Apocalypse II
If it wasn't already common knowledge, this game was recently released at Snes Central.
As from what I've seen from the screenshots, it looks like a revamped Asteroids/Gradius hybrid. I have yet had the chance to try it out. When I do, I'll give my honest opinion.
It's always nice when programmers like Mr. Nicol bring something wonderful to the community and feel confident or apathetic enough to just let it go public.
Thank you, sir.
P.S. I think I accidentally found out a phpBB easter-egg by trying to enter the programmer's first name. Try entering "i.m.o." into the Message Body without periods and pressing Preview. Would be kind of annoying if your name was S.i.m.o.n. |

On the "imo" its done by us. Not by the programmers. Acronyms suck. Just type it out. |

Well, I gave it a try. I wish I had a bit more patience for shooters. Usually they have to be immediately fun, or I just don't play them.
I've tried looking for the prequel to this game, but haven't found one. Has anybody else had any luck?
I wish Evan had a bit more story behind the programming of Apocalypse II. |

Yeah... It's sort or an awkward Asteroid clone. Planets get angry at you and build magnetic charges of rage seeking to erase you from the universe.
I'd give it a C+.
Where the hell is Apocalypse I? Spectrum or Amiga probably... huh? |

I need to play Apocalypse someday.
"Hey, you know that chick that sings 'Angry Johnny?'"
"Yeah?"
"Wouldn't she make a totally excellent horseman of the apocalypse?"
"Not really."
"Well, what if Bruce Willis was fighting her?"
"...yeah. Okay." |
