I have found a lot of PD/shareware games I liked on Aminet, but sadly next to no platform games (with the possible exception of Fayoh 1&2). Any recommendations?

s2325 · 19 June 2008, 10:50

yes, try Dark Angel, Monty the Wolf, Platon, Rock Hard Willy

Graham Humphrey · 19 June 2008, 11:30

I'm surprised the FaYoh games aren't in your list actually, they're very good.

Also I recommend Jet Set Willy '97, if you're into that sort of thing.

s2325 · 19 June 2008, 11:41

I think Fayoh isn't PD game.

Graham Humphrey · 19 June 2008, 12:29

It is - it can be downloaded from Aminet...

alkis21 · 19 June 2008, 12:37

I also think Fayoh was shareware, so technically not 'PD'.

Thanks for the recommendations, I'll try them out!

Graham Humphrey · 19 June 2008, 14:38

Yeah it was, but later on the author made both FaYoh games freeware

That file is an ADF larger than 800k (Extended ADF in emulation circles I guess?).

Anyway, I just made an 880k ADF dump of my disc & it's now in The Zone for those who wish to write a floppy for use on a real Amiga

PZ.

s2325 · 08 November 2010, 12:32

Yes, I don't know why it have 900KB but I don't remember that I needed switching HD disk option.

Game from EAB server, polish games section. I don't know how to move in this game (broken controls?)

First, you probably noticed, but you can redefine your keys (or select the joystick in port1) with F6 (+ do a few other things like authorizing diagonal movement). You have 4 movement keys + one action key (the one in the middle when you redefine).

The game is a mix of a snake game (the one where your tail increase each time you eat) and a puzzle game. So be careful to always be on the move so that you don't touch something that kills you.

Here is a tutorial for level 1. I quickly started level 2 but I am no masochist

so I will drop there.

You start like on your screenshot. First objective is to move over the little water jet (on the right of the rock). The best way to achieve this is to come from the left side and from above (as if you were coming from down the tree). Then when you come in contact with the water jet, you turn right.
This way you will collect a water drop (as you can see in the square at the top of the screen):
http://tarantola.alexandre.free.fr/E.../1DYSK_001.png

Next step it to go towards the tree as in this screenshot:
http://tarantola.alexandre.free.fr/E.../1DYSK_002.png

When you are at this position, press the action key and the character will throw the water. Then immediately move away (and of course avoid collision). If you don't do this, since the character goes faster than the water, it will collect the water again.
http://tarantola.alexandre.free.fr/E.../1DYSK_003.png

As a result of receiving the water, the tree will grow a fruit

:
http://tarantola.alexandre.free.fr/E.../1DYSK_004.png

Then you need to collect the fruit. Quite difficult to do (aim for it and make a U-turn as soon as you feel you will get it). Try with Winuae if you can so you can practice with save stats. On a real Amiga you would get frustrated.
http://tarantola.alexandre.free.fr/E.../1DYSK_005.png

The next step is to drop the fruit in the bucket:
http://tarantola.alexandre.free.fr/E.../1DYSK_006.png

The bucket will disappear, allowing the water to flow to the fire and extinguish it.
http://tarantola.alexandre.free.fr/E.../1DYSK_007.png

Then all you need is to reach the exit. Of course, you need to aim exactly for the door. If you touch the WYJSCIE sign, you will die

.

I hope this game gets voted for one EAB/LA competition
