Remeber listening to this masterpiece on a compiltaion disk of maniacs of noise music on the amiga. Was amazed of how someone was able to make this music on the amiga way back then.. and still is! :)
The game was fascinating as the different intros. The 3d flying sessions were outstanding, expecially in the last level where there was a rotating castle floating in the sky
Damals hab ich es mit Begeisterung gespielt. Also soweit ich mich erinnern kann. Aber seien wir mal ehrlich: gut gealtert ist das Spiel nicht. Im Gegensatz zu zB Another World. Es ist außerdem schade das es in Vergessenheit geraten ist. Heutzutage denken bei Unreal alle an den Ego-Shooter.
I found my way here after hearing the title track to Toy Story (Sega Genesis/Mega Drive), which was made on a 4-channel Amiga by Traveler's Tales. They then had to figure out how to get it to play in software on the Sega console given a Z80, a DAC, and a paltry 8 kB of RAM. Long story short, they split the 8 kB and blasted sample data from the 68000 to one 4 kB buffer while the Z80 read from the other buffer. The original Amiga versions of the Toy Story title and credits screens are out there on the internet somewhere. Anyway, that's what got me into Amiga music. What a great sound chip.
The music is awesome, I'm still looking for this game to my Amiga 500 in the original box release, I still own the original Commodore 64 and Amiga 500 computers + games - especially the Commodore 64 games on the tapes and disks, and I was born in june of 1983. Greetings from Vantaa, Finland 🇫🇮. 😺👍🕹️
Music and sfx are equally beautiful in game but you had to choose either-one.. it was my amiga showcase back then, truly amazing gfx / sfx and good gameplay..
I have played this back at the time it was an Amazingly cool game both sounds and visuals were so far ahead of its time i remember this music and pictures just traveled us to another world in our imagination
tässä on ehkäpä kaunein amiga musiikki kapple. kyl täytyy sanoa et nykyäänkin nämä amiga tietokoneissa on vielä "sitä" jotain mitä nyky tietokoneissa ei vältänättä ole. ainakin amigat säästyy kyllä kaiken maailman tietokone viiruksista.
This is an amazing soundtrack. Ive cut it till 1:50, and I read Warhammer 40000 books while listening to the track. Try reading Inquisitor Eisenhorn novels and Gideon Ravenor novels with this music, it adds SOOOOOO much atmosphere to the Grim Dark Future of the 41st millennium!
I can also recommend a jungle remix version of this tune www.mirsoft.info/gmb/music_info.php?id_ele=MTM3NTc= It's in amiga mod-file format, VLC will do to play it, although i would recommend DeliPlayer
Nothing of this 13 year old video is hardware sourced. Later on audio started to come from real hardware, but still-images are still sourced from downloads from various websites or in case of game screens, WinUAE.
On an actual Amiga and on a proper Amiga CRT Monitor it uses an Interlace mode that it did in High Resolulition meant it looked HD. Check it out on an actual machine.
This game was literally unreal at the time - thank god I was born when C64s and Amigas came out - the best times ever .
im honestly so jealous... im born in the 90s...at least ive experienced another legendary gaming era
The quality of the digitized samples is amazing on this track. Few games had such amazing intro tracks in 1990.
That's true. And did you know that The Pawn had a high quality music track, even in 1985.
This music impresses me just as much today as when I heard it on my amiga back in 1990. Fantastic...
Yeah, when something is made good once, it stays good forever.

I loved every single 8/16 bit game. A a lot of emotions was put to them. Every sound track was kicking ass. Especially amiga ones.
ahhh, this music hits my heart now, my childhood...
It was really amazing to see an Arcade game in the early 90s on an Amiga 500. This makes it somehow similiar to Shadow of the Beast.
Splendid theme, one of my favourites along with the original Shadow of the Beast.
Beautiful colors, beautiful music!
What a game in its day, it was unreal !
This is, what I call Nostalgy!
btw, check ”Michael Moorcock - Lord of the spiders” if you are looking for that cover image ;)
Never played the game but WOW that is some nice intro music!
Unfortunately, the game didn't live up to the intro in terms of quality.
The game was fascinating as the different intros. The 3d flying sessions were outstanding, expecially in the last level where there was a rotating castle floating in the sky
I love this music intro and this picture!!!
Das Kultspiel überhaupt, super Musik, 1990 - Wahnsinn ;-)

