hwj_chim Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Published by Data East so close enough. But Mega Turrican kicks ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punisher5.0 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 I really liked this video. Thanks for sharing. It looks like it would be a fun game to play not sober. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+fdr4prez Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 We played that game quite a bit as a kid on my C64. I think I still have the game in a box, somewhere. I recall it wreaking havoc on my joysticks trying to start the fire and run faster than the saber-toothed tiger. I'd love to see a modern remake, but I think I'll look into getting the game working on C64 emulator on my RetroPie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to say the next time I ever touch this game I will make sure nobody is sober. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 And I thought it was bad enough that in Blood 'n Guts on the C64, you got to throw a cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
high voltage Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Wasn't that a Swedish developer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Indeed, developed by Greve Graphics and published by American Action (also based in Sweden, despite its name) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassGuitari Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 It's not Caveman Games/Ugh-Limpics, but I thought it was kind of fun throwing monkeys and stuff around in Bible Adventures. Of course, that was about the only fun thing about Bible Adventures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Popp Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Good ole Data East. Another gem from them. What is your favorite Data East game? Caveman games gets a lot of hate, but honestly if you read the manual, you can have a lot of fun. For the woman toss, you need to time your rotation with what's on the screen and not "as fast as possible". Glad you figured out the fire starting, as kids we could start a fire in under 1 minute without a turbo controller. We owned it and actually had a lot of fun. All your frustrations would have been solved with the instruction manual, but maybe that doesn't make for as good of a video? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keepdreamin Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Windjammers/Flying Power Disc is by far the best game they created. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 A few years ago, I pondered developing a crap game "Sumo Bowling" which would feature sumo wrestlers that you push out of the ring onto a bowling lane, trying to knock out as many pins as possible. Perhaps I should return to that idea, but replace sumo wrestlers with agitated ladies, a.k.a. cat fighting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
