Yes. (Late reply. )
We already wrote about Nosferatu (1994) and Cruel World (1993).
I found another one, German game Runen (1996).

Hell graphics are not good, but have some interesting engine possibilities.Norbert wrote: ↑October 7th, 2017, 5:41 pmYes. (Late reply. )

I think attached is the full version.
These checkpoints are invisible, like in PoP2.Norbert wrote:It has plenty of checkpoints throughout the level, so you don't have to restart the level over and over.
The manual (ANLEIT.TXT) says they're blue, and that they turn the kid into water.Norbert wrote:Purple potions allow you to pass gates.
And here is the sign about the potions:Ein blauer Zaubertrunk soll Sie bei Bedarf in Wasser verwandeln (?)
~~~
A blue magic drink should transform you into water when needed.
Note that you lose the blueness after going through grates.Das grüne ELIXIER erfrischt den Reisenden und lecket seine Wunden.
Das blaue gibt die Kraft eines alten Elementes, nutze es am Gitter und gegen das Feuer.
~~~
The green elixir refreshes the traveler and licks [heals] his wounds.
The blue gives the power of an old element, use it at grates and against the fire.
The crusher wall is also on this level. It's near a sign that you can't even read because of this trap... But at least a checkpoint is near.Norbert wrote:Has some PoP2 elements too, like the crushing wall.
Oh yeah. I found this out the hard way.Norbert wrote: In level 2 - yeah, I actually made it there - it has a trap with an Indiana Jones-like rolling boulder too.
You need to grab the ledge and wait for the ball to roll by, drink the potion, exit the screen, return to the screen with the boulder and have a second boulder push away the first.
Der erste Stein ...
..der sperrt Dich ein !
Muß etwa noch ein zweiter sein ???
~~~
The first stone blocks you!
There must also be a second one?
I found that out accidentally...Norbert wrote:And if gates have nothing above them, he can climb over them.
And this one was copied from the PoP2 flying heads.Norbert wrote:In that level, after killing an enemy its head floats away, then later you fight that head.
I couldn't complete level 3 yet.Norbert wrote:Very difficult fight, didn't win yet...
Another picture shows something oddly similar to PoP2 temple levels...Norbert wrote: You can see in the slideshow (SHOW.EXE) that the player even gets a gun.
They are just the shareware versions of those files that differ from the full version.Norbert wrote:Maybe some of the files in share/ need to be moved into the root (main) directory.
The full version can also be found on archive.org: https://archive.org/details/Runen
As I wrote (edited)...
...you can just kill the first guard, run past its head, kill the second guard, run past its head.
I finally found out how to get rid of the second head!Norbert wrote: ↑October 29th, 2017, 6:46 pm Then you end up in the leftmost room, which has a potion in its top-left.
The problem is that you cannot drink the potion without first killing the second head, because it follows you.
And the main problem with the heads is that they attack not just from the front but also the character's back.
