Elevator Action - JOTD's newest of Arcade to Amiga conversions has been released

An early morning heads up for you all, as we've just found out through Saberman that the previously teased Arcade to Amiga conversion of the 1980's Arcade game of Elevator Action by Taito Corp, has finally been released by JOTD through his itch io page. The same creator behind other awesome Arcade to Amiga conversions such as Donkey Kong, Galaga, Phoenix and Moon Patrol 500. To coincide with this news, we've got some new footage of the game as well as a download below.

For those of you who have never played Elevator Action before in the Arcades or any of the system ports such as the Amstrad CPC, Commodore 64, Famicom, Game Boy, MSX, NES, PlayStation 4, SG-1000, or ZX Spectrum.

It is a platform shooter game released in arcades by Taito in 1983. The player assumes the role of Agent 17, a spy infiltrating a 30-story building filled with elevators and enemy agents who emerge from closed doors. The goal is to collect secret documents from specially marked rooms, then escape the building"
