A Game by Matthew Bush
First Release: Friday, April 14, 1995
DESCRIPTION
Diamond is a fast paced VGA only game that combines both extreme
arcade style reflexes and puzzle solving strategy. Your
objective is to retrieve a set number of diamonds from fifteen
different levels. In your quest you must dodge the mines
digging equipment and falling boulders and diamonds as you
tunnel through the earth looking for the diamonds you need
to defeat the spirit of Xathe. Diamond includes a free built-in
level editor and Soundblaster compatable sound plus speed
adjustability to compensate for different skill levels.
STORY
The long searched for diamond mines of the Andes mountains have
been found. It did not take long for the entrepreneurs to realize
that the only way to make a profit would be to automate the mines.
Soon, there were machines that dug tunnels, crushed boulders to
release the diamonds inside, and conveyor belts and lifts to move
everything around. But not long after the mines had been automated
and were set to run independent, something went drasticaly wrong,
as it always does. The spirit of Xathe was awoken. The demon set
forth his minons to wreak havok on all of the machines that had
intruded in upon Xathe's lair. The diggers, or blades as they were
called in mine jargon, were sent to aim mindlessly through the
corridores of the mine. The conveyor belts were set to run at
top speed as the bolts flew from their joints. The corporations
lost hope after the first attempts to regain control were a complete
loss. It did not take long for the news of this event to reach
the entire globe. Young and old souls alike seeking fame, glory,
and adventure foolishly set out to make their fourtune with the
thousands and thousands of diamonds to be found in the mines.
You, being the foolish one that you are, decide that you too can
outfox the spirit of Xathe. So here you are.
