Marsmare: Alienation 128k (50 fps engine) (2020) Walkthrough (100% completed) + Review, ZX Spectrum

Huge playlist archive with games from 2020: Yandex Retro Games Battle 2020: The history for this game starts in the very cool looking intro where we see an UFO kidnapping somebody. That somebody is you, and the game begins with you breaking out of a glass cylinder, and getting into a fight with an Alien. You beat up the Alien and you see a blaster, so next step is to get the blaster. You are trapped in a laboratory somewhere on Mars, and the only way to escape is to break out and steal an UFO. This is easier said than done because this is a huge 128k game with 90 screens, and you need to find 25 fuel units and 20 crystals to be able to start the UFO. At the top left of the screen you have your health, showed as your head, which can be refilled by collecting extras, and at the top right you have the ammo display for the blaster. More ammo is also available for picking up. You have to find and shoot a lot of power supplies for disabling the power and open up for locked areas. This means that there will be some backtracking, but this is very limited and mostly you are on the move to new places. The game consists of five different locations: laboratory, caves, factory, spaceport and the surface of Mars, and to find your way you can press “M” to see a map. The map only shows where you have been and not unexplored areas, but most important is that it shows where the power supplies are located. You will need to find a spacesuit to be able to exit through airlocks and get out, and you will also need to find a jetpac to be able to get to the surface. You have unlimited lives and you can find computers to activate checkpoints. If you die you will start at your last activated checkpoint, you keep what you have collected before the checkpoint, but the stuff you have collected after activating the checkpoint will you have to collect again. On your quest you will meet eight different very well animated types of enemies as well as tons of mechanical lethal stuff. The sprite you control moves at fast speed and everything moves slick and smooth. The graphics is stunning, extremely detailed and polished, and with clever use of color to minimize clash. This is a super game with many screens and lots of objectives to fulfill and it plays and controls extremely well. The music is excellent and at the start you can select between English, Russian and Spanish language. The game was made by Drunk Fly in 2020. Rating = 96% Download here:
