A really obscure game, not sure if it was ever published [Bermuda Syndrome]

This one is a bit tricky to explain, but I once played a demo of a game similar to Flashback;
It was either on DOS or Amiga, but I cannot recall which I was so young.

What I remember about the game itself is that it was a 2D puzzle/action platformer and it was about a pilot I think in WW2 that was shot down near bermuda triangle, but somehow ends up passing through a distortion in space and wound up in what looks like a pre-historic world where primitive humans and dinosaurs live.
A woman is about to be sacrificed to a T-Rex but the plane crashes into it, saving her.

From there the pilot arms himself, frees the woman and together they try to survive this bizarre new world.

That's all I remember about it, but the title or if the demo was all ever published about it I do not know.

I wonder if by some sheer chance anyone here knows what it is, i'd really like to know.

Bermuda Syndrome?

Your description is almost an identical copy of the game description at Mobygames.
edit: It is only listed as made for Win3.x & Win95 though

Maybe there was a version & demo for your platforms that did not get published?

I found out there is this much later (2011-2017) fan remake of the Bermuda Syndrome game, and indeed now for the Amiga:

There even seems to be a Wii port of the game engine, but then you need the original data files too, which I suspect is required for the Amiga port too.

Wikipedia lists the engine as rewritten back in 2007 for 'openhandheld' platforms, so there might be more options to run it, provided the data files are available. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bermuda_Syndrome
