Rapidman 2 |
Psicotiq |
1998 |
Action |
A space ship battle game with gravity. While featuring excellent graphic, excellent explosion effects and Sound Blaster sound effects this game failed to be more complete. It lacks any sort of menu, options and similar. Rapidman 2 has no progress and you can't win it(as far as I know). You can only earn kills by destroying enemy ships and exit from it when had enough. The game also features different weapons and powerups and a water pool in the bottom of the arena map. It all looks very cool and very well designed but that's simply not enough. |

Red Baron 2573 |
Adam Stanchos |
1998 |
Action |
A poor space shooter. This is one of those QBasic game that simply got outdated. It might have been something special when it was released(in QBasic world) but today no. The biggest problem of Red Baron is it's keyboard handler(INKEY$) which makes controlling the ship very difficult and frustrating. Also, the game is jerky, tends to stop during explosions and makes the battle with enemy ships very annoying. On the other hand, it does feature nice menu, instructions and illustrated story and ending. |

Regatta II |
Daniel Hampf |
1999 |
Action |
While not being a well coded game Regatta II is a strangely fun and addictive sailing simulation. The graphic is very simple and slightly flickers on some places but the gameplay is great. Very uncommon theme in computer games. The package also includes a level editor(in source code). The game is on German but you can manage without it(I've also wrote a nice help file in English). |

Renegade Force |
Ivan Matyunin |
1998 |
Action |
An average space shooter featuring ok graphic and MIDI background music. The gameplay is so-so but what helps a lot is the large number of available difficulty levels. The game allows for two players to play simultaneously which is not often see in QBasic space shooters(if at all). What ruins the gameplay a lot are strange periods of time in levels when no enemies appear(can last up to 30 seconds). |

Quantum |
2003 |
Action |
Robot battle game. While the graphic and the overall design is very nice the gameplay is very poor. Robots can only move in vertical or horizontal direction. The battle is based on ramming into the enemy and kicking him with your weapon. With computer opponent all you need to do is to lure him in the pit which is very easy. The game also features Sound Blaster sound effects and music. This is one of those games that just looks good while it really isn't good. This version of Robot Rumble seems like a finished game so I don’t know why the designer calls it a demo. Still, I’ll respect his decision. |

A simple mini game where you need to destroy the opponent castle by shooting projectiles at it(you set the angle and speed of the projectile). Also, the castle constantly sends a tank at you so you need to destroy the tank too before it reaches your castle. Have in mind that this is a mini game. Ok graphic. |

Excellent one on one, space ship shooting game like Star Control Melee. Very nice graphic and presentation. This only a duel game and computer opponent is supported. The game runs a bit too fast on modern PCs. Generally, this is a too fast paced game for my taste. The game also features Sound Blaster sound effects. |

Management/action game in space. Explore the galaxy, gather minerals, visit planets and upgrade your ship with new weapons, armor and similar. Strategy part is very good while the action part of the game is rather poor(mineral gathering) but playable. The graphic is nicely done in some parts(in the action part is not so good). Similar to Elite(in concept). |

Absolutely amazing 3D wireframe fighting game similar to Mortal Kombat. The animation and particle effects are great. Huge number of features from build your fighter to special moves. Large number of stages. Very good gameplay. The downsides are inability to play against human opponent and minimal Sound Blaster sound effects. Highly recommended!

You control a fighter craft which can carry different weapons. 9 large missions, each with different enemies, boss and graphic. Cool illustrated story. Excellent Sound Blaster music and sound effects but they will probably not work in Windows 2000/NT and Windows XP. Sorry. One of the best QBasic games ever made. Highly recommended! Only flaw is the poor save game option which puts you in the beginning of each mission and missions can last up to 30 minutes. The extra download is the no sound version and it’s only 2 MB large. |

Terribly amusing Teris clone bringing a new features in the gameplay - killing. While having to fill horizontal lines with blocks you can also kill the walking stooges that fall in the game field by slamming the pieces on them. Their movement is very nicely coded and amusing(like when they stuck in a hole made of your pieces). The blood effects are also cool with blood being spilled of the game field and accumulating on the bottom of the screen. If the blood reaches the game field you get a blood bonus. The game sadly doesn't feature any sound effects or music and it doesn't seem to speed up with time. Pity. Makes the game very easy. |
