Guess the Screenshot - 2024

[malko]

Rules:

01). Only 1 screenshot post at a time.

02). Winner is the only person who can post screenshots OR they can nominate another member.

03). Screenshots must be from Amiga (obviously) games only.

04). Screenshots can have a minimum shot size of 60x60 pixels (NOT ZOOMED/RESIZED). This also includes ensuring WinUAE is setup correctly (no scaling). Please ensure that you select a screensize of 320x200/256, Line doubling is off and lo-res is ticked.

05). Ridiculous shots (i.e not legible as a game) will be removed and the previous screenshot poster can have another go

06). Screenshot must be from a COMMERCIAL or well known PD release and can be from any part except the cracktro etc.

07). 5 Points for a correct answer, 1 point per day for the poster if his screenshot is not guessed (point is awarded after 24 hours from when the screenshot was posted).

08). League table will be kept in the post directly after this one.

09). Anyone posting screenshots when it's NOT their go will lose a point and the post deleted.

10). If a new game isn't posted within 24 hrs of getting the answer confirmed correct then the player forfeits their go and the previous player chooses who is next.

11). Only one guess per person per hour UNLESS somebody else guesses within that hour AND the poster has to say whether it is/isn't correct.

12). The player having posted the picture can post a tip at any time.

13). As a gentlemen's practice, if no answer has been provided for three days, the player having posted the picture may consider to provide a tip on the fourth day (and every fourth day counting from the last tip).

14). In order to keep the flame alive, if HOL's criterias are provided as tip(s), it should be considered that the search result when the tip(s) is inputted does not return more than 300 results.

15). Have fun.

Any rule breaks will result in the go being disqualified and a point deducted from score.

Edit : If the poster knows that he/she will be unavailable for some days (holidays, job travel, etc.), and he/she is going to be unable to check the guess, has to simply PM me the answer. I will handle the guesses in the meantime .

Here we go again for a new Guess the Screenshot year

First guess is from capehorn :

Next then... I'm going use the interpretation of the 60x60 rule that any image of 3600 pixels should count, just as some others have done in the past.

Bloodwych?

[capehorn]

No, it's not Bloodwych.

Well spotted. A 60x60 image would have given it away!

The picture was not taken from HOL database. It is part of a developer's logo when the first attract mode was played.



Sorry, can not find the original grab I took but it is likely I messed up the resolution, comparing with the new one in this post. I apologize for that, it was not intentional. However my mistake did not stop Marcuz from guessing and finding the right answer.
