Would you play a game that not even the developer has mastered? TENSOR
developed by Gary LaTourneau of Palet Software and distributed by Advanced
Idea Machines is such a game.
An elegantly simple game, TENSOR has you merging, destroying, and creating
playing pieces. At the early levels you deal with a few colors of pieces
attempting to score within a short time period. As you proceed up the levels,
more colored pieces are introduced, the number of points you must score goes
higher, and the game moves faster.
TENSOR depends upon fast thinking rather than fast reflexes, making it an
ideal game for men and women, girls and boys, and young and old. It is
definitely a nonviolent thinking person's game. TENSOR is a simple game to
learn, but a difficult game to master. You can play for five minutes or for
hours.
Gary has been a programmer for over 15 years and has been involved in game
development for the last 3 years. But Gary is not your average game developer.
He is disabled with Muscular Dystrophy since birth. From his wheelchair, Gary
develops games on a special keyboard to accommodate his limited strength and
range of motion. Gary has plans for many more interesting games if TENSOR
becomes popular.
TENSOR is currently available under OS/2 native, Windows 3.1, and Windows 95.
The Java version is currently being tested under OS/2 WebExplorer, Netscape,
MicroSoft Internet Explorer, Sun, and many other web browsers.
Further information on TENSOR is available on the World Wide Web at
