!QuarkDemo/!Help

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Quark Shoot-'em-up Demonstration
By Oregan Software Developments

Quark is Oregan's completely new shoot-'em-up, and is guaranteed to blow your mind. This is a demonstration version of the complete game, reviewed on page 68 in the magazine.

Run this application to open up a directory containing the Quark Demo, and an instruction file called QuarkHelp. Read this file for more details of the game, and of a special offer exclusively for subscribers to Acorn User.

Note: For 1Mb users, you may find that you do not have enough memory to run the game. If this is the case, you should copy the game itself to another disc, reset your machine and run the game from there.
