I cannot rate this game, as it seems to have broken the rules of the game jam for uploading a game feature enhancement update which was not created to address a game-breaking bug before the end of the public voting, by exploiting a loophole where the files were stored off itch.io instead of being uploaded directly to the site like the other entries. The only downloadable version as of the time of writing is the updated version uploaded yesterday, and not the version uploaded before the game jam deadline.

I've just come to rate this but can't see how to download the GameJam submitted version, only the new update. Be great if you could provide a link please as I don't think it would be fair to rate based on a newer version. Thanks!

Developer

I've added V1.1 to the download package now. Sorry for the confusion.

Tried the whd-load version on my A500 and liked it. Keep on the great work :)

Very nice presentation and music! Although the minimum specs do seem a bit high for what it is. I would probably leave all the promotional efforts until after the gamejam as I'm a bit confused if this is a genuine entry or an advert for a Kickstarter campaign. It plays well enough but not that original? I did manage to get an infinite loop error message somehow while playing.

Developer

Thanks for your comment! I already fixed an infinite-loop situation - hopefully yours. If you encounter it again please send me a screenshot with the memory offset.
The minimum specs are a stock A1200 because of AGA - but there will come a version for stock A500 as well. I can't get any lower. 馃槈
Regarding Kickstarter: can't it be booth? 馃檪 Depending on your skills you have about an hour of fun with this demo.

A really well made game with nice colorful graphics and awesome music! I do love Dynablaster/Bomberman but this did not really feel like it offered something new to the genre and it does feel more like an Amiga game rather than an arcade cabinet game. Not bad at all though but it could have benefited from a faster gameplay and the enemies could get through the barriers chasing you.

The do in later levels. 馃檪 A flying dragon chasing you directly is quite a challenge.  馃槈

I don't want to sound harsh but apart from AGA graphics and Chris' music there is nothing too inventive here. A typical "Bomber Man"/"Dyna Blaster" clone. I was not overwhelmed by playing. Solid but nothing I am looking forward to.

Of course I respect your opinion! But actually, I do a lot of things differently from the original (no timer, other power-ups, more player lives, etc.).  And I think my game is much more forgiving. But it may well be that not everyone likes that.
In any case, thanks for playing! 馃檪

Wonderful Bomberman Clone with great graphics & sound from Chris H眉lsbeck and Fabian del Priore. There is still a lot of potential, but we're sure that it will come in future releases. 馃檪

This genre can never be enough, and now it also benefits from AGA graphics and Chris Hulsbeck's sound. What more could you ask for ?

This game is brilliant. Both single player and multiplayer is full of arcade action with plenty of replay value. The scrolling playfield, meaty sound effects and addictive gameplay make it the best new Amiga game of 2026 in my view.

Thank you VERY much! 馃檪
