This is just from my own memory, so it may not be complete. Also it does
not include the games that were *marketed* by them, but not *made by them
(i.e. 'Spotlight' label; doesn't matter anyway, as those mostly weren't that
good)

By the way, anybody who discovered Amiga after Cinimaware disbanded, really
should go out of there way to try to find these games. Cinemaware really was
the symbol of the glory days of the Amiga, and they're stuff, I think, are
still some of the best games around.

Rocket Ranger (has nothing to do with vaporware 'Rocketeer')
It Came From the Desert
Wings
Tv Sports Football
Lord of the Rising Sun
Defender of the Crown
Three Stooges

I *think* that's about it. Anyone know some that I missed?

A few additions:
It Came from the Desert II: Antheads
TV Sports: Basketball
Developed by Cinemaware but released by Data East:
Bo Jackson Baseball (aka TV Sports: Baseball)
ABC's Wide World of Sports Boxing (aka TV Sports: Boxing)
Released under the Spotligfht label:
Total Eclipse
Dark Side
Dragon's Breath (thewy changed the name to something else; this is what it wa
called in the UK)
Speedball
Federation (aka Federation of Free Traders)
Deathbringer (aka Galdregon's Domain, or words to that effect)
I think that about does it. There may be one or two others.

Rollerbabes was close to completion, but never released. (Check out the
July issue of the multi-format edition of Compute for a near complete rundown
on unreleased Amiga games.)
Defender of the Crown II is still in the works, and should see the light of
day before too long.

I don't think Rollerbabes was ever released... (or was it).
