Additional PlusPak: B.U.G.S. information:
You must save the universe from Bill's Unbelievable Ghastly Spaceships!
The evil Bill wants nothing less than to rule the universe and you are Earth's
only hope. Take command of the defender and blast the BUGS from the galaxy.
50+ levels and boss bugs stand in your way. Many hours of fun are in this
original OS/2 arcade game. Great graphics! Great sound! The perfect game for
letting off some steam. A better Galaga than Galaga!
Here's what the reviewers have said about PlusPak: B.U.G.S.
Colin Hildinger (OS/2 Ezine volume 2 number 7)
The game has many similarities to Galaga, but is far from a straight clone
of the classic arcade game. It is well polished and plays well, and since
there are 50 levels for each difficulty (and I still haven't quite managed to
beat it on the easiest level), you are assured of hours of gameplay.
Sacha Peters (OS/2 Computing August 1997)
I appreciated the game. The artwork was meticulously perfect, and the
programming was well done. I believe that Jeppe Cramon and Ingo Guenther did
an excellent job on this game; I would be proud of myself to produce such a
quality product...
Notice: Please read the BUGS.TXT for further information about the Joystick
support in PlusPak: B.U.G.S...
