DARKWAR ONEBOMB ATARI 1.1.2023






Running the game:
This is a game for ATARI ST mono emulators. It is written in GFA BASIC 3.6. It is not tested on a real machine and it is possible, that it can't be run on it. You can try to run DWOATARI.PRG or DWOATARI.GFA in a GFA BASIC interpreter. DWOATARI.PRG runs with the emulator hatari 1.8.0 and its built-in EmuTOS-image (https://hatari.tuxfamily.org/download.html). DWOATARI.PRG also runs with Steem v3.2 and the TOS-ROM tos1.02de (http://steem.atari.st). There are also no compatibility problems with the STEmulator from the late 1990s. GFA BASIC was chosen as programming language to write a program compatible to EmuTOS. The scrolling is a bit slow. You can choose a 32-MHZ-CPU in hatari 1.8.0 or Steem v3.2 to make it faster. Darkwar OneBomb is fast enough in STEmulator.

Playing the game:
You must destroy as many of the spaceships coming from the upper side of the gamefield as possible in this 2D shooting-game. Your gun is positioned in the middle of the scene and points to the position of the mouse. If you click with the mouse, a shot starts to move to one of the sides of the gamefield. You can't do anything until the ball hits a spaceship or one of the sides of the gamefield. Only one bomb after another can attack the spaceships. The game is over after ten minutes, and then you can see, how many points you have got. Some spaceships are elimated after more hits than the others and you get more points for that.
