Abstract: Creature Shock

There's Something Out There...

It is the year 2123 and the massive overpopulation of the Earth has forced the human race to investigate the colonisation of the other planets. To this end the Tribal class survey ships were constructed and each dispatched with its own mission to find mankind a new home. The Myrmidon to Mars, the Aztec to Venus, and the Amazon to the moons of Jupiter and Saturn.

Four years later, almost at the end of its voyage, all contact with the Amazon was lost; all but the faint signal of an emergency distress beacon.

Equipped with one of the new Lynx FTL Scoutships, you must discover what fate befell the most powerful ship in the survey fleet and its crew.

It will state the CD-i Player Rom used during the test, what version of CD-i Emulator was used, which program the Disc Image was created from, specifications of the test PC and also provide screenshots of the emulator in action. Also included is an account of the test and most importantly if the game is playable through CD-i Emulator. Rather than an exhaustive list of tests with various ROMS and different PC rigs it's hoped that this section gives some insight into the progress of CD-i Emulator. For the most recent updates to CD-i Emulator and compatibility it's suggested you visit the CD-i Emulator Homepage.
