This is a game developed for the Newton MessagePad that features arcade-like
animation.
Incoming! 1993 Gravity. All Rights Reserved.
Incoming! is released as freeware, but is not public domain.
This release is 0.99.0b.
Incoming! was created as a design and programming test on the Newton.
Basically what we wanted to do was see what kind of things could be done with
arcade-like animation. This game is more of a programming demo for us then
anything else, but we thought other people might find it entertaining.
Premise:
Based on Missile Command, your mission is to defend your cities from waves of
ICBM's. This is accomplished with the defense missiles you have. Because of
tracking stations already destroyed in the war, you can only track two of your
missiles at once. This means you'll have to choose your shots wisely. You
can't let the enemy missiles get too close, or you won't be able to detonate
one of your defense missiles. Enemy missiles are intercepted by being caught
in the nuclear cloud formed when you detonate one of your defense missiles.
Anything caught in these clouds is evaporated. The enemy has ICBM's and Smart
Bombs in their arsenal. Smart Bombs know how to avoid the nuclear clouds, so
unless your shot is timed correctly, you won't destroy them. Your mission is
to defend your cities as long as you can.
