Absolutely top notch shooter which is one of the few games that really show what the STE was capable of and the number of sprites on the screen at times is incredible but never a hint of slowdown. Visually it is a feast for the eyes with a wide variety of imaginative enemies which move in balletic precision across the screen and more colours on the screen than the ST has any right to display at once. Music by Jochen Hippel is fantastic too as well as the sound effects including lots of digitised sound. Not too keen on the mocking laugh when you die though seems like too much salt in the wound for what is already a mega tough game. A real tour de force and deserved to be more heralded than it was but it came late in the life of the ST but stands the test of time as a true great in the ST library.

Au debut on choisi le nombre de joueurs :
touches "A" et "Z" pour chosir son perso et "W" pour valider
dans le jeu à chaque fois que l'ecran flash il faut appuyer sur une touche
quand il y a un jet de dés : taper une touche
"1" et "2" pour se deplacer à droite ou a gauche et "3" pour valider
(pour certain sort c'est "4" pour sortir)
Quand vous lancer un sort il vous demande son numero (parmis une liste qu'il donne)
il faut valider avec "entrée"
"E" et "D" pour scroller les armes et objets
"Z" pour avoir les statistiques
et dans les stats :
"A" et "Q" pour scroller les armures
"Z" et "S" pour scroller les compagnons
"E" et "D" pour scroller les armes et objets
"espace " pour sortir des stats

It looks and plays fantastic. Sad that is only a dev/demo version with no sound and music. Sure it would have been a great game if it had been released.

One of the most impressive things to happen in the ST game scene in the last years must be the conversions of classic Lucasarts' adventures by Anders Granlund. We are finally able to play Monkey Island 2 and Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis in glorious 16 colors. And he even managed to make the amazing Day of the Tentacle playable on a Mega STe. If you want to learn more about the tricks this guys pulled of to make this magic happen, look no further.Read the interview of Anders Granlund

Miles and Patrick Lord are two self taught game creators. Born in the 70's, they grew up with Sinclair machines and of course the Atari ST. They started to hack games on the mighty ZX Spectrum before dabbling into 16bit assembler. On the Atari, they created the amazing Droid. But it didn't end there. If you want to know more about the history of one of the best free games ever to grace an ST Format coverdisc, look no further. Read the interview of M. P. Lord

Ever since he first saw the BBC Micro, Jamie Hamshere was fascinated by technology and computer programming. In the past years he has done some tremendous things in the Atari ST scene. Creating an STe version of the classic puzzler Klax, or what about the 7 channel sound-engine Turbo Chip. He also helped with the sounds in the recent Lotus STe game by Jonathan Thomas. But today, it is all about his other big achievement, reinterpreting the classic Miles Lord game Droid. Read the interview of Jamie Hamshere

Did you know that there are some love messages in the TOS ROMs of the ST? In fact you can find the strings "Dave StaUgas loves Bea Hablig" and "JIM LOVES JENEANE" in all TOS ROMs with version number 1.xx and 2.0x!
