Putty Amiga
Putty (also known as Silly Putty or Look Out It’s…Putty) is a game developed by System 3 and released in 1992 for the Amiga. It was also released on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1993, under the name Super Putty in North America and Europe and as Putty Moon (パティームーン) in Japan. An Amiga CD32 version was published in 1994 as Super Putty.
Putty Moon, the place where Putty lives, has been taken over by an evil wizard named Dazzledaze. Dazzledaze planned to capture the Putties and ship them to Earth as gum. To save his friends and oust the evil wizard, Billy Putty enlists the help of some robots (“bots”) to build a skyscraper that will reach up to Putty Moon.
Putty Amiga
n Putty, the player controls a blue blob with eyes. Putty has many moves that he could use to attack enemies or to navigate around the level. These abilities include being able to stretch out upwards, downwards, left and right to access far-off ledges. He also has the ability to inflate.
This allows him to provide a cushioned landing for any falling bots. Over-inflation also acts as a “smart bomb”, with Putty bursting, killing all of the enemies on the screen, whilst reducing his health in the process.
