Brace yourself...
We are an Allied spy, William "B.J." Blazkowicz, who has been captured while attempting to uncover the Nazi regime’s dark experiments during World War II. Imprisoned within the heavily guarded Castle Wolfenstein, B.J. must fight his way through prison cells, secret labs, and fortified strongholds, battling soldiers, guard dogs, and twisted scientific creations. No, you're not dreaming. Rub your eyes in disbelief all you want because we have Wolfenstein 3D running on the Atari ST (enhanced for the STe using the DMA for samples).
The classic ID game has been converted to the Atari ST/e by Reimund Dratwa (The Sirius Cybernetics Corporation), and, in case you're wondering, the gameplay is authentic with ultra-responsive controls. It feels like the same game we remember playing with levels, enemies, and sounds just like in the PC game.
Wolfenstein features 32 colours, authentic texture mapping, and a high-detail mode (activated by hitting the asterisk key on the numerical keypad, but that's only for the Mega STe, Falcon, etc). Sampled sound effects and chipmusic by Mathieu Stempell, and thus truly outstanding, as you would expect.
Sadly, this is incomplete with some missing levels, but what the complete parts are polished and every bit as good as you'd hope. Reimund stayed up most nights coding until 5am and I'm positive he scraped together every last droplet of Atari ST power. I can only imagine what witchcraft was used for its development!
The Atari ST has Wolfenstein 3D. Take a moment to think about this. Wow, get it downloaded right away!
