Assuming you have fired all 4 missiles (yes, it can be done), there will be still some radioactivity but you'll have enough time to activate the destruction mechanism and go back to the decontamination shower.

Hey, that's a good hint, never thought about it that way ;-)

Hi, and thank you all for your help!

I have now completed the game with the first ending, and now it is time to go for the other endings!
But I still haven't seen Helena, who has been mentioned many times throughout this thread.

So I have to ask, where can I find her?
I've seen the hints given earlier, and I think that I understand them, but I'm still stuck.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe she is to be found...
Spoiler: ShowHide
...in the corridor outside the Captain's room, right? At least the fixed movie made me think so. If so, how do I get in contact with her? Or if I'm totally wrong, where should I look?

Thanks!

robcfg

Hey, congratulations!

Spoiler: ShowHide
You're on the right track. Remember to double check everything just to be sure of what you're seeing ;)

Nordeide

Congratulations? Well, thanks, although I might not deserve it after the ending that I just found...  :-[
Oh well. Good thing one can always reload and try again.
On to the last quest:
Spoiler: ShowHide
Helena is finally awake! It did pay off to rub one's eyes and look again, thanks!  :)
And then, finally... The code to the reactor! One part found in the hallway. Reading the text (aloud, even!) only gives me the 3 obvious digits. What is it that I do not see (or hear)?

robcfg

Spoiler: ShowHide
Well I don't know how is it written in english, but you should read articles such as "a" or "an" as "one", which happens to be a number too  ;)




All the 6 digits, as said in other posts in this thread are indeed in that quoted sentence.



And I think that finishing the game is quite an effort (though a nice one) and should be celebrated!  8)

Nordeide

Whew! Second ending achieved! Thanks a lot, robcfg! I was finally able to understand the text!
But I couldn't find Helena, even though it had been revealed in an earlier spoiler...
Spoiler: ShowHide
...that she would be on Level 0.
But still I couldn't find her. Where to look?

robcfg

Spoiler: ShowHide
In order to find Helena, you have to set the reactor to self destruct and wait for her to call you.


There's only one place where you could receive such communication.

I have a couple of questions for Targhan:


1) How do I trigger the 'Secret Mode' that we're told in the credit scroller?  :o


2) How is it the german translation going? Just curiosity, you know  8)


I'm still enjoying the game...

Targhan

1) How do I trigger the 'Secret Mode' that we're told in the credit scroller?
I may tell the secret some day :).


2) How is it the german translation going? Just curiosity, you know 

TFM and Octoate have apparently almost finished the work. It was going slow because of me (no spare time at all right now !!). Who knows, maybe in a month or two...

Nice! It will be the perfect excuse for playing it again! 8)

Does anyone (Targhan?) have any objections to me starting a long-play video for Orion Prime?

Let me know if so.


Targhan

No, I'd be honoured :). Just know that it takes *me* about one hour (or is it two ?? Can't remember) to finish the game by knowing everything about it :).

Oh, and... please don't show the ending (or just the first part)... Since the German version hasn't been release, maybe some people would still like to discover the game by themselves...

Surely they can just avoid seeing the video?  ;)
I'm still saving the game for the right moment, when I have the time it deserves. Then I think it'll be a better experience too.  :)
This is also why I haven't read much of this thread.
Do you need music for your Amstrad CPC game project?
Take a look at IndieGameMusic.com - that's where I put my tracks.

Gryzor

He could upload the ending in a separate version; but I can see Targhan's worry, so I'd stay off it...

I think I'm going to do it in parts over time, like an ongoing series. Probably by the time I get to the ending the German version will have long been released  :laugh:
Seriously though, when do you think this version will be released?

Nordeide

I also want to know the Secret Mode! Pretty please with sugar on top...?  :angel:
I've now seen all the three endings (Thanks, robcfg!), and I must say it is the most impressive game I've ever seen on the Amstrad! I've only played it on emulators yet, I'll try it on my CPC6128 one day.
But I think there is a plot hole:
Spoiler: ShowHide
When I fired the missiles, the noise from them were described as "loud enough to wake up the dead", or something like that. Yet, I had to wake up Helena, even after the noise from four such missiles!
What do you think?

Targhan

>Seriously though, when do you think this version will be released?
On a month, *at best*. Don't count on it, though, there's still beta test to do once the game is translated.

Well, no :). After all, there are two levels between them, so... :).

Maybe it allows players to enter level 3... then again maybe not  :laugh:

I don't think so ;-) In real life I work in a lab, and I promise you, under this circumstances, Level 3 is totally sealed.

According to the Orion Prime web site, those who bought the disc version of the game got some goodies with it. And among them, there was "a very special and cryptic negative". Does anybody there have this negative, and could you post a picture of it? Would be interesting to see it.
Too bad I didn't know about this game while they were still selling it!
