Amiga Longplay [012] Hugo (Finnish, part 2)

  • 7 лет назад
Ive recorded all the different language versions I could get my hands on and will use the same comment for all these longplays:\r
\r
The original version is Danish and is the best one in my opinion as it has all the things some of the other versions dont. Like the forest panel, it has some plants/bushes/trees/whatever on it, the kids at the end talk, and birds fly in the love animation. These 3 things are only in the Danish version for some reason.\r
\r
The only version that doesnt have speech during the first part of the animation when climbing the mountain is the Finnish.\r
\r
All versions have one damaged frame in the mountain climbing animation, except the Swedish one, its flawless.\r
\r
Other differences are for example:\r
\r
When he jumps in the forest: in Danish he says yahoo!, in Finnish its hipaaay (or however it might be spelled), he says nothing in the German and Swedish versions.\r
\r
When jumping over the holes on the mountain level, he says the same thing as he does in the forest in the Danish version. The Finnish and Swedish versions uses the same Danish voice (weird they didnt use them in the forest level as well then, where he said nothing in Swedish and something different in Finnish). In German he says yippie! in a very unenthusiastic way (so its the same here, why not also use this for the forest jumping where he said nothing?).\r
\r
The amount of ropes are not always the same either. The Danish version has 4, the German, Finnish, Swedish, and Spanish versions have only 3. Another weird thing is the Spanish version have its 3 ropes labeled 3, 6, 9, lol, wtf?\r
\r
The part in the forest where the witch presses a button. in the Danish version, they have labels under them, saying DRILLE on all 3, but in the other versions, there are no labels under them, instead there are icons/symbols above the buttons.\r
\r
The picture before the menu looks different in all versions, except German and Swedish, they are exly the same.\r
\r
There are probably more differences, but enough with that. The next thing I noticed was some hidden-in-plain-sight messages, sort of. One is a name (NICHOLA) on the boulder animations first frame, so very hard to notice unless you record and advance frame by frame (saw a similar thing in Stardust). The other one is a two letter word in the bottom left corner (HUGO POWER). The third one is on the wooden part to the right (Nölb was here too!).\r

The SEXY witch (especially when she lies on the catapult-thingy) can become either a big bird, an ugly old hag, or tied up to be shot out of the mountain.\r
\r
I wonder if the second part of the game exist for the Spanish version, as I could only find the first part (train+plane). Only the Swedish and German versions came with both sets as one, while all other versions have two separate sets.\r
\r
One thing that is kinda unfair is the game decides if you will win or lose when it loads the Witch part. All ropes can either be win or fail, not both. In Wiki it says 2 ropes saves the family, the other one shoots you out of the mountain, but thats not true (I used save-states). I had to reload the witch part several times in some of the longplays before the game would let me win - again, if one rope defeated the witch, the rest of them would as well, and vice versa.\r
