Title: Team 17?
Post by: Hotshot on September 07, 2006
hey all,

They used to be great Devolper on making great game like Super frogs, Alien Breeds, Project X, Body blow and more.

Now they just make Worm and more worm......sigh....

Would be nice if they make Next Gen of Super frogs, Alien Breeds, Project X, Body blow and more on PSP as I am sure they will be sell out when people buy the name of it....

Alien Breeds was great as I used to remmy when there was 3D Starfields that go away from you then come toward ya.....Fantanics.

Superfrog was cool - in fact i was playing it just the other day . . . Using WinUAE (the Amiga Emulator) - it is soo coool!

I have several (REAL) Amigas but I can emulate nearly everything using WinUAE. I finished Superfrog and Project X a few years ago.

:o
Project X had to be (one of the most beautiful) and most difficult shoot 'em ups ever! I don't know anyone who got to disk 3, let alone finished it !

If my memory serves me well, Team 17 was formed from people involved with the Public Domain company 16-Bit.

Yes, that's correct Clyde. You're thinking of Martin Brown.
I wonder if you know which famous demo team the main artist was in?

Well I know that Dr Awesome of Crusaders, is Bjorn Lynne the musician of Team17.
All I know is the Rico Holmes was in a group called Andromeda.

@Shockwave: Doh! I never knew that and I was a big fan of Crusaders.
@Drewpee: Thanks for putting me right, and they were the only PD Company that I used too.

Ah, that's cool! Thanks mate. You know, that must hae taken some doing on the Amiga, purely in terms of the memory it would have used.
