A T R O P H Y

For those of you in the know, Atrophy, which is set to be not only
the greatest shoot'em up ever on the Amiga, but the greatest shoot'em
up on any platform is nearing completion.

The game already features the following...

+ 10 Ham-8 (16.5 million cols.) pictures, a total of over 100+MB
  worth of GFX.
+ Over 6Mb of some of the best sounding music ever
+ 6 Giant levels with 12 end/mid level guardians
+ over 5000 frames of animation
+ 60+ objects on screen at any one time
+ over 300 colours on screen at any one time
+ keyboard, joystick, redefinable keys, mouse
+ Hard drive installable, executable from Workbench
+ Minimum disk swapping.  On 4 disks or CD
+ Simultaneous 2 player action, shared lives option
+ Flexible configuration, and many many game options
+ Quarter and half pixel smooth dual playfield scrolling
+ Intelligent random attack patterns for aliens!
+ Super smooth animations
+ No slow down even with two players and total fire power
+ Many weapons pick ups


Now many people have questioned how so much data (over 100Mb of
Graphics and 6Mb of music) can possibly fit onto 4 or perhaps 5
disks....the answer is that the developers....Intersect
Development have written not one, but two new compression
routines that compress graphics by incredible amounts and allow
uncompaction in just 1 second compared with 12 seconds of a
normal JPEG!   The same has been done for music, as most people
know music is very hard to compress, and so special routines
have been written that compress the music by more than most if
not all available routines!    Atrophy is technically incredible!

Hopefully, you will have seen screenshots of the game and previews
in all the major Amiga magazines including Amiga Format, Power,
Computing and CU Amiga, etc.    and so already have an idea of what
the game looks like and what is already working.


The game is now just 3-4 weeks away from completion, but there is
still time to add new features and that's where we would like your
help and expertise as a gameplayer...

If you have any ideas for features that you would like to see in
Atrophy...then please tell us.   Anything you would really like to
see.   Atrophy is already set to be the best shoot'em up on any
platform and will be a something to show off the Amiga and its
abilities, but we want to go even further, so if you have any ideas
on what you want in a shoot'em up, then please let us know.   This
is your chance to have an input.
