Amiga and Atari are brothers

Amiga is female, so more like siblings.

EDIT: double-post, somehow

Yay!

Came across the game years and years ago on Home of the Underdogs. Never did figure it out but it had nice art if nothing else.

Deathtrap Dungeon?

Amayirot Akago · Mon 17/04/2017 11:48:49

No, but it is a PS1 game also.

Hint: this GUI only shows up at the very start of the game.

I love that in your encyclopedian mind of games that you think a hint like that means something for regular joes...

Well, I didn't wanna make it too obvious, but also wanted to make it clear the picture wasn't a common thing

Tho I suppose *maybe* I took it a bit too far.

Ahem:

Could this pixel porridge be "Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain"?

Amayirot Akago · Tue 18/04/2017 19:33:22

Well, when it comes to pixel porridges, you're clearly a connoisseur

Go for it, Atavismus.

(the reason the screenshot's so murky is cause it came from the PS1 version unemulated)

No no my dear Amayirot Akago, real pixel art is not porridge at all.

8-16 bit for life!

Well, I'll try to find a game now.

Atavismus · Tue 18/04/2017 20:08:04

Something easy maybe:

Amayirot Akago · Tue 18/04/2017 20:09:40

Defender of the Crown?

Nope.

CaptainD · Tue 18/04/2017 21:50:02

Ramparts?

Of course!

CaptainD · Tue 18/04/2017 23:13:35

Funny thing is I've never actually played the game but recognised it instantly!

Okay this one may well be obvious even though I've cropped out 98% of the screen... we'll see.

Is that... Gollum?

abstauber · Wed 19/04/2017 06:59:24

CaptainD · Wed 19/04/2017 08:54:04

@Mandle - nope, it's a little critter called "Visine Orb".

Astauber has it! Over to you...

Lovely game! Spent ages getting good enough to beat the final opponent and almost wrecked my mouse in the process. I played it again recently on an emulator and... well, let's just say I don't think my reflexes are what they once were
