Episode Originally Released: November 19th, 2011 ------------------------------------------ I found out not long after making this video that the side shields actually protect you from touching the sides of the road, which is why they don't appear on easy difficulty, since the sides of the roads don't hurt in that mode. Not a lot of mouse driven 2D shooters out there so while this one is very basic, at least it's very simple to play. Come to think of it... not a lot of 2D shooters where you DRIVE down roads either. Quite to mix of features going on here! :o ------------------------------------------ Additional Information and Corrections: * Thanks to Clint of LGR fame and his massive collection of stuff, I've found out that the boxed release by Monkey Business ONLY includes the first third of the game! Thus, unless you're a die-hard collector of old DOS stuff, it's better to just hunt down the shareware version if you want to try the game. * Technically, the game is still shareware, not commercial, but since the shareware version isn't sold anywhere anymore and the boxed version is, I figured it would be better to say it was still commercial. Alas, I never heard back about this game. :( * For those wondering, I'm playing on "Slow" speed at 6000 DOSBox cycles. There are many speed settings in game so you can adjust it to whatever setting you feel the most comfortable with. * Even though it may seem like I have unlimited energy at some points in the gameplay footage, you're allowed to have far more energy stored than is visible on the energy bar. * The side shields are actually only pertinent on the higher skill levels as they don't protect from attack damage and instead prevent you from taking damage from hitting the sides of the road! ------------------------------------------ Pixelmusement Website: http://www.pixelships.com ADG on Pixelmusement: http://www.pixelships.com/adg Alphabetical Index of ADG Episodes: http://www.pixelships.com/adg/index2.html
