Mega Apocalypse
/ Martech
1987
Screenshots: « play/stop »
Congratulations!
You are now the proud owner of the most mega-advanced super shoot 'em up game
ever for your Commodore 64/128.
(Has it loaded yet? If the answer is Yes - skip the next paragraph).
It is a strange Universe really - isn't it? All those millions of planets and
moons and stars and comets swirling about in the vastness of space. Imagine
what fun it would be to explore - to boldly go where no boldly goer had boldly
gone before - unless they happened to live there. Latest research from the Institute
of Advanced Research (I.A.R.) indicated (...loaded yet???) that there are quite
a lot of planets with things living on them. Some of these things are pretty
intelligent like us really. (God this is awful!) Other of these things are really
stupid, like whelks, for example. Anyway, to cut a long story short, you have
been selected to explore the Universe, boldly seeking out strange and exciting
new worlds. If you find any, your instructions are quite clear. BLAST THE LIVING
DAYLIGHTS OUT OF THEM!!!!!!!!!
As you set off in your remarkably fast and powerful spacecraft - your mind is
tingling with excitement. Slowly you hurtle at excessive speeds into the void
- blasting a stray comet into a million shimmering pieces! But what's this (...there's
more!! C'mon tape turbo - get on with it).
Your world is suddenly filled with highly useful objects floating aimlessly
in front of you. Things like missiles, rotate motors, speed up thrusts (I ask
you... is this likely!) shields and - yep - extra lives. Frantically, you try
to capture them.
But what's this!!! (...Again?). Someone else is also trying to grab the goodies.
His shield is impervious to your laser bolts. Oh no!! And what's this? It's
an enormous and highly populated planet...
WHAM!!! BLAM!!! KERPOW!!! WOW!!! It's Mega-Apocalypse.
Have Fun!!!
