PEGLEG is the hottest arcade game to hit the Macintosh in a long, long time. Playable full screen on any monitor capable of 256 colors or grays, and with PowerPC native code, combined with 680x0 code, as a "Fat binary," PEGLEG promises to capture every last ounce of adrenaline with blazing speed, smooth animation, and crisp rich sound. Watch for special online pricing.
PegLeg is an action game in the grandest tradition. With your hands at the controls of the Mach Z Battalion Blaster, a space craft designed to help you defend the earth from wave after wave of vicious alien pirates, you must battle alone. Your only goal is to survive against mounting odds.
PegLeg is designed to appeal to all players, from arcade neophytes to veteran gamers. The game offers three levels of difficulty: the slow mode allows you time to develop a familiarity with the controls; medium gives you a more challenging pace; and fast taxes your reflex to their utmost. A word of warning –– Double Speed is, well, fast, particularly on a Power Macintosh. PegLeg will, however, play full screen in 256 colors on any size monitor, giving you plenty of room to run, while still giving you a thoroughly adrenaline-pumping experience.
One of the most completely satisfying arcade games available, Pegleg is simple, elegant, and so addictive it's dangerous. Pegleg is destined to become one of the best selling arcade games ever for Macintosh.
