Thank you for this and the other shareware games you are sharing with the community here. Awesome stuff.

That's great feedback!
Sounds excellent - would love to have seen a video of that meeting!
Really pleased that everyone loved Wired Chaos - your right, it is a great game.

I 2nd that, that sounded cool. It does take a bit of practice. I too found it a bit hard after 15 years of non play, but it does get easier after a short amount of time. Them maze levels were a bit tricky with the poo D-pad on my joypad.
What other multi-player games did you play at your meeting?

Just spent time playing it this evening (for reviewing purposes) - it's really good, very addictive, and I particularly like the number of different options. Shame there isn't an option to use a joystick adaptor though, fitting one player around a keyboard is no easy task let alone four...!

Get them to eat less Donuts .
Yes, it would have been nice. I never had one back in the day.
I guess if your using an emulator you could emulate the keys to joysticks/pads. I not tried that myself.

The thought of letting anyone actually touch my Amiga sends shivers down my spine...!

[Peter]

Never did find the full Amiga version of Psycheul and I lost contact with the author Ben James... shame really as I thought I was making real progress here... still never mind, cant win them all...

At least I am able to now play the PS1 version of the game, Psycon

I couldn't play the upload that Ben gave us the link to as I don't have a chipped PS1 but after searching for ages I finally found a copy of Playstation Magazine disk 42 that has the Net Yaroze Compilation on it... picture attached.

It's a good game - I like it, wish it were the Amiga version though!

After all these years, it's all gobbledygook to me!

Here's the source code: http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/11...44/psycheual.s

CD image to follow if it ever finishes uploading.

Reposting my request also here:

Bacman (1992) by Freddy Krysztofiak

The "PD" release is in fact a 1-level demo whereas the author promised a full 18-level release. Thanks for any reply.

[NeroAngelo]

I upped several items into the Zone. 3 are relevant to this topic's rules, so I will describe them in detail:

Bacman.adf -- the demo version I found online. Perhaps someone will have the full version?

BrainDead & BrainKiller -- two titles, but most likely, one game. BrainDead has no readme with it, BrainKiller has this:

secrets

** we develop to give the AMIGA a new future **

BrainDead is dated October 1996, whereas BrainKiller May 1997 (there are some newer files, but they are configs/readme/icons, not the actual game content, so May 1997 is the compilation date). Both are VirtualMadness titles and both have some similar files in their entrails so I assume they are actually one title that never got released. Anyone has any lead for VirtualMadness and/or its employees? Perhaps a full version or at least more levels (if it was cancelled) can be recovered.

Shouldn't this topic be pinned, by the way? It looks important enough

I've been looking for it since a lot of Amiga disks got thrown out a long time ago. All I can ever find is the 30 level shareware demo. I can remember it being on a white disk. If anyone has a copy, please please let me know.

If it's any help, I can remember it being on a white disk with a logo of the tiger on the front.

Sorry to ask but does anyone have a link of the full version of Beetle on Amiga. I keep finding the 30 level shareware demo version. I used to have it for Amiga and have been searching for it for ages.

Thanks to Robert for getting back to me, really appreciated

Wow, here's an old post that resulted in lots of hard work and then even a book release... great days.

Anyway... just wondered if anyone had ever come across this disk (pictured) I was wondering what it was, a game? a music prog? - cant seem to find a record of it online... anyone have it?

ah, that's the end of that mystery - thank you.

This cover rings a bell. I'm sure I received a disk with cheats compendium alongside their list of disks that could be purchased.
