Depthcharge
Amiga version of classic 1977 arcade game - sink the enemy submarines using depth charges.
Classic arcade game first time published in 1977 by Gremlin Industries for Sega VIC Dual system board - player controls a destroyer that tries to sink enemy submarines using only depth charges. Of course the subs are not unarmed - they have mines that slowly ascent to the surface and torpedoes that are quite fast. The subs travel with different speeds and on different depths, so the arcade part is to find a best moment to drop the depth charge so it would submerge to right depth in right time. To make things harder you can’t just drop them constantly - only 4 depth charges can be in the water at the same time, so once there are four of them you have to wait until one of them hits the target or disappears before dropping another one.
While the graphic side was obviously improved (which was not that great challenge since original game was using monochromatic monitors) rest of the game remained the same, which was a shame since there were opportunities to add something to the original.
