Flower: Missing Entry in HOL

Crown · 28 June 2006, 17:35

I have got my hands on a game preview which I could not find in HOL.

Here is the download link: http://madeinpixel.free.fr/Images/In...FloPreview.lha

I have no idea whether the game has ever been finished or not (no info in the french interview) but I guess some of you might know how to find more infos?

cheers

Hmmm, this is what it says in the file called FloPreview.readme but no clues as to whether or not is was actually finished...

Type: game/demo
Requires: A500 with 1 Mo

Date: Wednesday, 15th December 2004

What it is
----------
It is an Amiga Disk File image, known as ADF format.

You may need ADF2Disk to run it on Classic Amiga.

Also runs on Amiga Emulators like UAE & Fellow.

It is a "never released" game preview on A500.

We are looking for talented people to code it
on new hardware systems (GBA, PC, PSX, PegasOS...)

Hello !!! I just found out your post... (not too late

?)

I can easily answer to you as I am the graphician and uploader of the game...

Unfortunately the game has never been finished...

How can I help you ?

Graham Humphrey · 01 November 2007, 22:32

Well I think this could be one for aGTW

01 November 2007, 22:43

I am so sorry... I must have been away too much time ;-) What is "aGTW" ??

DamienD · 01 November 2007, 22:55

Thread moved since it was never finished

aGTW is Amiga Games That Weren't, here's the website: http://agtw.abime.net/

Any info that you could provide would be most excellent. Oh, and welcome to EAB

It's Amiga Games That Weren't: http://agtw.abime.net

An update of the site is on the way so I'll include Flower in it!

02 November 2007, 21:11

Thank you... Well, just ask me what kind of information you would like ?!

I will be pleased to answer...

Thank you

CodyJarrett · 02 November 2007, 21:37

Thanks blo - I'll play through the preview and send you some interview questions for the new site.

05 November 2007, 20:52

I will be very pleased to help you...

May be some day I will try to start that project again

A lot of people miss that old school jump'n'run games...

@blo:

I've created a basic HOL record for Flower http://hol.abime.net/5691

Could you please have a look and let me know what information should be added.

Also, do you know if the demo that you link to above the same as the demo that was included on the Generation 4 coverdisk?

Still awaiting after the good preview.

CodyJarrett · 09 December 2008, 07:41

I'm putting together some interview questions for the Amiga Games That Weren't site and will send them on to you this evening.

Crown · 09 December 2008, 13:25

There's really need of an alternative "already included in HOL" little database like this AGTW ?

Furthermore it contains so few games respect to HOL

http://hol.abime.net/hol_search.php?B_unreleased=yes

CodyJarrett · 09 December 2008, 19:35

Yes, the site is an official Amiga version of Games That Weren't 64: http://gtw64.retro-net.de and so has its own identity.

It has relatively few games because I've been mostly adding entries as I track down developers of the games for interview. This is time consuming and often difficult with many dead ends.

And sincerely a waste of time

You could add AGTW infos directly into HOL, my personal opinion

Finding infos and maybe even the full version of an unreleased game isn't a waste of time. It's a great thing that Cody does it

What's your problem with AGTW?
