The Red Star (Jul 17, 2004 prototype)

2025-11-11T12:50:19Z

Hogsy: Per the linked "original release" thread, the author of the post indicates that this was from TalonBrave.info which indicates it's the same dump I uploaded years ago. This was attributed to the wrong person.

A prototype of Magic Carpet 2: The Netherworlds for MS-DOS.
==Notes==

* On the main menu in the bottom middle, there aren't any bloody skulls like there are in final.
* It doesn't seem to be possible to input a name, or load or save the game.
* The music for the main menu appears to be different?
* There's nothing on the menu to tell you what each option does.
* Cursor on the menu is different.
* No hints for joystick or keyboard options on the menu.
* On clicking the planet button on the top left, it just takes you immediately into a level.
* The levels mentioned in the readme don't appear to entirely align with what the levels are?
* In the high-resolution mode, the menu presented when hitting 'i' doesn't appear to be finished?
* When pausing the game, there's no menu.
* Hitting escape just immediately quits the current level.
* There's no options menu. Everything has to be changed via keyboard shortcuts instead.
* Fonts used in-game are different, and smaller.
* Some additional buttons in the input menu seem to be missing in this build.
