Orion Prime : ordering has started !

[Gryzor]

Hey, when I came here just now this topic had *99* replies and *1999* views

So one negative critique can't be all that bad, plus adventures do have a specialised audience...

Someone I spoke with recently thought Orion Prime was a bit boring... can't mention names for obvious reasons.

I would understand why, it's not a shoot-em-up you can pick up and play easily, although it is staged very well for newcomers to the genre to get into fairly quickly.

On saying that though if I hadn't sat with pen and paper, made a map and notes of where everything is I probably would have got quite frustrated and lost. I am currently at a point where I've been to every room I can get to and seemingly picked up everything possible and now just trying anything and everything on random things.  I didn't play as much today as for a good half an hour I got no where, got pissed off and went to bed

I guess we're expecting a video soon

Yup!

I think I'll do a special 'live' vid showing the packaging (which is exceptional) and it running on a real CPC.

When I've completed it depending on how long the game is (Grim : OMG! haha!) I'll probably do a long play ... but as people are still playing through it I may leave that for a while so as not to spoil anything.

Has anyone completed it yet?

As an adventure game, you like or not...
But concerning realisation, it"s obviously up the mountain.


The debate is often like : just can't wait an ation game with the same level of details...
Well...
Action game engine is obviously heavier to get.
Perhaps an action game with short levels and a lot of re-loading, if you want it to run at a grap^hically heavy pace with "only" 128K RAM...


Or else, the lot of loading may kill it too.
Was thinking : a "Moonstone" like game may be suitable...

No scrollings, fun, multiplayer, Graphically heavy... and not that much complicated than a Barbarian or Golden Axe game in action phases...

I'm thinking about it.

But a 128k Intro is just so fine and great.
