Name a couple of games

[motorollin]

I've just remembered a couple of games I used to enjoy playing, but I can't remember their names.

The first one is a really old one. You were in a maze made of floppy disks and you had to push the floppy disks to make them slide until they hit the edge of the screen or another disk. The idea was to hit viruses with the disks to destroy them.

The other game was a lode-runner clone which had loads of extra features, including your character having the ability to jump and hang on to the edge of platforms like in Prince of Persia.

If anyone can help me identify these games I'd be grateful :-)

I've just remembered that the Lode Runner game was TurboLode 2. I actually registered it. You can download the game by clicking here and clicking the Oldies link.

I seem to think that the first game was by Tobias Richter, though I can't be sure.

Yeah I did try that, but it's not on there. It was a PD game, not commercial.

No that wasn't it. Similar "plot" though - you have to go inside the computer and remove the viruses. In the game I am thinking of you push the floppy disks and try to hit the viruses. When you pushed them your character made a kind of blowing noise.

Well I just got round to installing KingFisher and found the game by searching for "virus". It was Sys. I've just downloaded it form Aminet, and it was just how I remember it :-)
