You think thats bad. I cant play Flimbo's Quest still as I was so afraid of the boss of stage 3 when I was a kid. I can barley even bring myself to play it again today (Plus the controls are pretty sticky and awkward these days) |
Shame, level 4 was quite lovely
Archipelagos creeped me out a bit as a kid, its about these plants infecting the world and the red creeps out from them, as the island gets more and more infected the sky gets redder.

I have got past Level 3 before, The rest of the levels are quite good if a good bit more creepy and full of horrible enemies that also scared me shitless through childhood (The flying dog on level 5 made me shiver when I watched the video below) but the whole art direction in the C64 version is like the bastard child of Harryhausen and Giger compared to the more cartoony and "Soft" Amiga version. So through the magic of youtube...
C64 version:
Amiga:

Woah I'm glad my experience is only with the Amiga one, the C64 version is completely different. Much prefer the weird sea side coral world to the underground torture room.
Love the Amiga one, beautiful graphics and music also I've only just noticed on the title screen the little computer screen hes typing on actually mimics the text correctly great attention to detail.

Top Banana on the Amiga, THE EYES!!!!!
Dwarf Fortress
Building machines to kill off troublesome children,
Filling your backpack full of bloody vomit and vomitous blood and using it for food when you climb up a mountain because it doesn't freeze
ordering a wall to be built knowing full well it will seal the mason inside the water cistern forever… knowing he has a wife and kids

Yep it plays a bit like rainbow islands, it was made by some DJ/VJs in the early 90s so its probably the product of too many drugs
