Off-shore Warrior

Tim Janssen · 10 April 2002, 16:03

I am looking for a game called Off-shore Warrior by Titus in 1989. It is a crap 3D into-the-screen race-game which uses the same graphics engine as Crazy Cars.
If anyone can download it I would be very grateful.

Thanks for uploading it, Uukrul.
I read a review of this game almost 14 years ago but never had the pleasure to play it on my real Amiga. Now I will finally find out what the game is like.

It's Crazy Cars on the water. And even more crap than CC (if you can imagine that). One for the Hall Of Shame...

When I read the Off-shore Warrior review and saw its score (28% in Zzap, 1989), I knew this game was crap.

When I bought my Amiga two years later I only hunted new Amiga software and did not care about dated Eighties games. A single floppy disc cost 1 Euro so I preferred the latest shmup / platformgame rather than a stinkin’ old Crazy Cars clone. Now in this age of Amiga emulation I am after every single Amiga game that is reviewed in these old magazines.
There are still sooo many ‘old’ titles which got a review I am after (Hellbent, The Kristal, Knight Force, Heart of the Dragon to name but a few) that makes hunting them on Internet a time consuming but rewarding challenge.

I uploaded all of those except for Heart of The Dragon. I can upload that for you tomorrow (well, later today to you) if you like, I'm just a little exhausted right now (still sick and I think I'm gonna go crash).

Wow, thanks for uploading some of my requested games, Twistin’.

My intention was to hunt for them on the Net the next couple of weeks. Now my only problem is trying to find some free time to play them –I wished a day consisted of more hours.

KF shows a very strange behavior on WinUAE.
When testing, it froze during the crunching operation.
And no, the disk is 100% error-free, for it passed my WB test.

Toni, you might want to look into this someday.

No kidding, but if days were indeed longer, somehow the work day would extend along with it.

At any rate, I popped up a couple of versions of Heart of the Dragon to the Zone for you. Just because.
