Erm, although you didn't said what game you are talking about, I am guessing you're talking about Ruff 'n' Tumble. If I am wrong, ignore this post

To aim above your head, just hold the fire button, then push one of the diagonalls. If I remember correctly, you can't aim directly UP, you can only aim on diagonals.

I also think you can't aim down , not even diagonally, or maybe you can do it only on edges.

thats not the game, its actually called ruffian. i dont know if it actually got released, i had like a preview copy or something, in about 1995

ok, forgive my stupidness then

Is Ruffian about a little boy in the jungle? If that is the game it was released and reviewed by most games magazines in 1995.
I have experienced similar problems in turning Ruffian’s head diagonally. This problem occurs in the very first level where you have to collect all pixies (or whatever they’re called). One pixie is out of reach and cannot be shot let alone touched by Ruffian. Lucky my copy of the game has a levelskip so this is not a real problem.

A Little boy in a jungle, released and reviewed in most magazines... shooting at pixies ...

For me still looks like Ruff 'n' Tumble

shatterhand: maybe it was released under the name 'ruff 'n' tumble' in Brazil.

Tim: yeah, thats it

though i dont remember having any trouble with this in 95/96, maybe my memory is just REALLY terrible, lol. I'll go find the password to level 2 and see if i can aim.
Thanks all

No, Amiga games never changed names here in Brazil.. games were never "oficially" published here, we only had pirated copies

I know it's not Ruff 'n' Tumble , I am dumb, that's it
