Tower Toppler OS4:

In this game you have to help a cute little green 
animal switch off some kind of "evil" mechanism.
The "power off switch" is hidden somewhere in 
high towers. 
On your way to the target you need to avoid a 
lot of strange robots that guard the tower.

 That sounds all like a normal jump and run game. 
What makes this game different is that you walk
arond the tower which is revolving on the screen,
so that you only see the 180° that are 
currently visible.

The game is a reimplementation of the old game 
known as Tower Toppler or Nebulus. It was 
available for PC, Atari, C64. The author was 
J.M.Phillips and was published by Hewson software. 
I have seen the PC version on quite a few 
abandonware sites. But it is only a DOS version 
and uses ugly graphics.

Here are a few shots of some of the 
available original versions:

Some info about the os4 port:

This port was a pita to do , had my share of 
practicing linux paths for a decade or so now :-(.

Big thanks to everyone that helped me with getting
 the final touch done , big kudos to Frak 
(jonny Høgsten) and AlexC for keeping up with me ;).

The game should work properly now but not 
everything has been tested 100% as i am abit 
sick of it as it is atm though i have my usual 
testers on the case and ofcourse "YOU!" so report
back if there is any problems that might be my 
fault (like the untested Editor) , bug reports 
must go to tony.aksnes()broadpark.no .

Have fun guys.


1.1.2a compiled and uploaded by Spot / Up Rough. Big thanks to Toaks for the
original port.
