Oswald

OsWALD is a 1988 Danish action video game released for the Amiga by Starvision International. It has a simple premise, based around a teddy bear jumping on ice floes. The game saw a release in the United States by Centaur Software as OsWALD of the Ice Floes in October 1989. In 1989, an updated version was released, entitled Super OsWALD, which added a multiplayer mode. It was also published for the Commodore 64 and MS-DOS by SilverRock Productions in January 1990. The game was produced by Ivan Sølvason and designed by Esben Krag Hansen, Jesper V. Jørgensen, Mikael Balle and Jesper Kyd for use as a game controlled over a push-button telephone for TV 2's Friday night prime time programme Eleva2ren. The game sold well in Denmark due to exposure in the programme. Running on an Amiga 2000, it allowed people to participate from home using the number keys on their landline telephone as controls. The programme also used the Super OsWALD version from 26 January to May 1990. Sølvason later designed Hugo the TV Troll along with Niels Krogh Mortensen, also for Eleva2ren and using the same push-button telephone concept.
