ABOUT THE GAME

Spherical Worlds is a shooter game for the Commodore Amiga, published in 1996, copyright (c) 1996 by “4Matted” / “Future Creations” / “NEO Software GmbH”. The authors are Zvonko Tesic, Goran Stetic and Mirko Rizman.

The game begins in a giant alien space ship attacking human-populated colony called LV-427. You control spherical battle droid with the purpose of destroying the alien threat from inside their ship. But your task is not easy - there are various droids on-board to stop you.

Game has top-view. As it has smooth movement (not just smooth scrolling) it gives you great feeling of speed, and playability. Additionally, enemies have various intelligence, from slow and stupid to fast with guns/mines.

However, you have enough fire power to deal with them. Many weapons you use are different one from each other. And there are also a few extras, like guided missiles and nukes. Special weapon screen with rendered rotating weapon images is used for fitting additional equipment and weapons.

Sounds follow the game and have a great influence on raising game level of realism.

BACKGROUND STORY

In the distant future, the other planets colonized by Earth were on their remarkable way of growth in all the branches of science, culture, politics and economy. Ancient knowledge was understood and accepted. Human race has found a new energy resources, space travel was no longer a problem. They lived more or less happily for many years to come.

Then, one day, colony’s space communication systems started receiving strange readings on their instruments. Day and night, computers attached on special communication systems were trying to decode those readings. As the time passed, messages were more and more logical. So they found a pattern. Message was comprehensible. It was the message coming from an alien ship, containing information about its current position and heading. It was coming towards Earth. Intentions of those aliens were unknown. The Council of colonies decided that information is highly restricted for public for the time being. Enormous efforts were invested in course of establishing any form of communication with aliens. Decades have passed since. No reply messages were received.

Then suddenly all sensors, satellites, communication systems were overloaded with the same messages as before. But now the message coming from the alien spaceship was saying that they are a few light years away from the Earth. Communication was established on friendly basis. Those aliens were interested in planetary research in this sector of universe. Earth was also included. For many years they were helping human race to progress and develop in all society and science matters. Those days people were living happily and lively, many children were born to live and prosper.

On March 25th, 4530 all contact stopped. People and colony governments were confused. Last message in all colony planets, states, cities was:

“LARGE SPHERICAL OBJECTS ARE ENTERING EARTH’S ATMOSPHERE...”
