Short: Screenshots of upcoming game GNOMES Uploader: c.oldiges@tu-bs.de (Christian Oldiges) Author: c.oldiges@tu-bs.de (Christian Oldiges) Type: game/demo This archive contains some screenshots and informations about our soon to be released strategic platform game. It is NOT one of these super-duper-3D-games for players who dont like to use their brains, but GNOMES has cute gfx, sfx and great levels with lots of puzzles. Take a look at it. Its worth at least a minute !!! Note: A PLAYABLE DEMO will be released via AmiNet soon ! A short description: -------------------- On the first look, "GNOMES" looks like an ordinary Jump`n`Run game, because it uses a normal Jump`n`Run-perspective with platforms and so on. But the goal IS NOT to collect as many diamonds or keys or to shoot everything moving around. The gameplay is very different. Its a mixture of elements from two of the most successful computergames ever: "L*mmings" and "S*per Mario" combined in one game. The player has to help the gnomes to find their way to the portals one can find in each level. Up to five Gnomes are spread all over each level and a lot of dangerous things are waiting for them. Help them to survive ! We have included demo-pictures for a first impression on graphics and gameplay. We hope to finish a playable demo-version in a few weeks. GNOMES will be released at the end of 1996 via OTM Publication and Promotions Ltd. 11 Aldergate, Tamworth, Staffordshire,B79 7DL Tel.: 01827 312 302 Fax : 01827 670 10 Email: OTM@OTMltd.demon.co.uk Some technical notes: --------------------- -Three amiga versions in ONE box: - OCS/lowmem for amigas with at least 1 megabyte mem (this one has crippled sound fx and less graphics) - OCS/full for amigas with at least 1.0 chipmem + a least 0.5 fastmem - AGA for all aga-amigas (this one has 256 color graphics and other extra stuff) -50 levels, each consisting 5 PAL-screens width and 1.5 screens heigth -5 completely different and big graphics sets -about 10 songs while playing + title song -extensive use of sound effects -everything running at 50Hz -> very smooth scrolling and animation -system friendly code -HD installable ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LEGAL STUFF: ------------ ALL FILES INCLUDED IN THIS ARCHIVE ARE COPYRIGHT 1995,96 BY CHRISTIAN OLDIGES, HEINER GROTE AND GERALD GROTE AND MAY NOT BE MODIFIED OR USED FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN THIS ARCHIVE ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTACT ADDRESS: ---------------- Funrise Entertainment (Christian Oldiges) Madamenweg 10 D-38118 Braunschweig Germany Phone: Germany-531-280 98 45 email: C.Oldiges@tu-bs.de IMPORTANT NOTE: BUYING the game is the ONLY way to keep us developing software for amiga !
