[someone help me with the title screen]
(chosen by Arkhan)

From the prolific homebrew group Aetherbutt, members of which can be found hanging around these very boards, comes...a shooter! On a freaking Hucard! Awesome!

Actually, I don't have this one, but it sounds like a lot of you do. Arkhan, anything you want to post about this game...retrospective or whatever...would be very appropriate. It sure looks like this is a landmark game for you and Aetherbutt alike.

Those of you who have played it, let us know what you think!

i feel the same way! hoping new orders will be avaliable in the future! would love to try this game out

I love saving those lil Atlanteans!

It looks sweet, controls great, sounds awesome, and is perfect in difficulty (not a cake walk but not frustratingly tough either).  Buy it and play it now, bitches!

Well, I decided to pop this bad boy in in honor of it this week.  I haven;t played it in awhile and now it won't boot up.  I tried cleaning the contacts but still no luck.  I'll have to contact Arkhan about snagging another one when they do another run.

Desh: If that's one of the original dark blue ones, try pushing it to one side of the card slot (try both - left usually works). Some of them are touchy about how the contacts line up...

Yeah, the dark blue ones sometimes tard out apparently.



Orders are still "open", but you'll be waiting for your copy while we make more.
