Key facts:
- It was released on a demo disk, either with pc gamer or one of the many other dozens of mag demo disks between somewhere like 1995-1999 (huge gap i know lol).
- I think...it was within the same time frame of games such as V2000 and Uprising (both great games) so possibly closer to 1999
- May also of been a couple years before half life 1 was released too.
- Was either a feature game, or a game on the main "art" of the disk cover/paper cover
Game description:
Ok so this is all that i can remember:
- The main attraction of this game was that, you were a large, floating platform (3d, not sidescrolling or anything) that had many hexagonel, or pentagonel whichever, "tiles" or "blocks" that all linked together, sorta like a beehive honeycomb sorta shape, there were maybe 20 or 30 tiles that spanned most of the main screen
- The enviroment was a 3d enviroment, white...possibly artic or snow like conditions with mountains surrounding you, jaggy "walls" in other words to keep you within the...map or level or whatever
- On this platform, you could build things, such as a catapult and other weapons i can't remember on certain points, the UI would go vertically upwards on the side of the screen to select stuff to build
- You would sometimes encounter other floating platforms which i presume were enemies which you battled with eventually
- Cant remember if the attacking was real time or turned based, but there was ofc definately combat hence the stuff you build
- The platforms would move around quite slowly like big behemoths and i think...you could even RAM others if you didn't stop
- Unsure if the platform was directly controllable but im sure there was atleast left and right, it moved on single plain no up and down (i think) just "flat" like you know...it was set to hover a fixed hieght above land, if there was land
So that's about all i can remember...i thought the game was called "catastrophy!" or "cataclysm" or something with C in the name...i swore it started with the letter C but it may not off so that's extremely vague.
That's everything i remember...definately a pc game lol, windows 98 + 95 compatible at the time probably maybe ME or XP too.
If anyone has ANY idea's what so ever i'd be greatly appreciated, if i saw a picture of it, of heard the name, im sure it would appear on google or the internet somewhere.
Thanks in advance!