Outstanding quality from Charles. He later made a lot of soundtracks for NFS series.
i really loved this game & my amiga respective my early years of gaming :-)
The music is awesome,
I'm still looking for this game to my Amiga 500 in the original box release,
I still own the original Commodore 64 and
Amiga 500 computers + games -

amiga και streetfighter φιλαρακι
Weird to see that screen again without the HAM screen shimmer. Fab tune.
very beautiful theme
MINDBLOWN... I always wondered why the first game was called Unreal "Gold"... There was this game before it.
Never played it but the main theme music is awesome :)
great music
One of the best!!!
sick tune. Amiga world did really was another thing for the time. Shame how the dream ended
Of course Maniacs of Noise are behind this!
Beautiful
the 16 bit precursor to the glitch mob's drink the sea album. The pan flutes and entire drum palette feel like they were ripped wholesale from here

kylläpä nuo virukset osas olla kiusana ihan jo amiga aikaanki.
saddam virus oli ehkä ikävin mihinkä tuli amigalla törmättyä.
nice game, beautiful music and hires graphics
Reminds me of the final battle of the guardian dragon from shelcoof in panzer dragoon zwei. Simply mesmerising like John Tesh.
Superbe intro. Je n'avais pas trop accroche sur le jeu mais qu'importe :)
This is an amazing soundtrack. Ive cut it till 1:50, and I read Warhammer 40000 books while listening to the track. Try reading Inquisitor Eisenhorn novels and Gideon Ravenor novels with this music, it adds SOOOOOO much atmosphere to the Grim Dark Future of the 41st millennium!
For a rather creepier 40K track, I'd recommend the title track from the Amiga version of Space Hulk. It's mesmerizing.
Reminds me of Shadow of the beast
From the time when video game music was still GREAT
2:13
I remember this scene. The game freezed out here so I never had the chance to play it...but this picture is memorable. What kind of game is this btw?
same as shadow of the beast.... all shine and no gameplay
@Shocky303 it still actually is. and fits perfectly epic's unreal
This intro theme is amazing! Anyone knows where to get a high defintion version of this picture / art?

I think your best bet is to search for the box cover art via Google image search using large size filter. Don't expect miracles though.
Any connection to Epic's FPS and 3D engine? I always felt there was...
Dukefazon None
Part platform / part 3d shooter game as far as I recall.
You recall correctly.
the music
cults songs
what was this game about? youtube just suggested this randomly but the artwork looks great.
That time where pixelization was art.
it was an interlaced picture. It looked a lot better on the Amiga than here on UA-cam.
@@PeterFreitag Yep, I remember ! I loved my Amiga 128D with 1 Mega RAM !
I can also recommend a jungle remix version of this tune
www.mirsoft.info/gmb/music_info.php?id_ele=MTM3NTc=
It's in amiga mod-file format, VLC will do to play it, although i would recommend DeliPlayer
Is this image from an Emulator? On original hardware this is in Interlaced HiRes....

Kuokka77 Nice man where to download the full soundtrack of this game?
UnExoticA has files, in original music formats www.exotica.org.uk/wiki/Unreal_(game)
As the original artwork very probably isn't HD, I guess you will have a hard time finding that. Sorry.
Was HD for the time. I remember seeing my TV struggle to put out that definition of picture.
On an actual Amiga and on a proper Amiga CRT Monitor it uses an Interlace mode that it did in High Resolulition meant it looked HD.
Check it out on an actual machine.
the good old days where UbiSoft was not a sack of shitte
Could someone recommend me other similar game soundtracks from the same era?
Shadow Of The Beast and Wrath Of The Demon (both composed by David Whittaker) come to mind.
Check out the Turrican II soundtrack for epicness. Also Leander and Agony had very haunting sountracks. Good ol' Psygnosis.
Shufflepuck Cafe.
Ohh... If you want something less known but cool, check Atoll from the game Waterworld, composed by Dean Evans
The graphics reminds me of Avatar.
story hide in the music...
No...
Unreal Gold because it's Unreal with better graphics.

Sounds like CD, not like Paula.
