Toobin on the Amstrad CPC - longplay and (live) review!

Fun little arcade conversion, not without it's collision detection problems and bugs, oh and 4 colour graphics ... but still quite playable and OK for a quick blast.

For this first time I've recorded my review live whilst playing the game! I may not do this again because I found the resultant video generated by WinApe emulator to end up being a bit slower than the mic audio I recorded in a separate program, so still had to end up making several edits of the voice over to sync back in - grrr! Still, whilst not the most professional sounding of reviews (mine never are anyway!) it's interesting to hear how much I get into the game or not - frustration and swearing included!

By the way, I later found out that in the arcade original if you do collect all the floating balloon letters you get a special code on completing the game where you win a free t-shirt! Sadly of course the offer expired in December 1988 ;-)
