Travel Through Time Volume 1: Northern Lights
Description
Travel Through Time Volume 1: Northern Lights is a racing game for the ZX Spectrum. It works on 128k models only. It has similarities with other games of the same genre like Out Run, WEC Le Mans and Chase H.Q.. It features a large number of short stages with a clear goal to accomplish to get beyond it. There are checkpoint stages, races against the clock, challenges, duels.
During the race, the cars are displayed in detailed monochrome graphics but there are a few elements with its own colour, like the sky or the dashboard. On the other hand, it also features plenty of cutscenes that tell a story between races when the player completes some of the stages. Sometimes it shows some character dialogues and other times backgrounds for some animations use colour much more, but with little to no colour clash.
While the cars are running the game makes engine sounds, and between races it has AY music, that is possible with the hardware of the 128k models.
