Description
Judgement day is possibly the most fully featured space invaders style game ever produced in an accessible form, ---- and certainly proof that any old formula can appear new and innovative with enough creative effort.
In the year 2015, the world is devastated by a war with a powerful group calling themselves the supreme evil. Under their leader, the manic supreme commander Ather (pronounced Athear), their forces have taken over most of the world in a succession of crushing defeats. Eventually, the allies gather together and decide their best hope for victory is to build one huge defensive base in North america, armed with the best weapons their scientists can come up with, which will hopefully be able to defeat the commander and his hoards.
This is of course, where you come in, manning the weaponry of the base.
With a machine gun that constantly fears, rockets which can take out tough targets in one shot, and a set of sky clearing nukes, the game certainly has plenty of weapons to play with. What's more, the machine gun constantly fires, so can perform strafing, while additional nukes and rockets may be manufactured by your base's staff, ---- assuming their not too busy repairing the hits you take to your defenses of course, ---- and keeping your defenses clear is rather a tricky proposition, given the number of rockets, randomly flying planes, highly armored helicopters and fiendish teleporting disablers which the supreme commander flings at you.
Should you get through his forces, you have several waves of super fast enemies, Ather's secret weapon the laser throwing Satellite, and the commander himself in his bomb chucking hovercraft to deal with.
Apart from these additions though, the truly fantastic thing about Judgement day is it's length of play. For completing certain challenges in the game, you receive trophies. These can be as simple as completing the game on a given difficulty (though given the rather solid challenge at higher difficulties this certainly isn't that! simple), or as complex as turning on your computer at a particular time or fulfilling certain in game requirements. Thus, --- there is always a new challenge to explore.
What's more, collecting enough trophies even unlocks minigames, random bits of fun audio, and extra weapons to use on the good commander and his forces.
Though originally released as a commercial game, Liam has now released the full game as abandonware, due to the difficulty of maintaining compatibility with modern Windows, so feel free to download and give it a try.
All in all Judgement day is one of the most ambitious projects in audio games, carrying the basic self-voicing left right stereo target and fire concept of the initial space invaders to hole new heights, ---- and definitely comes recommended.
