1995 Mirage
Platform: Amiga CD32
A short entry thanks to Grzegorz Antosiewicz of a cool isometric action game with a mix of strategy, where you control between 1-3 tank drones and must complete various objectives including destroying a number of marked buildings and other targets.
One of the main features of the game was the destructable environments, where some walls would remain solid and bulletproof to prevent you reaching your goals too soon.
The title was previewed in 1995 via Generation 4, Amiga Action and Amiga Power magazines, but its believed that the game was cancelled due to Commodore’s bankruptcy in 1994 and the rising popularity of other platforms of the time, such as the Sony PlayStation. It is unknown how far the game had got by the point of cancellation.
The game would eventually see release in 1996 on the PC and PlayStation platforms under the name of “Bedlam“. But the original Amiga development remains lost at present. Could something of the game be recovered and shown, and how different is it to the final release of Bedlam?
Thanks to Grzegorz Antosiewicz for the information and scans below.
