Missions Of Reliant

So, you think you have what it takes to be a starship captain? Missions of the Reliant v2.2, a zippy shareware game for the Mac, has finally arrived! Missions was first released in 1994 and received Honorable Mention for Best New Shareware Game of 1994 at the MacWorld Expo in Boston. Since then, I have worked long and hard to produce version 2, which contains new missions (3 in all), new features, new enemies, and overall improved game play. Missions is a game that combines the swift action of an arcade game with the challenge of commanding a ship and its crew into battle. Unlike many action games, Missions is more than a shoot-em-up; it requires careful strategy, interaction with your crew members, and the skill necessary to juggle the ship and its crew when confronted by a sudden, fierce attack by the enemy. Missions uses three-dimensional objects rendered in 256 colors for a more realistic look, and achieves smooth animation through the use of Ingemar Ragnemalm's Sprite Animation Toolkit, an excellent programmer's library for making sprite-based animation which is available on the Internet. Also, it employs a unique "jigsaw puzzle" approach to create hundreds of different crew members for each game. System requirements: * System 7.x * Macintosh with at least 3.5 MB of free RAM * A 13" or larger monitor with 256 colors * 3.3 MB of hard drive space Missions of the Reliant v2.2 is shareware. Unregistered users may play only one of the three available missions. Registration costs US$20 and can be done instantaneously while-you-wait using Release Software's embedded SalesAgent registration system. Once you register, all three missions will be available.
