Try Wizzy's Quest http://hol.abime.net/3872 I think it's better than Solomon's Key.

I liked the 8 bit versions of Slap Fight, even the Speccy. There is a great version of Slap Fight for the Megadrive/Genesis too.

It's amazing how many big games weren't converted (even ported) to the Amiga!

in the game Krypton Egg, there's an editor, i think it's in GFA basic, i don't know about the game itself.
It's a conversion from an ST game... just look at the logo on the bat

Especially the new crack from Nostalgia with a full working highscore saver.

WOW! The 1st ever game I saw on the Amiga was Slap Fight. My cousin had just bought an Amiga. I was gob-smacked but I can't remember that much about it now. Is this game available for download?

Ke???

Slap Fight was never released on the Amiga unfortunately

You must have seen this on the C64

The best option you have is to play the arcade version via MAME32

You're (once again) totally correct DamienD. I remember now. It was INSANITY FIGHT and Fire & Forget that I 1st saw on the Amiga.

Slap Fight I did have on the C64.

Soz!
