I used to play this game way back in the 1995-97 stage, when the demo came with a Compaq Presario desktop (at a friend's place).
The bugger refused to give me the CD and with it being 5 MB, I couldn't fit it into 4 floppy drives Sad
This was ages ago, when I didn't even own more than 3 floppy disks and they were quite expensive for a school kid Razz

So anyway, I used to often think about that game (it just used to come out of no-where..) and despite my efforts, I never had enough information to find it.

I dunno what happened today, but I started going through the wikipedia chronological list of games.. selected every sci-fi game from 1993 on and I found it 15 links down :DDDD

Anyone else played this game?
I'm just starting to re-learn the game (I played it only when I could go over to my "friend's" house.. ), so if anyone else wants to join in, that would be fun Smile

A copy of the game demo can be found on http://www.galliusiv.com/Gallius_IV/Downloads.html
The full version (without the vids/sound files) = https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25855891/deadlock.zip

I know my minefields.. but I'm a chaff sweeper.
I used to curse when I got stuck in traffic... till I realised I AM traffic.
