'''Flink''', sometimes referred to as ''The Misadventures of Flink'', is a 2D scrolling platform game developed by Psygnosis, reliant on the then still fairly new
CD-ROM media to store large levels, highly detailed graphics and atmospheric music (with the obvious exception of the Mega Drive/Genesis version, which is a cut-down version of the game since it was released in a cartridge). The game is very colorful and cartoon-like, and is comparable with UbiSoft's ''
Rayman'', released 2 years later. One main difference is that ''Flink'' is, while still very colorful, much darker in places.
''Flink'' is also notable for being one of the few
Amiga CD32 titles not to see a release (cut-down or otherwise) for the
Amiga home computer system, on which the CD32's hardware was based. The majority of titles released for the CD32 were essentially the versions developed for Amiga home computers, taking only minor advantage of the CD-ROM medium with extra levels, CD audio, and/or FMV sequences.
The creators, Erwin Kloibhofer and Henk Nieborg, were also responsible for the game
The Adventures of Lomax and the classic
Lionheart. All these games display these creator's unique artistic style.
