Developed by Images and distributed by US Gold, Shadow Dancer came in 1991 on the Amiga.

Converted a little more than one year after arriving in the arcades, Shadow Dancer is a beat’ EM all.

Graphically well in lower part of the original version, the title of US Gold uses sixteen colors in a window with honorable dimensions. Extremely fortunately lack of colors, inherent in the title published by US Gold, does not prevent Shadow Dancer Amiga version from being faithful to the Arcade version; and one can only be delighted some.

From a sound point of view, it is good whole, since the musics are of excellent quality and stick well to the action. The sound effects and other voices digits are of honourable quality.

Animation is not remains about it since the multidirectional scrolling is fluid.

Side handiness, one can say that it is faithful to the Arcade, since one can carry out in a fraction of a second of the jumps of platform in platform and connect jumps without the least difficulty. A small flat, all the same, concerning the jumps; indeed, for lack of precision, certain jumps forwards on the spot transform some times into jumps and screw and poured, which can result in to put to you in critical situations.

The difficulty is at the level of the version Arcade, it is thus extremely high. Only the best among you will see of it the end without resorting to the backups of state. By advance, I draw my cap to them.

In short, Shadow Dancer was seen offering a very honest conversion to our preferred machine and it is so much better. Missing certainly colors, but faithful graphically, proposing accrocheuses musics and equipped with one animation for the height, Shadow Dancer on Amiga should point out the excellent moments to you that you have pass on the terminal of Arcade at the time.
