'┬LITZ 2000'
╘HESE DAYS IT SEEMS POPULAR TO TAKE A OLD GAME & UPDATE IT TO A 90'S STYLE GAME. ┬LITZ HAS BECOME A VICTIM OF THIS & ╩ON HAS TAKEN THE CLASSIC GAME & GIVEN IT NEW LIFE. ╘HIS REALLY IMPROVES ON THE OLD STYLE & THE NEW FEATURES IN THE GAME MAKE THIS A SUCCESS.
╘HE BACKGROUND NOW SCROLLS & YOU HAVE A FUEL BAR & YOU LIGHTLY DROP DOWN & CAN MOVE LEFT & RIGHT. ╘HIS BRINGS IT CLOSER TO THE CLASSIC '┬OMBER' GAME. ╘HERE ARE NOW MISSILES WHICH FIRE UPWARDS AT YOU AND METEORITES TO KILL & CRYSTALS TO COLLECT AS POINTS.
╘HE PLAYABILITY IS THERE AND ONCE YOU START PLAYING, IT GRABS YOU BY THE THROAT. ╔T'S ALSO TOUGH WHEN THE GRAVITY GETS GREATER!. ┴FTER YOU HAVE BLOWN UP THE FINAL BUILDING, YOU HOVER DOWN & LAND. ┴ COOL FUELER PULLS UP & A LITTLE MAN REFUELS YOU & ZOOMS OFF. ╘HEN YOUR SHIP TAKES OFF & TAKES OFF TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
┼ACH LEVEL IS BRILLIANTLY DESIGNED WITH A MIX OF MULTI & HI-RES BLOCKS. ┬UILDINGS ARE ALMOST DIFFERENT FOR EACH LEVEL & SOME BUILDINGS LOOK SMART!. ╘HE MAIN SHIP IS REALLY GLOSSY & WELL DRAWN. ╘HE EXPLOSIONS ARE SMALL BUT PERFECT. ╘HE ONLY DOWNER IS THE LIMITED DETAIL IN THE BACKGROUND.
╘HE ╨RESENTATION IS GOOD, WITH A NOTE WITH THE STORY & INSTRUCTIONS. ╘HE TITLE SCREEN IS FINE WITH ALL THE BASIC FEATURES YOU'D EXPECT. ╘HE SFX IS BRILLIANT WITH ╞EEKZOID MUSIC ON THE INTRO & THE FUNKY TITLE MUSIC BY HIM.
╘HE SFX ARE GOOD WITH NEAT EXPLOSION EFFECTS & SPOT FX. ╩ON HAS DONE A GOOD JOB ON THIS GAME & IT IS CERTAINLY THE BEST ┬LITZ CLONE I'VE PLAYED!

'╙CEPTRE ╒NCUT'
╘HIS IS THE VERSION THAT '┴TLANTIS' WERE TO RELEASE WITH THE PLUMP VERSION OF ├ALIPH UNLIKE THE THIN ONE IN THE '╨YSTRONIK' VERSION (╞ROM ├╞55).
╘HE PUZZLES ARE THE ORIGINAL FROM THE ╙PECCY GAME. ╘HE INTRO & OUTRO HAVE BEEN EXCLUDED FROM THE PACK & INSTEAD, YOU HAVE AN INSTRUCTION FILE & NOT THE REAL ENDING.
╘HE GAME ITSELF REMAINS UNCHANGED & HAS A PERMANENT OPTION SCREEN.
┴FTER SELECTING, YOU ARE PRESENTED BY THE TITLE SCREEN WITH OPTIONS GALORE.
╘HE GAME IS GREAT, THE GFX ARE VERY DETAILED IN THE PALACE WITH BURNING TORCHES ETC. ╘HE GRAPHICS ARE MULTICOLOUR WITH AN OPTION FOR HIRES SPRITES, THE MAIN SPRITE IS DRAWN VERY WELL, BUT ANIMATES UNREALISTICALY. ╘HE ENEMIES ARE WELL DRAWN, & THE HI-RES VERSIONS LOOK NEAT. ╘HE BACKGROUNDS ARE BRILLIANT & GIVE A GAME WITH GFX WHICH ─IZZY GAMES LACKED. ╘HE AMOUNT OF PUZZLES TO SOLVE WILL KEEP ANY ADVENTURER GOING FOR DAYS.
╘HE ═USIC, AGAIN, WAS COMPOSED BY THE GREAT ╞EEKZOID & IT REALLY SUITS THE GAME & THE TUNES ARE HUGE & MELLOW.
