What ever happened to "PULSATOR"
« on: February 16, 2003, 11:47:55 PM »
Anyone remeber the mid 90's and the pictures of this shoot em up in a few mags? , well it seemed that ALIVE got the rights for it, and when alive died (or changed into something not worth mentioning :) Apc-tcp.de got the deal, but i talked to him about it (Andreas) and it seems it
is discontinued now.

If there is an person we can contact , or something as i would like to know how far and how much thats allready done, and why its stopped etc.

as the game looked VERY cool.

its a Horizontal 2d Shoot em up (ala Agony,Tzero,PX etc) .....

Whats up with all the hate!

I love those r-type type games, i remember reading stuff about Pulsator in the 90s in AF but nothing even came out about it,

Speaking of apc&tcp, did those guys even release any of those games they was making (Desert Racing, Testament 2 etc) ?

@Paul_Gadd

I understand your sentiment....I wasted MANY a youthful day down the arcade playing R-TYPE! ;-)  ;-)  :-)

Desert racing is finnished afaik, just needs to be tested , preview is in the latest german amiga mag.

For testament 2 , i dont know.
(i havent infact played testament 1 yet, i bought it even)

and apc-tcp.de just published/released CROSSFIRE 2 last month , so they are not innactive at all.

was it ralph smidth who was working on PULSATOR ??? , i belived he is the man behind desert racing (the VOXEl racer)

Hmm... why make a game for the Gameboy Color when they could go Advance? Or is that info a bit out of date?  :-)

Hi

Why dont ask in the APC&TCP-Support-Forum?

i read here only 1-2x in the month :)

Pulsator is canceled. No Chance for a amiga version.

Testament 2 too.

Desert Racing is 99% finoshed. We must only remove bugs than we can release the game

for more question please mail us direct or write in our support-Part....
