Launch Game! █ █ █ █ 2. View Intro! █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ Option number 1: will launch game like a standard cracked exe. █ █ █ █ Option number 2: will launch our crack intro and upon exiting, █ █ █ █ the game start will start normally. █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ This is our solution, on how we wanted to integrate a cracktro █ █ █ █ with the cracked game content. We could have made it without █ █ █ █ the menu screen, by starting the cracktro directly and then on █ █ █ █ exit, then game would start. That method will not work today. █ █ █ █ Because of so many different PC configurations and Windows █ █ █ █ versions, which could for more or less unknown reasons cause █ █ █ █ problems running our cracktro. We didn't wanted our cracktro █ █ █ █ to be a problem on launching the game EXE. The best solution █ █ █ █ is to give sceners those 2 choices above. Our solution will █ █ █ █ not alter the command line functions of the original game EXE, █ █ █ █ if such commands are present in the original version. █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ This is how the future of our cracks will look like. This is █ █ █ █ not meant to make the launch of future game titles more █ █ █ █ annoying. - this is done to bring back some scene spirit into █ █ █ █ the scene. A spirit which goes back to the origins of the █ █ █ █ scene, where independent pioneer sceners started to embed █ █ █ █ their nicknames into the games. They simply did this to show █ █ █ █ others what they accomplished. It soon became more and more █ █ █ █ advanced, as these independent people teamed up in groups, to █ █ █ █ build and attach their own programmed introduction screens █ █ █ █ inside the games. Thus, crack intros were born and since then █ █ █ █ have been a major part of the scene. Sadly, in the last couple █ █ █ █ of years this trend has fallen and cracktros became a niche █ █ █ █ thing. █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ Our best wish is to revert this rather bitter tendency and █ █ █ █ encourage other groups to bring back this great, great █ █ █ █ tradition of the scene to it's formal glory. █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ Concluding, we want to show others, that a pre with just an █ █ █ █ ordinary NFO file and group tag of the release directory █ █ █ █ totally misses the true point of what scene can and what █ █ █ █ scene should be. Our launch menu conception, intermixes the █ █ █ █ best aspects of two worlds - a homage to tradition while █ █ █ █ maintaining a complete compatibility & versatility of a █ █ █ █ typical cracked EXE. █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ We want to stress out, that we took the liberty to include █ █ █ █ one of the best Commodore 64 intros, which have been █ █ █ █ converted to Win32 platforms and customized to fit our needs. █ █ █ █ Of course, it have been kept as true as possible to the █ █ █ █ original. █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ Special greetings to The Papillions Incorporated for the █ █ █ █ inspiration! █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ Thank you for reading! █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ _______ __ ___ _____ /\__ █ █ █ █ \ / |/ /_/\_| \ \ _ \ / /_ \/\ /\ █ █ █ █ /\ \/| / / \/\/| |\ \ \//_// / / / / / / █ █ █ █ / \ \| \ \ / \| |_\ \ / / \/ /_/ / /// / █ █ █ █ \____/|_|\_\\__/|___/ / /_/\_/\__/_/\____/ █ █ █ █ twice the fun \/ double the trouble █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ On with the game release information: █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ The story of Twin Sector takes place in a post-apocalyptic █ █ █ █ future where the remains of mankind have been put to █ █ █ █ artificial sleep in cryogenic chambers deep under the █ █ █ █ contaminated surface of earth — until the planet becomes █ █ █ █ habitable again. █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ You as the player must take the role of Ashley Simms, the █ █ █ █ protagonist of Twin Sector. Suddenly awakened by the station's █ █ █ █ security A.I. system O.S.C.A.R., you face the imminent █ █ █ █ extinction of all other still sleeping survivors due to an █ █ █ █ unknown failure in the life support system. According to █ █ █ █ O.S.C.A.R., you are the only person who was able to be woken █ █ █ █ and therefore the only individual capable of saving mankind. █ █ █ █ Within the next ten hours you will need to repair the broken █ █ █ █ main generator of the subterranean bunker system in order to █ █ █ █ reestablish the station's functionality. But there are yet █ █ █ █ unknown forces trying to prevent you from succeeding at all █ █ █ █ costs! █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ Twin Sector is a thrilling physics-based action-adventure █ █ █ █ which allows players free interaction with their environment. █ █ █ █ Using the advantages of the powerful HAVOK-Engine, innumerable █ █ █ █ puzzles, challenges and enemies await the players in a hostile █ █ █ █ and threatening futuristic environment.
