Hello Amigans

Does someone remembers the name of this game?

It is a game in wich you stay along the mountains desert plains and you have to jump with ramps and turn your head and body to avoid that the rocks of the mountains fall over you so you turn around and jump avoiding it.
It is a very adictive,luscious and tricky very tricky game.

Does someone remember the name of this game?

Is for play it under Spectrum emulation on AmigaKit Amiga emulation package.

Hope someone can help because I adore this game is a very difficult and special Speccy emulation game in the past on my trustful cassette.

If someone remind the name I will give you the prize of my highscores haha...

Good luck with the searching

P.D:It is not lost it is downloadable surely on www.worldofspectrum.org

@newlight

Is it an early game or late game, 80's or 90's?

Need more info.

Are you on foot, bike, car?
Is it side scrolling?
etc

Is it something like the BMX section of California Games?

@Xmas87

You are on foot and the personage is a drawing of a skeleton type on man.

It's side scrolling but the perspective is overhead on 2D and 3D awesoneness.

It's not like the BMX section of California Games is something like of its own.

It's like Break-Thru but on feet and avoiding rocks and as I said jumping over ramps to pass different original phases.

@Rob

It is a late game of the 80s circa probably 88-89 year.

Can you remember a game like this or something similar?

Thank you all.

@carvedeye

No carvedeye is something between the ambient of Line Of Fire SEGA and the spectrum game Jumping.

In others words something as I described above in ,is something very amazing
between puzzle and arcade game type.

Is between 2D and 3D in mountain rocks and desert plains.Your goal is to avoid to crash with the rocks "cantos" en espa´nol and destroy some things to pass to the next level.

What's the prize of this? To play a unique wonderful game of Spectrum on the Amiga community emulators zone!!!

Anything more?

I remember a side scrolling game with Aztek or Mayan setting where you had to whack your way through enemies, avoid boulders and the like.
It had wonderful GFX for the time.

Are there any chances it is it?

@ErikBauer

ummmm.... yes there are any chances but I don't remember at all.

Has the game black and yellow colours?

Representing the black field and the yellow rock mountains I mean.

Is it from 1988-1989?

Uh I am not sure.

Have you got the name of this name?

ErikBauers proposal seems to be Aztec Challenge, which was not available for Sinclair Spectrum...

I remember playing a game in the late 80's on a mates spectrum where you had to climb a yellow mountain and move your arms and legs to avoid falling boulders, can't remember the name right now though but I do remember thinking it wasn't very good at the time, there was no black field though as far as I remember, just yellow mountain.

Was just asking for more description but after pondering it my best guess is Renegade III.

The lost Spectrum gem lays nearby the lost C=64 gem place....



[EDIT]

However if it was a Spectrum game, send a question to Speccy sites or Speccy groups on Facebook.

I think they will be glad to help.

I can't remember if the name was Aztec Challenge, but I clearly remember I played it on the Speccy and yes, it was yellow field with black GFX over it.

Any chances the game we're looking for was CliffHanger?
