Cyborg/Instruct

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.

This Level of Cyborg has
been specially written for
the Acorn Computing MegaDisk
and is not available
elsewhere.


Due to space restrictions
on the MegaDisk it is not
as large as the levels in
the full version which
includes 4 other much larger
arcade levels & 3 adventure
stages compressed onto three
discs. This demo does not
contain any adventure stages


The demo runs on all Acorn
32 bit machines including
those with only 1 Megabyte.


The full version requires 2
Megabytes or more. It is
compatible with RISC OS 2 &
3 and includes a hard disc
installation program.


..... SPECIAL OFFER ......


Cyborg has an RRP of �25.95.

Weapons -


Your standard weapon is a
GC152L laser aimed by moving
the sight with the mouse.


Move the sight as far as
possible to the left or
right to scroll the screen.


As you play you may be able
to pick up other weapons.


To fire any weapon make sure
it is selected (see later)
and click SELECT.


To select a weapon click
the MENU button until the
right-hand indicator lights
up beside the weapon's icon
in the status panel at the
top left of the screen.


A weapon is available if the
left-hand light beside it is
lit.


If you look at the weapon
status panel at the moment
you should see that the only
weapon available is the
laser which is, naturally,
the selected weapon.


To activate your tractor
beam to pick up objects and
operate switches etc. click
the ADJUST button and the
sight will change. Aim at
the object and click SELECT.


Click ADJUST again to turn
the tractor beam off.


The red bar at the top of
the screen is your energy
level. Your energy is used
by firing your weapons and
by being hit by enemy fire.


The energy level can be
restored by picking up
energy pods.


The blue bar shows the
amount of air remaining in
your CyberSuit. If the air
supply runs out you'll die.


Some of the creatures you
will encounter are classed
as FGA's - Friendly Green
Aliens! You should avoid
shooting these as this will
incur a penalty in the form
of lost credits and worse!


The aim of this demo level
is to escape from the
dungeon by collecting FOUR
Xylenium crystals. As each
one is collected a crystal
indicator above the door at
the far right side of the
level will light up.


When all four are lit click
the switch beside the door
and it will open and allow
you to escape...


.... GOOD LUCK ....
