Hellgate

A DOOM clone for the ST. This one closely follows the theme of the original, bearing in mind that it fits on a floppy disk and only needs 1Mb of RAM! Rather than fighting against a variety of monsters, your aim is to blast your way through a robot-infested colony based in Outer Space. The only rule in Hellgate is that you must blast everything that moves, kill or be killed. On your travels you can collect keys to gain access to locked areas of the complex, weapons, ammunition, armour and medi-packs can all be collected in order to assist you in your quest and help you live a little longer. Games can be saved at any time, so it's sensible to save at strategic points so you can resume from there as soon as you get killed. Reach the end of one level and its on to the next. Multiple users are supported (though you play one at a time), so each player can resume his own saved games. This Shareware version features three skill levels and three complete game levels. A number of other features are also disabled, though this release remains fully playable. A hard drive and 2Mb of RAM are recommended but Hellgate will run from floppy on a 1Mb system. If you have an STE, you get the stereo sound as well.
