Yeap, my thoughts to..

OCS/ECS: Agony, Project X, Superfrog have impressive graphics while maintaining an ultra smooth frame rate. However, the list can be expanded to include several other titles from different genres as well, like MKII, Walker, Ruff 'n Tumble, SOTB series.. You know the drill here, just check the list of Psygnosis, Team17, Core et al. publishers :P
Still, I am visually in love with Flight of the Amazon Queen, since I believe that the main character is probably the best drawn/animated/controlable OCS human figure ever.

AmigaCD OnEscapee I believe has the most impressive artwork.

AGA.. hmm dunno I really like Aladdin but the fps rate really sucked compared to other ports of the game imho. Exodus has excellent background images (and imho is better than Napalm overal, but that's a different question :P). Again here the list is rather bog.. for example Fightin Spirit was awesomely drawn as well!


Yes flight of the amazon queen is a very cool game and nice to look at :)

I know people are usually thrilled with Agony's graphics, but I've always found it somehow depressing.

There are two Stardust games and Roadkill. Also, Aladdin and Lion King.
I'll try to think of some more...


Thanks for your input :)

What about flight sim's? Within the limits of polygons I suppose, but I recall Combat Air Patrol looked pretty wild, at times.


HI i have just tried Combat air patrol on my amiga 4000 :) i have over 10 gig of games on that, so when you write a game i should try, i just go in and see if it is on the hard disks and they almost all are :-) very nice game.

For some reason the image links aren't working for me Cammy.

Has anyone mentioned Gods?  Great looking scroller.
Or Agony...

That would be rise of the robots :)


Rise of the robots was a good looking game, but the gameplay was not :)

And i must say that i find old games more special and creative than new games, they had some cool ideas, how to make games special back in the day :)

A game that impressed me at the time (and I was a huge fan of the arcade game) was Dragon's Lair.

The conversion of the animation was pretty darn good, full screen, and streaming from floppies...

(And required 1M RAM, UNLESS you had an Amiga 1000, where it could use the kickstart RAM space.  Tricky there.. Not sure any other game did that..)

For the time, that was impressive...

Thanks i will have to check it out :)

Flink and KangFu are kind of special in using chipset tricks, at least KangFu does it, not sure how Flink does it's job but it also seems very colorfull and has good character animation.

There sure is some cool and good looking games for the Amiga :) It is easy to see that it boosted superior graphics in the 80s, when you look at the other console/computers from that era.