╘HIS GAME IS A DEFINATE FOR MAPPERS & ─IZZY FANS. ╘HE GAME HAS NICE TOUCHES LIKE THE FLYING CARPET ETC. ╘HE SFX IS VERY WEAK WITH TINY SOUNDS FOR THE JUMPING & DYING. ╘HE AMOUNT OF OBJECTS YOU CAN HOLD AT ONCE IS TOO SMALL, MAYBE THREE WOULD BE BETTER AS IT IS VERY AWKWARD TO KEEP RUNNING BACK & FORTH ALL THE TIME. ╔T'S VERY UNFORTUNATE THAT THIS NEVER MADE IT TO THE SHELVES AS THIS WOULD HAVE SOLD A LOT DUE TO ITS DIFFICULTY CURVE BEING JUST RIGHT & PLAYING WELL!.

╨REVIEW OF '┴STROMINE' REVIEW
╘O BE RELEASED SOON.
╘HIS IS GOING TO BE A ┬╔╟ GAME & MY MOST AWAITED GAME OF 97!.
╘HIS IS ONLY A LEVEL PREVIEW & I'M SHOCKED OF HOW PLAYABLE IT IS & IT FEELS LIKE A TRUE CLASSIC GAME. ╔ MEAN THAT IN THE SENSE THAT IT HAS THE PURE PLAYABILITY THAT YOU ONLY GET IN A PROPER GAME. ╘HIS IS A BRILLIANT ═ANIC ═INER CLONE WITH SO MUCH MORE!.
╘HE ═AIN CHARACTER IS SO PERFECT!,
HE CAN JUMP, FALL, CROUCH, SHOOT (╫HEN THE GUN IS COLLECTED) THROUGH SOME WALLS, SLIDE DOWN POLES, CRAWL, DO ACROBATICS IN A SPACE SUIT!. ╘HE CHARACTER IS A BRILLIANTLY DETAILED HI-RES SPACE MAN WHO ANIMATES PERFECTLY!. ┘OU MUST NAVAGATE '╬ED' THROUGH THE MINE & COLLECT ALL THE MINERALS AVOIDING ALIENS, SPIKES & LAVA POOLS . ╘HERE IS ALSO A NIFTY POLE TO SLIDE DOWN WHERE YOU FIND YOUR GUN. ┘OU HAVE AN AIR SUPPLY WHICH MUST BE FILLED UP OCCASIONALLY BY A AIR PUMP ON TOP OF THE SCREEN. ┴FTER COLLECTING THE GUN, YOU CAN FIRE THROUGH SOFT PARTS OF THE ROCKS TO ALLOW YOU TO GET THE OTHER MINERALS. ┘OU CANNOT SHOOT THE ENEMIES THOUGH. ╘HERE IS A SLIGHT PROBLEM WHICH IS THE PIXEL PERFECT JUMPS. ╔F YOU GET YOUR JUMPS WRONG, YOU CAN DRAIN YOUR ENERGY BY FALLING TO FAR. ╘HIS GAME HAS A LOT IN IT AND THIS IS JUST ONE LEVEL. ╘HE GRAPHICS ARE BRILLIANT AND WITH THE MUSIC IT IS PERFECT!. ╩ON ╫ELLS HAS RECENTLY BEEN STUNNING MANY OF US WITH HIS TUNES WITH PERFECT ╚UBBARD/╟ALWAY INCARNATIONS. ╔T MAKES IT FEEL LIKE A MAJOR GAME FROM 1986(╟OOD OL DAYS!). ╔T HAS PLAYABILITY WHICH IS RARE NOW AND IT HAS A LOT PLANNED FOR THE FINISHED RELEASE!.
╔N THE FINISHED GAME THERE WILL BE 7 TUNES WITH A 7 MINUTE TITLE TUNE. 7 MINES, SUBGAMES IN THE STYLE OF MANY OF THE ╒LTIMATE GAMES & A MINI FLICK SCREEN ADVENTURE + MORE!. '╬ED' MAY BE GIVEN MORE MOVES LIKE.. ╙WIMMING (╠ATER LEVELS), CLIMBING & MORE!. ╘HIS IS GOING TO BE THE BEST GAME ╩ON HAS EVER MADE!, ALL EFFORT & TIME IS GOING INTO THIS GAME, SO ╔ HOPE YOU ALL GIVE ╩ON THE SUPPORT HE DESERVES FOR HIS (╨OSSIBLE FINAL) GAME!
