![]() The most exciting development was still to come. We then added the sticker book – a way to earn downloadable content for free. We didn’t stop there, though, with the original music re-mastered for the modern gamer, but still retaining the charm of the original. We reworked everything from the original Amiga data files, redrawing sprites, re-working level backgrounds, balancing gameplay, and adding in new features not present in the original, such as challenge mode. And so, it remained, locked away for decades.Ī few years ago, we thought, “perhaps there’s a place for Putty again”, and since then, a swathe of brilliant and unique retro-styled indie games have been popping up, and all the while, we were happily working away on a re-imagining of Putty Squad. What came next was a crushing blow – retailers weren’t taking Amiga games anymore, and we had this brilliant game ready to go. We even had demos on cover mounted disks, with gamers playing over and over, setting high scores and sharing their stories of Putty’s adventures with their friends. Sadly, the 16 bit era on home computers came to an end very quickly, just as we were finishing Putty Squad. Super Putty was a huge success, and due to the huge support from gamers, we got to work immediately on a sequel that offered the same frenetic gameplay, but in a whole new setting for Putty’s next great adventure. Its cutting edge graphics and catchy soundtrack were well received, with the press awarding scores upwards of 90%. ![]() Way back in the early ’90s, we released Super Putty, a break from the traditional platform genre that we thought had become a little stale. He is also able to inflate and then use a flow of hot air to scale heights, but only for a limited amount of time.For over 30 years, System 3 has created and published some really unique and exciting games, and we are proud of each and every release. Putty can for example launch rockets, throw bombs, activate a shield or summon a pod that allows free movement anywhere in the level for 30 seconds. These are restored to a bar on the right side of the screen where they can be selected. There are different types of items and these can be absorbed for later use. Not all available abilities are available immediately, they are upgraded or become available by collecting stars in levels. He has different types of attacks that can be upgraded throughout the game, ranging from a simple punch to electric shocks and darts. He can also jump and flatten completely to avoid enemies. He can stretch in all four main directions to reach objects or climb platforms. To complete a level, all other blobs must be freed, then the area can be exited through a door.Īs an amorphous blob, Putty has a number of abilities. ![]() The game plays like a side-scrolling platformer, but at a slower pace with more emphasis on exploration and puzzle elements to juggle different abilities to reach captured characters, even if there are many enemies present. ![]() Just like in the original game, the player controls the blue character Putty through different levels where he must free red characters who have been taken prisoner by the invading forces. It has more modern graphics and sound, but still closely resembles the original game in overall design. Putty Squad is a remake of the 1994 SNES game Putty Squad. ![]()
