Bagman - An Arcade classic as an Amiga remake reaches V2C


Another Amiga heads up and no it's not related to STALKER, as we've recently been told that Jotd's work in progress Amiga remake of the 1982 game 'Bagman', has reached version 2C and can be downloaded from the main website below. This game was previously mentioned on IRN, and according to the creator is a GPL remake of the excellent Valadon Automation arcade game, dissambeled so the guard movement is more or less the same, as well as elevators.


The objective of the game is to maneuver the bagman through various mine shafts, picking up money bags and placing them in a wheelbarrow at the surface of the mine. The player must avoid pursuing guards, moving ore carts, and descending elevators. The player may temporarily stun the guards by striking them with a pickaxe or by dropping money bags on them when they are below the player on the same ladder. The player may move between the three screens which make up the level via shafts and on the surface (wiki).
