Amiga Forgotten Worlds.... good/bad/other ?

The game would have been far better if firing was automatic and holding the button just allowed you to stay in place and change the direction of fire.

Not really.  It would have made it playable.

Yeah that always pissed me off, especially with arcade ports.  I had plenty of one button sticks around, but I preferred to play games with a SMS pad.  I only ever got to use button 2 on a couple of games.
Nowadays, I play all my amiga games with a custom arcade stick with configurable buttons.  Having buttons for up and down helps a lot, but it's no substitute for proper multibutton support .

When I had my original A500 as a kid in the late 80's/early 90's, I don't think I would have given keyboard controls a fair try, especially after playing so many console games that my friends owned.
Today I can play just about anything, even Street Fighter II, on a keyboard with very little trouble, and it baffles me that more games on the Amiga never supported keybord controls.
