Can you guess this old game from just one screenshot?
I’ll update this post with the answer at 5pm today if no one has guessed before then. Or if you do guess it before then, feel free to share your memories of a classic game.
My first instinct was that it looks an awful lot like Paradroid, except with no numbers on top of the robots like the C64 version. Also looks like it’s on the Amiga or Atari ST possibly?
I don’t know what it is, but it looks awesome in that early 90s “Holy crap, we have more than 16 colours to work with – let’s shade damn near everything onscreen a gradient!” kinda way that was popular back then. Maybe it’s even on the Amiga?
OH yeah! Paradroid 90 on Amiga. In programming class a couple of years ago we had to make a clone of Paradroid, I ripped the graphics from this version :)
