It was an old game to my amiga 500, you played as a person who looked like an old hunter. You know, like those who's out hunting tigers and such in africa in the colonialperiod. Which was either pink or blue (depending on if it was singleplayer or multiplayer) and you shot arrows with some kind of rope. you shot these ropes up straight the screen and popped baloons. The baloons then split into smaller baloons and then dissapeared when you popped the smallest version. if you look at this link:

and try the game you know exactly what I'm talking about, since this game on the url is a flash-remake of it. please, I'd like an answer as fast as possible.

The game you're talking about could be Pang. It is available for Amiga, Dos, Commedore64, Amstrad CP, Gameboy and MAME. There is also Super Pang / Super Buster Brothers for Super Nintendo. Super Pang is like an improved sequel to Pang with different backdrops and maybe other items. Yes, there were 2 players pink and blue. The association seems like blue for boy and pink for girl.

If you don't mind not having the amiga version, there is also another PC dos game called Dinosaur Balls with a similar concept but with bakground of dinosaurs.

If you insists on the amiga version, go to an abandonware site with amiga emulation.

If you want to try others there is:
Super Bubble Mania

Pea Shootin' Pete

If you want to buy a Playstation game, they have Buster Bros. Collection (comprises of Buster Bros., Super Buster Bros., and Buster Buddies).

For a single player shareware dos game of this nature, see Spit Wad Willy
