Retrogaming of the 8 and 16 bit variety. That's my jam. 😎

This is a part of what I loved about Ultima V. The safety of towns was suddenly gone. Shadowlords were really something to be feared, and for much of the game fled-from. And late in the game a certain bad guy could eliminate one of your party entirely. (That really shocked me) 😮

But apart from having to reach for the keyboard on the odd occasion to switch weapons, controlling it all through the hyperkin stick went well. 🕹️ If it isn't a good stick, dodging the helicopters and meteorites on the first level becomes a huge chore. Here is was almost easy. 😎

And man, every piece of incidental art looks so good. Team 17 were really on their a-game here. They look pretty good on the ECS version, but on the AGA version (shown here) everything it cranked up a notch - even the raster shimmer as each loading image scrolls in.

Another good hyperkin retro-joystick test: Alien Breed II on the Amiga. This is still a stunning shooter. Beautiful pixel-work, and really atmospheric sound to boot. I feared it might be showing it's age by now. But no, it's still gorgeous to look at and frenetic to play. 😁👍

The version of Mega Apocalypse for me was the C64 one.
Beautiful Hubbard soundtrack, speech synthesis, and some crazy-fast gameplay. 👍

There was the Amiga version of Elite too.
But development of that was contracted out .. I wasn't a fan of it's vibrant colour scheme. And the feel of the game was just a bit off somehow. It never really grabbed me the same way the C64 version did. 🤔

I think the first combat racer I ever played was WipeOut on the PS1. 🤔 I kinda have the feeling that the Psygnosis guys must have been Super Cars fans. 😁

A good one for those who like top-down racers. A little slower paced than Turbo Trax, Overdrive, and Roadkill. But it's still a good challenge to work your way to the front of the grid, while maintaining your car and sparingly using the weapons. 10/10. Would shoot+race again. 😎

It's not a game I ever played, back in my Amiga days. It's certainly a fun one. A lot of effort has gone into the characters in the intro and the wee questionnaire's between levels. All that pixel-work almost overshadows the simplicity of the viewpoint of the game itself. 😁

Time for some Super Cars II on Amiga. I thought a top-down racer would be a good test of the new retro stick. 🕹️ It's a pretty good game for the Hyperkin stick as the rotational movement controls are quite twitchy. It feels like this game is the 2D origin of WipeOut franchise. 😁
