Talisman

Mike Dailly

Status: Preview, Findability: 3/5

Yet another title enters the archives, and this time by the development team behind Lemmings on the Amiga.

This was obtained from DMA Design’s own tribute webpage, and was released into the world by Mike Dailly for people to check out.

It is a sideways scrolling SEU with some borrowed sprites from Armalyte due to the fact that Mike had no graphic artist to help him.

It is a rather small play area, though there is some nice graphics and parts of the level close in and out to try and crush your player. The attack waves are quite simple at the moment, though there is a element of playability present in this early demo.

This game was created after Menace, and got Mike the contract to do Balistix on the C64. The game got shelved for unknown reasons. But its possible that Blood Money was started instead, which Mike states that the game had a few bits from this game.

This really is as far as the game ever got, so you won’t find anything more to look at. A promising looking title, but sadly never to be, but at least we had Blood Money! :)

A relic from DMA designs and a nice one too. Case closed…
