CYBORG - Alpine Software
======
Cyborg is a combination of an arcade game with an
illustrated text adventure. The stages of the game are
interlinked so that making good progress in the arcade
sections will allow you to select an easier level of
difficulty in the adventure. It is also possible to play
either the arcade game or the adventure on its own but you
can't fully complete your mission if you do this. There is
also a competition associated with the game - the original
artwork commissioned for the box cover will be awarded to
the first two customers to complete the game in full. One
of the pieces of airbrushed artwork shows the Cyborg
himself and the other shows the dragon, one of his enemies
in the Forest section of the game.
There are over 2 megabytes of Mode 13 graphics in the
arcade stages and over 2 megabytes of Mode 15 graphics in
the adventure stages - a total of more than 4 megabytes of
256 colour graphics. There is also over 100k of music and
sound effects and the game runs at 50 frames/second on
ARM3 machines and 25 frames/second on ARM2 machines, with
automatic compensation so that the game plays at the same
speed on both. The only difference is that graphics will
