Bomb Jack Beer Edition - The enhanced Amiga port of an Arcade classic is finally here!!


It's rather bleak outside but who cares as just moments ago Graeme Cowie has just announced through the main Commodore Amiga Facebook group that his work in progress enhanced Amiga port of 'Bomb Jack' , as ' Bomb Jack Beer Edition ', has been finished and ready for Amiga gamers around the world. A game that has been in beta for some time with numerous bug fixes and changes is now in a good enough state to be enjoyed by many!


This game that has been worked on by a team of people (listed in the credits) and is one of many ports of the original Arcade classic, but an overhauled fan version which is not far off as good as the original Arcade (Some bugs still left). In fact it has the added sweet extras of added backgrounds from other famous land marks and fabulous other features which makes this one of the best Amiga releases for some time.



Current Bug list
A lit bomb sometimes appears in top left of the screen.
Using accelerator cards are known to freeze the game (don't know why)
Getting killed and getting a bomb will skip the next round
You can't remove initials when entering your name in the hi-score
You may experience odd graphics glitches here and there
Enemies don't behave exactly like the arcade
Other things...
