    Old Game: Amiga - "Walker" Platform shooter

    Anyone remember the old game called "walker"

    What a quality game!!

    It used to be one of my Favs

    Control the movement with the Keyboard and control the guns with the mouse

    I remember it being very difficult though... hehe, I could only get to the 2nd level!

    There was one similar called Killing Game Show where you were in a walker type robot thing and you had to get to the top of each level as quick as possible as the area got flooded from bottom up as time went on (kinda like flood)

    I used to love the Psygnosis games, sound on Shadow of the Beast is still up there in my all time favourite game music, also the music on the intro to Blood Money.

    I remember it .... I remember the lemmings level inspired by it aswell on Lemmings 2. I loved how those were the quality games and they were genuinely hard ! So many games now are so average in difficulty *rants*
