Project-X

Project-X was a scrolling shooter game for the Amiga computer released in 1992.

Developed by Team 17, it was regarded as one of the best games for that platform, both for its technical excellence in graphics and sounds, and for its difficult and interesting gameplay.

In classical scrolling shooter fashion, players controlled a spacecraft battling with hundreds of alien ships. Various power-ups, numerous in the first level but increasingly rare afterwards, permitted an exponential increase of the spacecraft's seven different weapons (Guns, Buildup, Side shots, Homing missiles, Plasma, Magma, Laserbeam).

The game was composed of five levels. Many players never completed the second one (which had a very difficult ending), and most of the rest never went past level three.

When Team 17 realized this, they released Project-X SE, a special edition with the difficulty toned down.


Also, an internet group dedicated to exploring the supernatural with claims to access to realms and beings supernatural in nature.
