Resolution 101





Let's kill bad guys!

Resolution 101 was developed by Astral who made Horror Zombies From The Crypt and Archipelagos. They portray a future that is a crime-ridden hellhole, displayed using gorgeous vectors for a grim scenario. We are an ex-criminal turned good, and it's our job to hunt down the baddies in our antigravity squad car.

Just like any Van Damme or Stallone movie, expect action and explosions! Use your car radar to help map this urban jungle. Whenever you kill anything, they drop their stash for you to collect - which angers the drug lords that will pop up on your monitor display. It's now that you realise your job is to eliminate everyone!!

Control is best with the mouse: use it to view your crazy world, with the left button accelerates and the right fires a weapon. This is excellent and works perfectly; far better than the joystick. The graphics are superb using such a fast and smooth 3D engine. I must say, it's great when the face of drug lord appears - so comical. The sound effects are great, as is the music, which I love (you can hit F7 to flip between these).

This is one of the best first-person shooters for the Atari ST. It's fantastic, with no overly complex objectives to get in the way of the enjoyment. I love zooming through the city, which is always speedy for a satisfying chase. Resolution 101 is one of the most frantic and thrilling shooters I have ever played.


Play this fantastic shooter - floppy & hard disk



This baddie looks like something from Dr Who, so let's zip around him and zoom away!



That guy looks like my old Computer Studies tutor from college. Spooky!



Each level features great animations of the drug lords taking a hit... Nice developers, really!!
