Aaloe) of The Farm Type: game/2play Action: PAL; NoAGA The best ever SpaceThruster game has arrived! 98% rating in Amiga User International Not to be missed - The ONE If you've played Gravity Force, Turboraketti or any other thrust/gravity game then you know what The ROKETZ is. For those, who have never heard of such games: The ROKETZ is the best frustration buster ever made. Race the track in your customized Roket (multiple different engines, weapons and special powers) or fight your buddy in a fierce space battle. Also a CPU player option is included for all the loners out there. The ROKETZ PD (PD stands for Public Domain or Playable Demo, whatever) features: - Fully ray-traced ingame GFX (256 shapes per fighter for example) - Extremely atmospheric music and ingame sounds - Realistic playing environment - 2 player configurable ships (4 in full version) - Dozens of deadly weapons and useful special powers (much more in full version) - Statistics, that cover everything - 2 taxing levels (6 in full version) - One (against cyber CPU player) or simultaneous two player split screen action - Takes advantage of fast memory - Fully HD installable - User configurable keys / joystick If you have older PD version than 2.0 then here's list of what's the difference between 1.x and 2.25: * Should not crash (i.e. AGAIN many lame bugs fixed) * Improved gameplay * CPU player's AI upgraded * Eats a bit less memory - so it should work with large HD no fastmem combo (best is still to boot without startup-sequence to gain free mem) * Sounds should be ok on every machine now (even on 40 MHz MC040) * Keyboard controls should work fine now * You can quit back to Workbech pressing Ctrl+Escape in main menu * Loads a bit faster * HD installer included * User selectable control method (keyboard, joy) * Works on CD32 (keyboard/memory problems fixed) ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 632 277 56.1% 30-Dec-94 16:26:08 RoketzPD_V2.25.info 3220 2224 30.9% 16-Sep-94 20:29:08 RoketzPD_V2.25/c/Assign 232 117 49.5% 27-Nov-93 14:19:24 RoketzPD_V2.25/devs/system-configuration 388 225 42.0% 06-Jan-80 04:20:36 RoketzPD_V2.25/disk.info 5248 1240 76.3% 01-Feb-95 15:38:50 RoketzPD_V2.25/HD_Install 1275 529 58.5% 07-Feb-95 13:34:36 RoketzPD_V2.25/HD_Install.info 0 0 0.0% 07-Feb-95 13:32:32 RoketzPD_V2.25/libs/ 0 0 0.0% 07-Feb-95 13:32:32 RoketzPD_V2.25/pilots/ 632 275 56.4% 23-Dec-94 15:07:54 RoketzPD_V2.25/Pilots.info 5798 2830 51.1% 04-Feb-95 19:19:10 RoketzPD_V2.25/ReadMe 519 265 48.9% 04-Feb-95 19:14:50 RoketzPD_V2.25/ReadMe.info 11904 11904 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:32 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_01.DAT 68532 68532 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:32 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_02.DAT 1668 1668 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:34 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_03.DAT 85156 85156 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:34 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_04.DAT 114068 114068 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:34 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_05.DAT 23616 23616 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:34 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_06.DAT 23400 23400 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:34 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_07.DAT 24688 24688 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:34 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_10.DAT 24220 24220 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:34 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_11.DAT 79060 79060 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:36 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_14.DAT 1740 1740 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:36 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_15.DAT 107604 107604 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:36 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_16.DAT 2548 2548 0.0% 10-Jan-80 21:51:36 RoketzPD_V2.25/Roketz_17.DAT 109996 106661 3.0% 02-Feb-94 15:36:42 RoketzPD_V2.25/RoketzPD 8762 1765 79.8% 01-Feb-95 15:37:16 RoketzPD_V2.25/RoketzPD.info 26 26 0.0% 01-Feb-95 15:37:38 RoketzPD_V2.25/s/startup-sequence -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 704932 684638 2.8% 07-Feb-95 22:33:08 27 files
