GAMES DESCRIPTION
UFO was realised in ECS for the floppy version (5 disks), AGA on floppy
(4 disks!?!) and the CD32 game (5.17megs).
The AGA version is almost identical, only difference are NonVolatile
saves, joypad non vital additions, intro and autonames typing.
The game dont works fine with CD32 emulators on amiga, it quits, and
dont want to save more than one time.
The game works a lot better when used installed on amiga, and lightly
modified!!!!!
Ufo CD32 supports 3 languages by menu, not CD32 system:
English, German, French.
It can be played by mouse, or joypad (it uses a simple mouse emulator+some
enhancements).
The game take A LOT OF BLOCKS to save.
Ufo is a great great strategy game, but really really too slow on CD32!
FastMem incredibly speed up the game.
Easy to learn (you dont even need to read the doc!). It is very interresting!
you are the world organization that
must learn and destroy UFO attacks! most of the time, the game is the
team that should destroy all ennemies.
That happens when you crash an UFO after seeking him with your interceptor,
or when they terrorize a town.
Very detailled, you control a lot of elements in the game! You got
a cool Ufopedia that growns with your discoveries.

Game title.... |
 |
Select your language |
 |
Main screen |
 |
Choose a site, by rotating the world to build your new base |
 |
Let's build our base next where I live :) !!! (the blue dot) |
 |
The floppy version not so much difference heh? |
 |
Here come my base, already build, in rookie mode |
 |
Another base, from the floppy version not so different heh? but you can choose your name! |
 |
The soldier list, assign them in your transporting spaceships |
 |
Loading stuff in the Skyranger, your ship for transport, already filled with a good crew and their weapons |
 |
Inside the Skyranger, from an advanced game from the floppy version (hey they got plasma technology) |
 |
Assign the weapons of your Interceptor, the war planes dedicaced to the UFO chase |
 |
The scientists research for new technology |
 |
An advanced research from the floppy version |
 |
The engineers will make the stuff you just discovered with research |
 |
You can buy guys or materials from private companies in the world |
 |
Your great Ufopaedia, will grow up when discovering alien technologies... |
 |
Your great Ufopaedia, the Interceptor page, of course, not all the pages are so hand drawed! |
 |
When you bring back alien from missions, you can research on it, and learn stuff in the Ufopaedia (Floppy version) |
 |
You must be good to learn such stuff!!!! (Floppy version) |
 |
Not a lot of options, heh? |
 |
In fact, you earn cash by beeing good, from all the countries. You can loose when you are too bad, and then the countries refuse to pay. heh you're a world compagny man! |
 |
DAMNED! my first UFO detected |
 |
Ok, i sent the interceptor (Yellow dot) to the Ufo (Red dot) |
 |
The aerial combat, not really cool! all is pretty automatic! u just have to choose between close, standar or agressive attack, follow him, leave him, or see him. missiles are fired automatically when the UFO comes to the limit... if you crash an UFO on lands, you should send your team to destroy the alien and stole technology. |
 |
Ok, the interceptor come back from the crash site (yellow cross) |
 |
I send the skyranger filled with soldiers to the crash site, all names like that, are automatically written by the game, for the CD32 version. |
 |
Let's go to the site |
 |
The complex assigments for the weapons |
 |
Advanced equipment from an advanced mission! (Floppy version) |
 |
One turn for aliens, one turn for you, but both can have reserved some time credits for automatic shooting response... |
 |
First step, game got a complex gestion of heights, so your move cursor is showing that your are a level up from the destination. This operation is in Africa, so you are in desert |
 |
The map of what you explored, you can see 7 soldiers in the skyranger, the UFO, and Frank Sharped, almost dead, the white dot next to the UFO. He was shot by an unknown fire from left down side |
 |
Let's save him by sending Sarah, here come her capacities. |
 |
Damned! he was too far! |
 |
I sended Sarah, the red [1] on the right down side, is indicating that she is seeing an alien! I click on it to see it too, and now choose a way to fire with the weapon on the right hand. The ways are almost all the same for all weapons... only details change. The % are the chances to shoot, TU stands for Time Unit. In fact, auto shoot fires 4 times... and throwing your cool fusil to the alien is stupid... |
 |
Ok, now choose your target, he is so far, and not at the same level, and hidden by some trees! I surely wont have him! |
 |
In this other mission, from the floppy version, 2 soldiers in different suits are approaching the crashed UFO |
 |
They are inside the UFO! |
 |
In the yard with the usefull tank and cool new suits from alien technology |
 |
Cool, the skyranger landed next to the UFO! here, the option for level height is at max, so you see the top of the ship, not inside |
