The Perils of Willy for me. Nice surprise.

Is there an English language version of Piggy available?

Re: The best modern Speccy game beginning with P: vote
I thought I'd decided, but then I gave Pre-Zu a proper try. It's fantastic. More thinking needed.
Re: The best modern Speccy game beginning with P: vote
I share your frustration. Pre-Zu is really good. And fact we have faithfull conversion of Prince of Persia on the list doesn't help too. It is hard choice this time.

Perils of Willy for me too. Really took me back to the hay-day of speccy gaming. Love it.
1 - Perils of Willy.
2 - Pushbot
3 - Prince of Persia
I must admit I am confused by the C64 blobs over buttocks and side-boobs. Particularly when you can easily click on the link to see the hardcore pic in all its deformed pixelated pervy-ness

1 - Phaeton
2 - Parachute
3 - Pixel Quest
Okay. Phaeton. It's an original take on the thrusty style avoid-em-up. It's hard as nails from the start, but with a bit of patience, it's a great feeling to be gliding the previously cumbersome ship through the obstacles. Graphics are good and the near silence makes it more atmospheric; this was one of Ralf's early games, and I reckon if it came later on, he would have put an AY track from the Russian demo scene on it. Great game. Love it. Still haven't completed it.
Parachute is just all round great looking and sounding arcade fun.
Pixel Quest is the kind of game that would obsess even the most casual player.

What a hard choice.
Special mention for ‘Perils’ and ‘Parachute’.
Surprised by its gameplay.

1) Pre-Zu (for novelty)
2) Prince of Persia
3) Phaeton
And I made personal note that my next game should have title starting by letter E,I,Q or Y. Definitely not by P.

Re: The best modern Speccy game beginning with P: vote
I marked Pre-Zu down on the graphics, even though I find them charming. On a different day, I might have actually added points for the presentation. Quite a few of these games could be my #4.
Heh. Best to give "S" a miss as well!And I made personal note that my next game should have title starting by letter E,I,Q or Y. Definitely not by P.

Am going to have to play some of these before voting. I'm not sure there's an obvious stand-out for me...
