Short: Full Turboraketti2 gravity game release! Author: Heikki Kosola (hkosola@ele.tut.fi) Uploader: Lauri Ahonen (lauri ahonen pp inet fi) Architecture: m68k-amigaos The TurboRaketti II (v2.11) by Heikki Kosola 1992-1993 -------------------------------------------- !Finally Released as freeware in 1998! ============================================================= Created by : Heikki Kosola [hkosola@ele.tut.fi] Release code help : Zuikkis [Sorry, can't remember] Main release stuff: -zk [lauri.ahonen@pp.inet.fi] ============================================================= Heikki Kosola gave me a permission to release his TurboRaketti II as a full public version. He would also release the source, but it was lost due a very missfortunate HD crash when making backups! Anyway, I think that questions & stuff should be directed to me instead of the author, as he doesn't even have a proper amiga anymore. I can forward the useful stuff to him. TurboRaketti is a fast and furious 2-player gravity game, and it you haven't yet tried it, now's your change! I'm very sorry for the finnish localization. Feel free to try to localize it to english! A great deal of the "texts" are stored as bitmaps, which makes the task pretty hard. Atleast it is for me. If you can do it, please let me know! I'm also sorry for this absurd format, but as the game runs perfectly on a stock/vanilla 512k CHIP OCS A500, it's easier to have a disk image around. The problem is that Aminet won't accept DMS archives, so I had do make some stupid tricks. So the LHA has fully runable "HD" version on the game and a imagefile of the actual TurboRaketti II disk. I really suggest that you execute the install script, as it will create a self-booting gamedisk. I always play from a floppy disk, as we use the same TurboRanking file on many machines. So we have one "official" disk which is used almost always. UAE losers should be able to handle the disk image easier than plain LHA too. Very basic instructions: a) Run the install script and create the game disk. b) Kill your opponent & survive. c) Use 2 joysticks. d) Don't Write-Protect the disk. e) Press ESC to quit when lauched from the WorkBench. f) Try to handle with the finnish localization . g) Visit the official homepages at http://personal.inet.fi/bailu/zuulikuuli h) Harddisk installation simply by copying the files to your desired path.
