About the game:
Golden Axe is a side-scrolling hack and slash arcade video game released in 1989 by Sega for its System 16-B arcade hardware.[1] Makoto Uchida was the lead designer of the game, and was also responsible for the creation of the previous year's Altered Beast. The game casts players as one of three warriors who must free the fantastical land of Yuria from the tyrannical rule of Death Adder, who wields the titular Golden Axe.

Plot:
The game takes place in the fictional land of Yuria, a Conan the Barbarian-style high fantasy medieval world. An evil entity known as Death Adder has captured the King and his daughter, and holds them captive in their castle. He also finds the Golden Axe, the magical emblem of Yuria, and threatens to destroy both the axe and the royal family unless the people of Yuria accept him as their ruler. Three warriors set out on a quest to rescue Yuria and avenge their losses at the hands of Death Adder. The first is a battle axe-wielding dwarf, Gilius Thunderhead, from the mines of Wolud, whose twin brother was killed by the soldiers of Death Adder. Another is a male barbarian, Ax Battler, wielding a two-handed broadsword, looking for revenge for the murder of his mother. The last is a longsword-wielding Amazon, Tyris Flare, whose parents were both killed by Death Adder.

Abut thr run:
Speedrun of Golden Axe for the Amiga in decent sub 17m.
So here is my attempt to get a good run with the Barbarian and overall I am suprised that it was faster then with the Amazone. Maybe I have to collect not so much magic or the animation for the spells is shorter or I was just playing better. There is of course room for improvment but only one really big mistake did happen to my during this run so I am fine with it for now.

Run was performed with WinUAE using the WHDLoadVersion of this awesome game.

Anyway have fun watching it.
