Here's some info and a dbs for BattleShips II as well...

Minuous · 10 July 2008, 14:14

I'm curious: what are the criteria for freeware games to be included in HOL? Because obviously not every game on eg. the Fish Disks, let alone Aminet, is in HOL.

killergorilla · 10 July 2008, 14:36

Well from my experience, any PD game can be added to HOL, as long as someone takes the time to get the data/images etc. I've submitted quite a lot of info and pictures for PD/Shareware games and they've all been added.

They just aren't a priority.

killergorilla · 10 July 2008, 14:43

Catacomb - dbs attached, info below

Author: Peter Gage
He doesn't credit anyone else for music/gfx etc.

Players: 1
HD Installable: Yes
License: Shareware
Version: 1.6 (The Latest version as of 02/01/1992), there may be newer versions but I've not found one. Manual doesn't mention any older versions either.

Notes:
The game is available on Fred Fish Disk 666

The address to send money to states "Peter Gage, Cornerstone Software"

The manual mentions two other games by Peter Cage: Feeding Frenzy & Intrepid.

killergorilla · 10 July 2008, 15:40

Last one for the day...

This time "The Intrepid"

Author: Peter Gage, again a sole project. Again it's "Cornerstone Software"

Says that the game was made using "The Director", it's a very similarly structured game to Catacomb so that may have been made using the same tool.

Players: 1
HD Installable: Yes
Version: V1.5 (Latest version as of 1/20/1992)
Says Copyright 1991 all over the docs so was probably first released in 1991.

Looks like they've all been added now, including one I didn't post about! - Zerberk (http://hol.abime.net/5712)

I couldn't find any decent information on Omega to pass on so that's been left out.
