Sorry, I use the email notification feature and I didn't get one for your second to last post, and didn't notice the thread since this forum moves so fast. I've been meaning to make a cutting post about your tardiness, but I guess I'll let it slide.

Game later as soon as I can think of one.

Ok this will do:

It's a little tricky so I'll accept either this game or it's sequel.

Still way too early. Also the game I have in mind is an out and out platformer.

Sorry, but the years blur into one another that long ago. I presume that the sequel was also released on the Spectrum.

I'm not certain but I think the game would likely have appeared on the C64 and Amstrad. Nothing more advanced.

I played Ghosts 'n' Goblins and if I remember correctly it was a relatively recent game, though I don't know if it had any sequel.

Ghosts 'n' Goblins 2 perhaps

The sequel was called Ghouls and Ghosts IIRC. Warmer in genre terms than the earlier guesses, but still wrong.

Jetpac?

or there was what was widely regarded as the ultimate platform game, but i think it came out on the BBC first - then got ported to other platforms like the Spectrum/Amstrad/C64.

As a complete OT remark i played M.U.L.E last night for the first time in oh.....13 years or so, it was on my PC running a C64 emulator.

It was good(but my girlfriend wasn't impressed! - spoilt with Morrowind on xbox i think ), but if that is a real representation of the C64 version, the Atari 8bit had a much better graphical and musical version. Ah the old Atari.......may it rest in peace

May I stress once again how late in the Spectrum era this game was. It was not released in the 80s.

New clue: You were being taken somewhere you didn't want to go by some captors, but you escaped using a parachute on the flight. Now you must fight your way home.

IIRC it was, and is hence, perhaps unsurprisingly, incorrect.

Surely every game in the nineties on the Speccy had at least an ST/Amiga version?

Well it's very early 90s, and I never saw an Amiga version, but a quick check reveals Buck is in fact correct.

I'm not sure it will help you much though.

No. It's a real platformer, no other game elements.
