That Chicago 30's http://planetemu.net/?section=roms&d...wrom&id=502388 is not too bad. Choppy scrolling and bad guys shooting bottles from old guns at you but you can some mindless fun like in Cabal. Sounds and music are generated.

This is regarding Atari ST games that weren't released on Amiga, right?

Because Chicago's 30 was released for Spectrum and MSX too...

Yes, Atari ST games that weren't released for Amiga.

Video of high quality and exclusive platform game Dragon Lord: [ Show youtube player ] Video is short because of very slow recording with Hatari (1 frame=4 seconds).

s2325 · 24 August 2011, 22:35

Fourmi Story [ Show youtube player ] have few layers of parallax which is rare on Atari ST. Sorry but I can not play without errors when recording (controls delay+slowdown).

and some quality stuff for good night:
Robotz (very good graphics in Amiga style and sampled sound but I don't know what I should do to finish first level):

Recoil (Defender clone but your spaceship is on some kind of spring):

The Last Trooper (it's not mindless shooter in Arnie 2 style because you need to find tools to go past the fence, recommended game):

Verminator (this platform game have eerie atmosphere because of graphics and music, also recommended game):

Not sure what you have to do in the original ST game, but you could try the Windows remake/tribute that Heavy Stylus has made. It will probably give you some ideas on what to do.

The helicopter game is called "Tri-Heli".

s2325 · 09 September 2011, 15:58

You're right, thank you.

s2325 · 12 September 2011, 13:36

I found that Tri-Heli is remake of Chopper Hunt/Buried Bucks: http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari...hunt_1047.html http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari...bucks_844.html

Buried Buck$ is a fine example of an unfortunate trend-placing originality before quality game play. There simply must be some reasonable middle ground between all the Pac-Guys and Protectors other than something as far-fetched as digging for bags of money by dropping bombs from a helicopter. Of course, all would have been forgiven if it had been a good game, but it isn't.

You are the pilot of a helicopter, whose job is to mine for $. You do this (stage left) in your funny little orange helicopter, and looking for big gold $ signs. You then dig for them by making a hole in the ground with your trusty bombs and then flying down to retrieve them by touching them. Your life is complicated by a big fat plane which drops clods of dirt which will bury you if you are unlucky enough to be caught under one of them. They will also fill any hole located under them. r• Your only other obstacles are rocks which obstruct your digging. To get past them, you use the gun mounted in the front of the helicopter. As the levels get higher the dirt gets faster, and the rocks become more numerous.

This is a cute premise with no promise. My main complaint is that this game is boring. It goes too quickly from ridiculously easy to impossible, and along the way it completely fails to capture your attention or provide excitement for any prolonged gameplay. The sound effects leave something to be desired, too. The graphics are good, but graphics can only enhance a game, not make it into a good one.

Don't overestimate the dirt. On the easier level there is enough time to go into a tunnel and come back up before the dirt gets you.
