- Nuclear Assault - Guide
-
-
-
- Systemrequirements:
-
- The game should run on every AMIGA with the AGA-Chipset or a graphic-card.
- If you have a graphic-card, you should use a screen-promotor to get the game
- on a graphic-card-screen. Normaly the game opens a 256-color PAL-HiRes-
- Screen.
-
-
-
- Installation:
-
- For playing from harddisk you only have to copy the maindirectory
- "NuclearAssault" on your harddisk. But don´t rename the directory
- "NuclearAssault"!
-
-
-
- The idea:
-
- I started to program on the AMIGA one year ago (Many years ago I programed
- on the C-16 and the C-64). After my tool "Mech-Konstruktor", this is my
- first really action-game, I completed.
- I have taken a classical theme for it: The game is like the famous arcade-
- game "Missile Command".
-
-
-
- The story:
-
- It´s the year 2050. Bad hightech aliens want to conquer the earth
- (innovative, isn´t it). They have jumped into the sol-system with a huge
- armada of battle- and colonyships to expand their star empire. In a first
- bloody act they destroy the only human colony on Mars with a nuclear strike.
- After that, the aliens, which are resistent against radioactive beams, want
- to nuke out the industrial countries and other important countries enslave
- the rest of human kind.
-
- But the humans are not less of protection. In the last decades the nations
- have worked more and more in peace together, in the interest of exploration,
- specially in space exploration.
- In the year 2027 a big asteroid scratched only 2400 miles along earth.
- In believing of this danger the nations builded a defense system, which can
- destroy incoming objects. Now this defense-system has it´s first mission,
- not against asteroids, but against the launched alien nukes. You are the
- commander of this system and the only hope of human kind. Do it so, that
- it´s not the last mission.
-
-
-
- Aim of the game:
-
- You have to protect the different nations against alien nukes, which could
- destroy the cities. For that work you have two weapon turrets. From level
- to level the attack waves become harder and longer and with more dangerous
- weapons like target-changing-missles, multiple warheads and deep flying
- ufos. But you can arm up, too. After every level you get money for every
- city, which has still alived. With that money you can tune up your weapon
- bases.
-
- If you defend all countries the earth is save and you are the winner of
- the game.
-
- If you have done great work, you can enter your name into the highscore.
- The highscore will be saved, if you leave the program from the title
- screen.
-
- Note: You can delete the highscore by useing the program "Delete_Highscore"!
-
-
-
- Playing the game:
-
- In the titlescreen you can start the game by pressing the right mousebutton.
- With the left one you can quit the game.
-
- In game, your guntowers are aimed on the mousepointer.
-
- With the right mousebutton you can fire the right turret and with the left
- turret the left one.
-
- Between the levels you can tune up your weapon systems in the categories
- firepower (the explosions get bigger), in bullet speed (the shoots fly
- faster), in targeting system (you can fire more shoots together, from one
- turret), in deflector shild (the shield of the weapon bases gets stronger)
- and in ammo store (you have more shoots for every level).
-
- Every category can built up two times.
-
- You have only to click on the pictures and you buy the wanted, even if you
- have enough money.
-
- You leave the shop by clicking on "Quit".
-
-
-
- The enemys:
-
- Their are different forms of enemy missles.
-
- 1. The standard missles are always present. They are fired on a target and
- they never change it.
- Their explosion is different, from "firecracker" up to "heavy
- destroying". As longer the tail is, as bigger is the explosions.
-
- 2. In Level 3, you will get fun with the target-changing-missles for the
- first time. They have a scattered, orange tail and they are hard to
- hit, because they can switch on another city or base.
- They have medium blast power.
-
- 3. Later in game you have to hit the multiple warheads. They have green
- tails and can split themself everytime. The explosive power is low up
- to medium.
-
- 4. There are also missles, with combines the advantages of the target-
- changing missles and the multiple warheads. They have a bright blue
- tail.
-
- 5. Be careful of EMP-Weapons (Electro-Magnetic-Pulse-Weapons). They use a
- totally unknown technology and looks like a blue and violett ion-cloud.
- They are aimed on your turrets. They don´t damage, but it seems they
- opens a local space/time-gap with the effect of radiating a powerful
- number of loaded particles by sucking rounded marterial.
- The effect: For the time the EMP is active, your electronic is jammed
- and you cann´t fire.
-
- You are also attacked by flying saucers:
-
- To destroy an ufo, you have to hit the ion-pulsedrivers on the lower side,
- because other sides of these spaceships are protected too hard by shields!
-
- 1. The green scout ship is very fast and fires all types of standard
- missles.
-
- 2. The red destroyer is loaded with target-changing-missles. Hit him!
-
- 3. The fast commando ships attacks you with EMP.
-
- 4. There are hard armored colony ships, equipted with multiple warheads.
-
- 5. The battlestar is the biggest ship. It fires rounds and rounds of
- dangerous target-changing multiple warheads. It has a enormous armor,
- but a slow speed.
