Hyperdrome
Hyperdrome was
one of the ill-fated Lynx games that was essentially completed but
abandoned once Atari moved from the Lynx to the Jaguar. It's clearly
a Ballblazer clone, with the added bonus of supporting up to four
players via comlynx. Your goal is to move about a 3D arena, collect
valuable items, and return them to your goal for points. Other players
compete against you and arena obstacles will knock you around as
you vie for the title of Hyperdrome Champion!
Telegames
formally released this game at Classic Gaming Expo on August 14,
1999. Look for details on their web pages coming soon, or order
your copy direct from Songbird
Productions today!
This page will eventually
feature more hints on the various items you can pick up as well
as strategies for the game. For now, here are some details on the
game:
- Shots appear to stun,
not destroy, your opponents, although other playfield objects
can be destroyed (thus robbing your competitors of the opportunity
to score points).
- The diamonds, green
jewels, red jewels, and blue jewels seem to be worth the most
points.
- You can get points
for any object you shoot into your goal.
- Certain objects do
have detrimental effects, such as the red-centered "lantern" which
paralyzes you for a few precious seconds if touched.
