Here is a PDF document of the original game manual Check out this Midi Maze fanzine (It's in German but Google Translate will help!) Midi Maze is one of the best games I have featured here on AtariCrypt. Single-player is welcome and works very well but Midi Maze comes into its own when linked with other Atari computers. There is nothing I enjoy more than a first-person shooter and Midi Maze certainly packs its own unique punch. Sound effects aren't going to win any awards but they do their job. Frame-rates are fast with exceptionally smooth movement and I was impressed to see the baddies have a shadow thus adding some perspective. The walls might be paper-thin and without any texture or ambient lighting, but do remember just how old this game is. Those with midi cables and other Atari STs can invite friends over with the potential to link 2-16 computers, which is quite staggering for an 80s deathmatch!! Those without midi cables can play in Solo mode which allows up to 15 computer-controlled bots with three levels of AI. You can use either the joystick or mouse - but I personally think the joystick works the best. The controls are rather straightforward and very easy to learn. Shoot them before they shoot you - the last sphere "standing" wins! It takes place inside a maze of smilies who roam looking for our blood so ignore their happy faces because they're anything but nice. Midi Maze hit the shelves in 1987 thanks to Xanth FX and was an early taste of multiplayer first-person gaming. Sound effects are great as is the music which I love - you can hit F7 to flip between these. I must say it's great when the drug lord appears on your screen - so comical. The graphics are superb using such a fast and smooth 3D engine. This is an excellent system which works perfectly and far better than the joystick. Left button accelerates and the right fires our weapon. It's now that you realise your job is to eliminate everyone!!Ĭontrol is best with the mouse: use this to view all around your crazy new world. Whenever you kill anything, they drop their stash for you to collect - which angers the drug lords that will pop-up on your monitor display. So, just like any Van Damme or Stallone movie, you should expect action and lots of explosions! Use your car radar to help map this urban jungle. We are an ex-criminal turned good and it's our job to hunt down the bad guys in our anti-gravity squad car.

#Wolfenstein 3d floppy disk windows
There was Windows 3.11 at that time but I didn't have it :DĮeeeh I miss the amount of diskettes needed for Mortal Kombat or Lotus which was kind of Need for speed for that time.
They both required 2 floppy disks to boot first the 'Kickstart' disk which is a disk operating system, and then 'Workbench' which was much like Windows. I also had a few Amiga computers (a 1000 and then a 500). Probably much faster than the current ones, anyway :) I wonder what kind of Windows version we would have if it could fit on a 1,44 MB disk. These days I tend to forget where I have stored downloaded stuff until I accidentally find it while looking for something else.Īnd the capacity was 1,44 MB per disk and took like forever to load into the computer. I had a huge library on my wall stored alphabetically and always found what I was looking for.
