What is the correct name of this beat'em up game?
I thought this *should* be a fairly obvious one, but it isn't.
At least the logo (below DRAGON) showing a sun with two birds flying on its right half rang a lot of bells, but didn't suffice to find out the publisher. DBS attached. Last edited by andreas; 16 January 2005 at 02:13. |

More findings...
The game seems to originate from Italy.
Maybe it is called "Bruce Lee" or something. Here's the contents of the directory of my compilation disk: |

Well, the name is obviously "Dragon".
Seems like "FOR YOU" is a company name, but a really stupid one.  Maybe you find some more information if you investigate the executable with a hex editor.

That definitely looks like a game that I'd only play if someone held a shotgun to my head. :barf

Good guess, Photon
It really PLAYS that way even @Windowskiller Been there, done that. ByteKiller 1.x crunched executable, relocated. (Won't execute after decrunching). Nothing there apart from a Soundtracker song embedded in this file, and the files accessed in clear text. |

Why the suspicion? What indicates that the name might not be simply "dragon?

"FOR YOU" is clearly not part of the title.

Does it really look that much worse than some of the stuff we already knew of?

It doesn't look like an amiga at all - it reminds me those first CGA games that were out in 1988 for M$Do$ 3.30.

Well 'FOR YOU' is not part of the name.
if it's Bruce Lee, then it's just gonna be called Dragon, like the film of the same name and the official 3 player game. |
