-coded strings in the main file.
I got it running now. Not a game I would like to play.... guess it's more fun to play with friends. |

That's right.
The files needs to be on dh1: Just extract the files into this directory: DH1:AMOS_Stuff/XII/ and it should start. Last edited by hipoonios; 28 October 2016 at 19:32. |

http://www.lemonamiga.com/games/list...stair%20Murray They are: Chaos XII Kill em all Countdown to extinction Traitor Hanger 18 Blobby Banana Islands The Turtleminator Beside those, he had also created four tutorial games for Backbone, but I will not include those. Thanks to all you involved who helped me to find and / or run the games or contributed with screenshots. |

Alastair Murray commented on my Turtleminator video on Youtube. He confirmed a bug making a level not possible to complete. He did a patch and now it can be played all to the end!
He uploaded the patch here. Guess it will also be on Aminet later. [ Show youtube player ] The Turtleminator is definitely among the best Amiga PD games. He also said he currently experimenting with doing a new version for PC. I'm working on it Last edited by hipoonios; 14 January 2017 at 23:37. |
