Evil grin Name this game! (except Twistin'!)

This is an actual screen from an actual Amiga game. Twistin is not allowed to play because he knows what game this is from.

Roll eyes (sarcastic)

Okay, I admit two things: I suck at this Name That Game thing, and yes that is a screen from Puppy Love, which I ripped as a file from the ADF.

Here's another quiz. Can you tell me what is special about the attached image:

Arrow Question time

I don’t know what is special about the second pic in this thread but it definitely looks French. Is it ripped from Future Wars or Operation Stealth?

About Puppy Love: What type of game is this and when was it released?

B.T.W. Dpainter, I really like your Preston Lacey avatar...

That second picture was one of several printed in the first issue of Amiga World (USA) back in 1985. It looked a lot better in Amiga World thanks to the smoothing features of scanlines and low dot-pitch monitors. I found the picture on Workbench 1.0 Demos, if anyone wants that disk.

Yeah, man...I don't know if I have that disk or not. Would be worth a look! I think I have that issue of AW in my retro cave.

Here's a scan from the original Amiga World image. The picture was drawn by Jack Haeger, who also did the graphics for the arcade game Sinistar:

Angry The sad fate of "Puppy Love"

Here's the offical reply from the company that actually MADE "Puppy Love":
Quote:
Thank you for your interest in Tom Snyder Productions,

Unfortunately Puppy Love is not a program carried by Tom Snyder
Productions. I wish that I could
give you more information, but I do not have any about this program.

Yours in great teaching,

Peter Giglio
