Asteroids-style dogfights: Hyper Wings 2.21 (update)
Christian Geldmann's "Hyper Wings" (video) is a shooter developed in assembler, in which two human or computer-controlled combatants fight each other with a control system borrowed from Asteroids. Version 2.2 - tagged as the "final release" by the author - offers the following new features:
- New weapon (gravity bomb): missile which creates a point of high gravity, which attracts only your opponent. Contact with that point recudes energy of your opponent.
- problems with the speed of the intro screen solved.
- extended main music tune
- A new nasty gimmick, which inverts left/right of your Joystick for a short time.
- Extended game intro
- Bugfixes
Hyper Wings has been optimised for the Amiga 500 (1 MB RAM, OCS), but also runs on all other Amigas.
Update: (14.03.2025, 22:10, dr)
Version 2.21 offers better performance and stability.
