On the search for a Cracktro from the 90s
category: general [glöplog]
Hey folks,
I'm desperately searching for a Cracktro from the 90s. I believe it was on Amiga (and I'd scratch my head if that was on C64...)
One of the things that I remember is that there was a guy running from right to left on the bottom of the screen and it looked a bit like this:

From my memories, I also tried to quickly hack the "main theme" of the Cracktro into some Music software. It sounded something like this: (... and sorry, I'm not a musician)
Cracktro.mp3
Can you help me finding it?

The music is definitely Comic Bakery.
I remember a cracktro with a running figure like this, but from C-64. I think it was Dominators but I'm not sure.

Wow. You're right! That's the music!!!
But which is the Cracktro using it???

If that is the Cracktro you mean than this is not the one I'm searching for.
But maybe you're right and it was C-64...?
Maybe see if any of these screenshots under "featured in" look familiar...?

Unfortunately not. No sign of a running guy there... :-/
I'd usually answer "Hetero/SAC?" but this one, interesting!
I only remember Accession running man crack intro at the moment, but i guess that's not it https://demozoo.org/productions/232027/
Maybe the cracktro to shadow of the beast II and the running man you remember was in the game
wait, this one actually has a running man in the beginning (sotb style)

Well uhm... no, I do not have my stupid heel persona aymore. So love to Accession.

Obviously not. There's no running guy in this one.

The one from Angels? No no.
I'm pretty sure about this running man with "bad RGB convergence", so no luck so far....
But it's also totally crazy that this music burned itself into my brain over 35 years ago. I hadn't heard it again until today!
did you check the scoopex one? it has a running man from left to right and the music?

Yes, I did. But that's not the right one.
Crazy how often that music has been in use....!
There’s intros using Comic Bakery tune on Atari ST too…
...and of course on c64.
Hm... the running man with bad convergence still remains a mystery.
Maybe I'm mixing up music and gfx of different Cracktros, but I'm sure that it was on Amiga (or C64), because I never had any other machines.

Not a cracktro, of course, but could it be this part of Voyage?
