Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.announce From: Alberto Ricart <alberto@parsec.mixcom.com> Subject: SUBMISSION: Rocks 1.5 Available at cs.orst.edu Reply-To: alberto@parsec.mixcom.com Organization: Next Announcements Approved: sanguish@digifix.com Rocks!(tm)(c) (v1.5) Rocks is the mother of all space and asteroid type of games. Graphics are excellent specially in COLOR, if you have a color machine you don't want to miss this! Rocks is being distributed as shareware $35 per license. What's New: v.1.5 - The NeXTWorld Expo Special (5/20/93) Copy protection scheme has been changed. The game is no longer tied to a particular machine. We will ship a 'FAT' copy of Rocks! as soon as we come back from the expo. Hey you may be able to get a fat one if you ask us nicely... The Demo mode has been made more enjoyable. You now get to play levels 1 and 2. (Yeah level 5 is HARD!). We now save the game window size to the one last used. By popular request we extended the range of the photon torpedoes even further. The reloader is faster, so you will be able to get more of them out. You'll need them too. The ship is more 'agile' - so are some of the critters. We added Mines. The Saucer just became nastier, but his shooting range was reduced a bit. We added a Sentry. This one is REALLY mean. He is also very hard to catch. The 'cheat' mode requires much more effort. Black Holes and other space disturbances are not as predictable... Oh yes, Warp engines are fully operational... Watch where you land.
