- Short: Demo of Zeewolf 2
- Author: Binary Asylum
- Uploader: bill.bennett@zoology.ox.ac.uk (Bill Bennett)
- Type: game/demo
-
- This is a one-level playable demo of Zeewolf 2, to be released December
- 1995 by Binary Asylum.
-
- Self-booting floppy in df0:, the demo (and the full game) is not
- HD-installable, but works on my A1000, so should work on just about any
- Amiga.
-
- After boot, use the up and down cursor keys to select joystick or mouse
- control - joystick is easier, but mouse gives more power and
- flexibility.
-
- Once you select 'start game', the mission scenario is presented.
- Again, press up and down cursor keys to see all the mission objectives.
- This demo is one of the harder, more complex levels.
-
- CONTROLS: Joystick left/right/forward/back turns and flies the
- helicopter in that direction relative to you. (So don't try to fly it
- like VIRUS!) You can fly diagonally, and a single flick of the joystick
- will turn the helicopter and hover it in that direction. Using the
- mouse is similar, but harder, however the right mouse button can also be
- used to rev up the engine and climb. Space toggles the 3 weapon
- systems, 'G' toggles the landing gear and Return toggles the map screen.
- 'P' pauses. The map shows enemies as red dots and friendlies as
- yellows.
-
- GAMEPLAY: As in Desert Strike, when you shoot a building, it will
- release a little blue man who you should attempt to rescue - Press 'G'
- to land near him and pick him up. The aircraft carrier - four yellow
- dots - will replenish your armour by landing on the rear deck (marked X)
- to discharge your rescued POWs, and land on the diamond at the front
- for re-fuel and re-arming your weapons. The blue aircraft will follow
- you into battle and assist. There is also a remote tank to control:
- Land beside the small blue tank with aerials and when it connects to the
- Zeewolf you will be tele-operating a big tank. 'L' terminates the
- link, although dying in the tank just restores you to the helicopter.
- The tank has a machine gun for aerial targets and an armour-piercing
- cannon for ground targets.
