Cyborg

Description

Cyborg is a 1-player text adventure with arcade elements for the Acorn Archimedes.

The player is dashing to the rescue to save some poor sole in distress, when the next thing they know they have crash-landed on a droid-infested planet, shot down from the laser blast from a Mk IV Cybernetic Android, a Cybernaught. The player's ship has been disabled because its power source, Xylenium Crystals, was destroyed in the crash. The player must explore the planet, find new Xylenium Crystals, repair their, and blast off into space.

During the arcade component, the player controls their robotic suit from a 1st person perspective, and does combat with enemy robots. There are four arcade levels: desert, forest, street, and reactor. The player's score in these arcade components determine how difficult the text adventure segment is between arcade levels, with 3 different difficulties based upon player performance.
