Bitman Fighter
The world's greatest text-based beat-'em up
Seven years of development finally paid off for programmer Rhodri Williams this month when he finally unleashed Bitman Fighter on the Freeware gaming community. With over ten extremley violent and amusing death moves plus an array of hidden moves and cheats, it'll keep you going for weeks.
Bitman Fighter draws it's inspiration from games like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter, allowing you to enter countless one-on-one fights to the death. As you progress through the game your progress is monitored by the infamous "Grand Master Bitman" who you will ultimatley face in the ultimate battle to decide who really is the ultimate Bitman Fighting Championship.
The Kirun Network could hardly believe it when the legendary Bitman Fighter first arrived. Pushing QBASIC to it's limits whilst still keeping the program size down to a tiny 64k, this is a breath of fresh aie in the days of 200Mb installs. Not being paid per line of code (or at all) meant that he was not motivated to flesh out the code. And don't think that freeware means a drop in quality - this is as good as most DOS shareware programs, and no beat-'em-up shows the originality this game oozes.
Minimum specs: IBM PC-AT, 2-colour text screen, keyboard, 64k
