Desert Strike "Campaign 5: Supergun (MS-DOS Only)"
Was anyone aware of this extra campaign only in the MS-DOS version?

https://www.mobygames.com/game/1461/...04/cover-1884/ suggests that the extra level was added to the CD-ROM version, but wasn't on the floppy-based DOS version, so it was probably a case of wanting to make use of a tiny proportion of the extra space. If the new level is at the end of the game, presumably it's the hardest of them all? The fact that it wasn't included in later remakes suggests that it wasn't well-received.

It would be interesting if the data from the DOS version could be used in some way to get the 5th Campaign on Amiga. Last edited by Whitesnake; 12 August 2024 at 17:05. |

Apparently Jungle Strike on the PC had an extra level as well... the "Environmental Disaster" campaign

Wow, I did not know that. It would be awesome if it could be ported.
