Thanks, added! I've checked Battletoads and that does indeed force the choice so updated the list. Also checked Power Drift and that one is actually music and sound at the same time.

Cybernoid II, and almost sure the first one too

Thanks! And it doesn't look like the original had any music at all.

Exactly this!

Welcome to the thread Dan :-) Although it's primarily a list-building thread, it would be interesting to get some first-hand insight into the challenges with Amiga game development re audio.

It's curious that Chuck Rock 2 doesn't suffer from the music vs SFX limitation but some Core games that followed it did? Presumably then not the case that after you cracked it for Chuck 2 that expertise / code could then be copied into all following games?

People who copy/pasted a lot created Tiertex-grade games.

Still do

But nowadays I commit the cardinal sin of making it run in a browser so I'm even further removed from the cool kids.

I left the fields of real coding to venture to the 'finance and investment' department, so I won't blame you

Plus with the right toolkit PHP and JavaScript are quite... interesting to work on
