WHAT NEXT?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The final version of Genetic Species is planned to be released sometime
this year (1997) on Amiga CD, due to the enormouse size of the title.
What do you mean you don't have a CD? Go get one! Jeeez!
You will also need a minimum of 8Mb Memory. Aaah! Nice to know Amiga titles
are finally demanding similar specs to other format competitors.
1. An accelerator is not necessary but it will certainly improve quality.
2. A Graphics Card is not necessary but once again would improve quality.
3. A Virtual Reality Headset with Motion Track is not necessary but will
certainly make you look stupid.
GENETIC SPECIES Amiga CD when Published will be available from all good
retailers everywhere around the entire Planet.
If you want your local Amiga shop to pre-order you a copy then tell
them to contact us now.
Or if you prefer you can purchase the title direct from Vulcan's
International Mail Order Company.
You can also keep up to date with Genetic Species progress from our web site
