The Story and Games of Gremlin: Part 2 - The Amiga Years, Zool and Actua - Kim Justice
Added 2017-02-09 17:11:01 +0000 UTCHere you go folks! Part 2 of the Gremlin video - covering the Amiga years, as well as the Actua Sports line at the end. You can also expect to see the likes of Zool, Switchblade, and the Lotus series...these are the middle/successful years where there's not a whole lot of drama, so it's a pretty game-centric video - but it'll all build up to the end. Enjoy!

Love the new branding, it's looking more and more professional, and all around AWESOME! Also good choice of PWEI kick to kill! .. Another fine product of the early 1990s.

That friend emigrated and I've sadly lost touch with him, so the memories are curiously undiluted by the time in between, also with a pang of regret. I also played Lotus 2 and Supercars 2 for the first time at that friends house. It's weird how I don't hanker after going back to that place or time, but I do hanker after the feeling that the games gave me. Venus and Supercars 2 are both games I regularly revisit via emulators. The same is true for Space Crusade. I got Harlequin for my birthday in 1992 after playing a demo, but after getting out of the first level I realised that the best design had obviously been put on the first level. I never managed to locate even 1 heart piece, and of course getting a walkthrough was impossible unless you happened to buy the right mag with the right walkthrough on the right month. I loved Zool, but as with a lot of Sonic inspired games, it lost it's shine after a short amount of play time. It just didn't quite have the magic of the Blue speedy one himself. I also love the idea of being a member of the Kimmunity. What a great word! Thanks Kim, awesome as ever - in the top drawer of all Youtube Factual content in my opinion. It's a crying shame you don't have 100,000 subscribers and a chunk more Patreon support. If anyone ought to make a living at this it's you.
