Jeez, another cruddy Ghosts 'n Goblins Amiga clone, how many more!

[ZEUSDAZ]

Cor blimey, how many shitey G'n'G clones have we seen on the amiga and more importantly how many don't we know about?


In this edition of "Shit Game Time" I've been asked by youtuber "William Harrison" to play and shitrate Night Walk on the Amiga, It's slow, It's cheap and it should never have seen the light of day on the glorious Amiga, it really is utterly awful.


NIGHT WALK SGT REVIEW: [ Show youtube player ]

Looks more like a poor man's Stormlord to me. Looks boring. Also reminds me of Ghost Battle a little, games where you are tasked to end a level before your life bar is drained and it is nearly impossible to dodge enemies or projectiles.

Robocop 2 also suffers from that but at least that game looks and sounds really cool.

Everything he uploads is "shit game" for him.
This makes him laughable, unreliable person not understanding world of Amiga.
Useless clickbait boomers created by 21st century who think they can call "shit" everything they want, with no respect to original developers.

By that "logic" we should respect the work of Tiertex?

Umm,... you do understand that it's just a category/theme right?
Not everything he uploads is to do with "shit games", just the games that fall under that category/theme.
He even says that it was requested as part of that category.

But why read when you can advertise an inability to comprehend and use cliches like "boomer" ?

You know, I'll give you that one. They did manage to crank out a fair number of games. Quite impressive when most of them are mediocre to bad.

I think its more US Golds business model, because did anyone else use Tiertex at the time?

I'm pretty sure that's not what he really meant, and you probably know it too. In any case, I prefer this logic to the one where eveything that is not an AAA release is lazily coded rubbish

Every shit game he uploads IS SHIT.


Which one so far has not been shit?

But Night Walk is rubbish. Play it for yourself and tell me it's just a mediocre game.

[Retro1234]

didn't he do one of spitting image - think he kind of missed the point there.

After his little tantrum of hyperbole, I'm not quite sure you can claim that

Moonshine Racers for one, that one is clunky but not shit. It takes a little practice.

Opinions are like onions, they are layered. Wait, I'm mixing some things up.

Meh, "Boomer" is a compliment that ignorant people make thinking it is an insult. "Okay boomer". Yes, I'm a boomer, from a time period where people thought with their head instead of with their phone. Thank you.

Technically you are not even Gen X I always feel left out when they call early FPS 'boomer shooter' now

Edit: Since both John Carmack and John Romero are Gen X I demand they will be called 'Gen X shooter' from now on!
