Wow, that massive amount of information is making me... dizzy There has to be at least a preview/demo version from which the screens are taken. Hopefully someone from the HOL team can tell us who made them

I've put what I think was the demo disk in the Zone (haven't checked it though so could be something unrelated!)

Well since it was never actually released it's hard to be definitive. Though it does say Flower on the title screen so I'd go by that as the most official name. AMR review was indexed before the HOL record existed, and it is called Flowers in the Amiga Dream reviews so both are correct in their own way.

I would say Flower, according to the title screen and this one :



Thanks Galaxy, this is indeed the demo version of Flower

Sorry for a little OT post..

EAB should have a panic buttom, which will bring up some excel stuff (just like the old sierra games)

For me the 'panic' button is pressing 'ctrl' twice (KVM) It just makes this treacherous 'beep' sound...

- good playability but little chaotic (Rodland is better here)
- no sfx, music only, even if you select sound fx in game menu
- A500 is enough
- good, responsive controls
