Hii...
I am trying to find out the name of an arcade game I played years ago. It's a side scrolling, fantasy hack n slash. My memory is rusty on it, but I'll relate what I can recall.
The standout feature was the magical ability to change your character's form at the press of a button, so long as you had enough energy. One form was a tiny little guy riding a giant's back. Second form was a tiny little guy riding a tiger (maybe it was a tiger?) and you could attack with a sort of chain whip/flail. I think on both of these forms, your mount could be killed, but your useless little dwarf guy could survive. Seems like there was another standard form; maybe a basic fantasy warrior. And then, rarely, you could grab an item that would temporarily turn you into a flying dragon with a devastating breath weapon.
And yes. I know that this sounds like Golden Axe, especially the "dwarf riding a giant" part. And it very well could be in the Golden Axe family of games. But I've looked at screen shots of Golden Axe and some of its sequels, and the scale of the characters is too large. I mean, the graphical style of the game was like Golden Axe, but with the "camera" pulled further back.
Anyone have a clue?
Thanks..!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
